yup! they did that yesterday but i think it only lasted about a few hours!
[Nexus 7 General] bennor3814:
It also says this on the MacMall Nexus 7 page...

"Order online or via phone. We will ship your order by next Tuesday, July 24, from our warehouse. In stock in our stores in California & Chicago."
[Nexus 7 General] daern:
Yup, me too :thumbup:
[Nexus 7 General] CharliesTheMan:
I went to my local staples (I love in Louisiana in the US) and they had them in stock.
[Nexus 7 General] irrotational:
Some snippets from the uk. I ordered from tesco at around 1 or2 today, and it flicked over to dispatched at 9 p.m. Tonight....

Also Luton airport dixons has 16 of the little buggers and you get some notional discount so they are 193 rather than 199 pounds.

I ALMOST bought another one, but thought I should stick with tesco who have been good so far.

I also have what is laughingly called a pre-order with google but I shall cancel that once I can face the hour long wait...
[Nexus 7 General] footballrunner800:
Just got mine from the Macmall in Torrence, CA. They still had like 30 in stock FYI. Great to be in the nexus club!
[Nexus 7 General] jenskristian:
I just chatted with MacMall to ask of they would ship to Norway. Sadly it's US only.
[Nexus 7 General] ceejay83:
how much was it?
[Nexus 7 General] woshiweili:
I spoke with a rep from MacMall and even though they have a few in stock in their retail locations (you can see how many left in a drop down menu) but they are NOT shipping those to people who ordered online... Also even though the website states that they will ship out orders by next Tuesday 7/24 but the rep I spoke to said he has no idea when they will get it "probably 3-5 business days".

On a related note, I noticed that MIcroCenter's website said that the Houston location has 10+ in stock and is only available for in store pickup. I ordered one for pick up, we'll see how that goes... I did call the location and when I asked if they had any Nexus 7 in stock, this lady immediately responded that they do not. Either the website is lying or she was.

Argh, it shouldn't be this hard for Google to take my $
[Nexus 7 General] cheebah:
I finally got my nexus 7. I went into Macmall in Chicago at like 11am today and the guy said they only had about 5 left (I even mentioned I saw the website said there were like 21 left, but he said he was pretty sure they only had a couple left).

This thing is nice... been playing with it for a while now. Now I just have to figure out whether I'm going to sell the one that's coming in the mail, or just return it...?

There are 3 different Macmall locations in California. I'm sure if you hurry you can get you hands on one
[Nexus 7 General] mi7chy:
Funny I drove by that store the other night looking for one. Actually looked at the store but didn't bother stopping thinking they wouldn't carry an iPad competitor.
[Nexus 7 General] californiarailroader:
No thanks, it's a 500+ mile trip south to get to the nearest one for me :D LOL If he's in L.A. though, he's in luck, there are 3 in SoCal. I have mine though, so I'm in like Flint :D

i dont see a way to add it to a cart though..
[Nexus 7 General] californiarailroader:
That's a weird site, nothing they sell can be ordered, not only that there is no "About us" or "Contact us", I'd be wary of that place.
[Nexus 7 General] kiewee3:
Okay thanks. I surfed around a little more and there's not even a phone #... I just saw it in Google shopping so I wasn't sure
[Nexus 7 General] californiarailroader:
It could be that the company used to exist, as a store anyway and that's all that is left, sometimes companies will have websites up long after they go belly up.

Has anyone seen N7 at target? I have a few coupons I wanna use.
[Nexus 7 General] footballrunner800:
GRRRR. I can't believe I bought it and didn't notice it was 269.99. I'm going to try to get them to price match it to another place if not I'm going to return it before my 15 days are up.
[Nexus 7 General] mi7chy:
Seeing that they recently set up Apple kiosks at Target I doubt you're going to see Nexus 7 there anytime soon before they work out the agreement with Apple and analyze the impact to their Apple sales.
[Nexus 7 General] californiarailroader:
I would imagine the same goes for Amazon, they probably don't want to cannibalize their Kindle and Kindle Fire sales for that, especially considering a new Kindle Fire is set to be released later this year.
[Nexus 7 General] mbh017:
Yes thank you, I will be in California tomorow, I will try to get one of them !! :D

I have another question : the $249 retail price is with taxes included or not ?
[Nexus 7 General] californiarailroader:
Are you in SoCal? That's where all three are. The tax is separate, so add that onto the $249.

[Nexus 7 General] Launchpad McQuack:
Just bought one online in Salt Lake City at RCWilley. They state in stock for pickup tomorrow. ~$18 tax, but no shipping charges.
[Nexus 7 General] NickFritz:
EBGames Australia pre-orders have started arriving for pickup in stores, a week before the real release date :D
[Nexus 7 General] mbh017:
Ok thank you ! :)

Sorry if my question seems stupid but in France (my country), prices in store include all the taxes which is much much simpler for customers !! ;)
[Nexus 7 General] cheebah:
Everything I've heard was that they won't get the second wave until the first or second week of August... which reminds me I have to go into GS to get my $50 deposit back...
[Nexus 7 General] californiarailroader:
That would be cool, are the taxes pretty uniform there? Here, sales taxes vary from state to state, county to county and city to city. What part of France are you from? I'm part French myself, that part of my family came to the states from Quebec, and from France before that. The rest of me is English, Welsh and German, a Euro Mutt :D

[Nexus 7 General] OneDeep:
Staples online says its not SOLD in any local stores. Does that mean that they don't carry them but I can order one??
[Nexus 7 General] zort70:
I ordered one from Tesco this morning, but a few hours later I got a cancellation email.

I phoned up to complain about having a confirmed order and then it getting cancelled and they said their system was having problems getting updated.

Eventually they gave me the Clubcard points I would have got if the order had completed, not much but better than nothing.

I've now ordered from Currys online and have been told it will be delivered Tuesday.

(I'm in the UK if you hadn't already guessed :-) )
[Nexus 7 General] fenturi:
Got tracking number from J&R.com, just so others know that ordered from them..
[Nexus 7 General] californiarailroader:
I am assuming New York City, no? If so, I would definitely hit up Adorama, B&H and J&R in Manhattan, then the usual places, Staples, Best Buy, etc.

---------- Post added at 06:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:41 AM ----------

Currently, they aren't accepting any orders on them online, so you'll have to either find a store somewhere that does have them in stock, or just wait and order one when they come back in stock online. I would keep checking, mine (Ukiah, CA) said they had none the other day, now it shows them having 'low stock'.

[Nexus 7 General] woshiweili:
If you are in the Houston area, the MicroCenter in Galleria has a few in stock. Their website says they have 10+ in stock but I'm not sure how many they really have and it's only available for pickup. I ordered mine last night for pickup and got it this morning! Yes I had to pay about $20 in sales tax but it's worth not having to worry about this anymore. Good luck :)
[Nexus 7 General] mbh017:
Yes I understand taxes are complicated... (In France it's the same taxes for all the country)

And, they offer a 14 day return policy with no restocking fee, even if it's opened.

Buying a Nexus 7 16gb at a local Staples store tonight. A lot of them are receiving their stock so call the ones around you.
[Nexus 7 General] duke333:
Yes same as you, i ordered through ebuyer last week and was told that it will be delivered yesterday, then was told they will be getting stock in first week of August. Then Tesco, with the same messege as you.

In the last hour I spoke with a nice chap from Currys and he told me that they have just got stock in their warehouse and have 683 units available, sorry 682 now.;)

Hope it all goes well, what a mission its been to get a hold the Nexus 7, it better be worth it!!!
[Nexus 7 General] BurnRubber90:
Awesome! I hope my order got shipped (I order the 9th of July), got to ask dad to check it.
[Nexus 7 General] enkur:
Macmall is showing "generally in stock" shipping today. My order status changed from "backordered" to "In process" They must have received stock today.

I gave up on ebuyer, ordered from Tesco yesterday - Received today and £20 off!

Just placed an order through MacMall today for the Nexus 7 and it too says "In process". The product webpage (on MacMall) also indicates "Order online or via phone. We will ship your order today, July 20, from our warehouse," yesterday MacMall had indicated it would ship on July 24th.

I was tipped off and told that Staples would be getting shipments in today. I called around and got the run around, even at the stores that showed them in stock online. A guy at staples finally gave me the low down and told me that they got them in, but couldn't sell them till Sunday? WTF kind of policy is that? Then I came hear out of desperation looking for other retail locations that had it. Saw that some other folks got them at Macmall, so i called the one next to my work and they had just gotten them in and were selling them! XDA to the rescue again! /rant :p
[Nexus 7 General] mistamista2000:
Made a few phone calls today and found 3 Staples in MD with them in stock. Picked up one for me and another for a co-worker. Have been trying to open it for the past 15 minutes. Hate to rip the box and then I saw the unboxing montage video going around...:). If I like it will sell the XOOM LTE.

Anybody in the DC metro area...Staples in Oxon Hill, MD has several. Clinton, MD has one as of yesterday.
[Nexus 7 General] bennor3814:
Looks like MacMall has a floating shipping date. Earlier today when I ordered it indicated they would ship your order by July 20th, just checked the Nexus 7 product page a few minutes ago and they've changed it to July 26th. :(

"Order online or via phone. We will ship your order by next Thursday, July 26, from our warehouse. In stock in our stores in California & Chicago."

Currently my online order from earlier today indicates "In Process". Fingers crossed that it ships today and not on the 26th.
[Nexus 7 General] yanksrock1000:
Called all the local Staples/ Office Depots, and no luck. Some stores said "Low Stock" when I checked online, but I guess they were sold out by the time I called...oh well, hope I don't have to wait too long. Already sold my old tablet, so I'm going Android-less till I find a nexus 7 somewhere.

[Nexus 7 General] Khidr:
Called around a few Staples yesterday, all but one said none in stock. The one I called, nice girl answered the phone, said she'd check the back, came back and said they had 1, I asked her to hold for 20 minutes and she did. As I'm walking into the store they have a prominent sign on the door "due to the overwhelming demand, the Google nexus tablet is out of stock for the foreseeable future, please check back soon." So of course, I'm thinking... crap - that girl had no idea what I was talking about and is probably holding an inkjet printer for me. This was confirmed by the associate I spoke with who said they haven't had any in stock for a long time and only got 5 with their initial shipment. I mentioned who I spoke to, and he flippantly said, "let me get her." She comes over, and he gets all up in her business "why did you tell this guy we had a nexus 7?" she replies, I checked, I thought I saw one, let me go see...

Yup. There was one back there. Probably a manager who set it aside for themselves, but, mine now.

Cancelling the play order was challenging due to the extremely long hold times and automatic hang ups after 30 minutes, but it got done.

The Staples/Target inventory checker was a lifesaver. Loving this tablet.

Anyone want a galaxy tab 7 plus? :)
[Nexus 7 General] bennor3814:
Did you pay extra for overnight delivery? Currently the free USPS shipping option for my order doesn't show a delivery date. Only that it is being sent via "Priority Mail". Last scan for my order indicates it was processed through USPS Sort Facility at location 38199 (Memphis, TN apparently) on July 21, 2012, at 1:04 am.
[Nexus 7 General] khaytsus:
Picked up mine today at Staples, they had a handful in stock. I was a bit annoyed at first that they had put it on hold, yet it was in the stockroom with the rest of them but they had it so no point making a fuss about it. I got the $40 AD&D warranty.

Sat out in the parking lot on Staples wifi and updated OS, apps, played around, tested GPS, downloaded an LCD test app and looked for any dead/stuck pixels, all checked out. :) Letting it charge now.
[Nexus 7 General] cmoG530:
Does this mean, that the July 26 stock date is incorrect??? I don't want to wait that long, but whatever.lol

[Nexus 7 General] bennor3814:
MacMall's shipping date is a moving number. Initially when I ordered yesterday they said they'd ship out on the 20th. Then an hour or two later the web page changed to indicate a shipping date of the 26th. As of right now (3:13pm EST on 7/21/12) the MacMall Nexus 7 product page states; "Order online or via phone. We will ship your order by next Thursday, July 26, from our warehouse. In stock in our stores in California & Chicago."

The MacMall price has fluctuated on at least one occasion as well. At one point (in a screen capture I posted earlier in this thread) the MacMall price was $269.99, then several hours later it went back to $249.00. In that screen capture, taken on the 19th, it showed a shipping date of the 24th.

At no point with MacMall have I seen a firm arrival date for my order other than "2-3 days" for free shipping. And they did apparently ship it yesterday (the 20th).

Cheap Shipping from Walmart!

Looking around for a quicker shipment than 2 to 3 weeks, and cheaper than $12 - $14, I ended up ordering my 16GB from Walmart on Wed. the 18th, with promised delivery next Wed., the 25th. Only 97 cents shipping, direct to my house. They didn't have store pickup when I ordered, but now I see they do - 5 to 10 days after ordering.

Just got home from the Mac Mall in Santa Monica and picked up my Nexus 7! I was fortunate enough to have the floor manager open the shipment they received this morning so I could get one from the second batch of tablets, so far no screen issues of any kind but I've got 14 days to return it if anything arises. This box has the black tape over the clear tape so I'm hoping it was QC'd by google and wasn't found to have any screen issues!

It also came with the $25 play store balance and transformers movie...loving life over here! Now to figure out how to get my PS3 controller to hook up!
[Nexus 7 General] nathris:
Same thing for BC. Both Bestbuy and Futureshop have them, but only the 16GB version. I doubt we'll every see retailers carrying the 8GB versions though, since the profit margin is too slim (Google only makes what? $10 on each sale?)
[Nexus 7 General] yanksrock1000:
A staples about 10 miles away from me had ONE left! I asked them to hold it, they did, and I am now enjoying the nexus 7 :)

Just a tip, ask them to look, even if they say they are out of stock! This store said "No, we have none in stock" but I asked, and they found one!:good:

Hello,

I live in Germany, but will be on business in Milwaukee, WI next week until Friday. (Flight will start in about 10 hours).

Now, where can I buy a Nexus 7 (16 GB) in or around Milwaukee? I read through the thread and did some online research:

Staples seems to be at least 50 miles away (ZIP Code of the Hotel is 53225, Milwaukee West),

Walmart says "Out of stock online" - I can't seem to find a way to see the inventory of stores online.

The best choice seems to be MacMall in Chicago, a 2h drive. I will be on jet-lag, so it would be nice to be able to spend the $$$ closer. Also, Wikipedia says: "The city of Chicago has the highest total sales tax of all major U.S. cities (9.5%).", that would be another 23$ + gas for 200 miles.

I could have it delivered to the Hotel I assume, but that seems to be too unsafe with the delivery times.

Anybody has another idea of a brick and mortar business in and around Milwaukee that actually HAS a device ready for sale?

thanks, qdriver
