Picked mine up at Walmart today. Of about 10 stores in my area....I found the only one. :D
[Nexus 10 General] TheShoura:
Out of curiosity, do they even have em in stock? My local staples had a display unit but no stores in the state had inventory. 32 gig is cool, but I wound up grabbing a local 16GB sealed for store price :D

haha, no - old acquaintance. That's a rack you can never forget. I cope by just looking at it all the time :p

You want full-res?
[Nexus 10 General] nhasian:
I was at the Walmart at Power Rd & 202 in AZ today and I saw they had the Nexus 10 in stock. I know it is out of stock at the google play store so I figured I'd let you guys know.
[Nexus 10 General] TheShoura:
God damnit lol that store is right next to me. I went to the one north of it and asked them to check every store for me and the person I spoke to said nobody had it.... I'd have preferred the 32GB version >_> I cant return the one I got
[Nexus 10 General] pappy97:
In the DFW area, there are plenty of Walmarts that have the 32GB version in stock. From my desk I can order and pick up today from just about any Walmart.

But I want the 16GB version at the regular price. I think these $100 differences between 16GB and 32GB versions of tablets are ridiculous. The Nexus 7 16 vs. 32 difference is $50 bucks and I found that so tolerable that I got the 32GB version for my wife who wanted a new 7 inch tablet.

But I want the Nexus 10 and don't want to pay $500 for it. Guess I have to be patient.
[Nexus 10 General] werked:
If you know someone who works at walmart.... 10% discount FTW. :D
[Nexus 10 General] fr0stm0urne:
Depends
[Nexus 10 General] l7777:
While the WM website might show that it is available, it is not really. You'll get a nice "We're sorry but the item wasn't really in stock." e-mail sometime after placing your order.
[Nexus 10 General] JustJoey:
I had set up an alert at nowinstock.net and I received an email this morning saying it was in stock at Walmart.

I ordered it right away and it is in processing status now.

Just went back and it is out of stock again...

Status just changed to shipped.

It looks like they are actually in stock once in a while.

Anybody who is interested in buying one should probably try nowinstock.
[Nexus 10 General] l7777:
An update, I gave the site to store ordering another try with another store and actually got one. I guess it's worth trying multiple stores but I wouldn't assume an in stock status just because it claims to be available "today".
[Nexus 10 General] NOSTALGIA:
i really crave for this baby.....
[Nexus 10 General] KerryTankersley:
Does the employee discount apply to the N10?
[Nexus 10 General] werked:
Yes, sure does. :D

---------- Post added at 05:45 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:40 AM ----------

Definitely don't assume that bc it says they are in stock that they truly are. One store I went to supposedly had 6 on hand. They had 0.
[Nexus 10 General] SplicedX:
if anyone is in the central New Jersey area, the Manville Wal-Mart has at least three in stock.
[Nexus 10 General] daLareid:
Time's either going really slow, or I'm already growing tired of waiting for the Nexus 10.
[Nexus 10 General] zhangsiyan12134:
Any news about Canada?:confused:
[Nexus 10 General] Ingram85:
I'm wondering if Google are going to actually say anything about distribution issues at all, it hasn't been in stock in the UK for nearly a month now but with the 'communication' giant being so tightlipped they are going to lose a lot of potential customers who will simply tire of waiting and go elsewhere (ie. Me)

Do they even announce when it's due to be back in stock or is it a case of checking each day in the hope that it's finally available? It's truly unfathomable how a product like this can be so hard to get, it really shouldn't be. Such a shame.
[Nexus 10 General] Lipp24:
K

I'm in the same boat as you, it's ridiculous that we in the UK just can't go and buy one, either from Google play or in the shops. I tried multiple times on release date and also early December, I've now given up and bought a note 10.1, at least if mine developed a fault I can just exchange it in a physical store, not like the unfortunate nexus 10 owners that get stuck in the rma Google loop of exchanges, not to mention the debit card crap where they hold more of your money whilst they send you ANOTHER faulty unit!. It's a absolute disgrace, I will never buy another nexus device again. Rant over!!
[Nexus 10 General] hihihehe:
lol. it's been out of stock for 2 months in australia here
[Nexus 10 General] Ingram85:
How did you work that out? It only went on release around mid november?

Id go get the note 10.1 tomorrow but that screen really lets it down and I'm not a big fan of touchwiz, everything else is superb though. A Note 10.1 HD would give me food for thought though but probably againt my better judgement my heart is set on the n10, what I dont understand is why you can buy n7's in different stores around the uk but the nexus 10 is so far exclusive to the play store.

Im giving google two weeks to sort this nonsense out then im getting something else. Just truly a bizarre and unnecessary situation in this day and age.
[Nexus 10 General] Boywunda44:
Google Play isn't even responding to e-mails...such ****ty service....

But regardless, I'm getting one, so I have no choice but to wait it out...
[Nexus 10 General] werked:
Walmart?? Don't deal with Google. Unless you do not want a 32gb.
[Nexus 10 General] Boywunda44:
Not in Canada - at least not listed yet.
[Nexus 10 General] jodvova:
Happy new year, you gadget freaks !
[Nexus 10 General] varuun:
good luck with walmart

Hi,

bought mine 32 gb version at walmart online. cost me same 499$ and free shipping. arrived at doorstep after 3 days.

walmart doesnt carry 16 gb version somehow.
[Nexus 10 General] mfratella:
I admit, I'm too lazy to sort through 1700 replies in this thread to find if this has been discussed.

I have Amazon credit and want to use it to move from my TF300 to the Nexus 10. Any ideas on when it will be available at a reasonable price on Amazon? I seeit for $630 right now, but that is ridiculous.
[Nexus 10 General] kbluhm:
Probably not for a while... at least not till the demand stabilizes and seeing them in-stock on Google Play becomes a normality.
[Nexus 10 General] mfratella:
Wonder if I should just go for the TF700 and forget the Nexus. I hate these artificially created shortages.
[Nexus 10 General] daLareid:
I hear you, and yeah I've been waiting for the Nexus to be available through Amazon.com at retail place but such thing doesn't seem to be coming any soon. And I'd recommend looking on the Samsung Note 10.1 seems like a better option than the TF700, they're both 'relatively soon to be outdated models' plus the TF700 has less power specs.
[Nexus 10 General] martin_secretary:
Do not - I repeat *do not* get a Asus TF700. They tricked everyone by putting high end specs for everything except the storage which is the equivalent of a ****ty SD card. It was a pain to use that tablet - I sold it before its value dropped any further and am now waiting for the N10...
[Nexus 10 General] kbluhm:
+1... I got a TF700, terrible decision! Returned it to buy my Nexus 10, fantastic decision!
[Nexus 10 General] vujkovicv:
One of my buddies just sold his to get a n10. Best decision I made as well. It's a great tablet. I have a descent msi lap top that's running well and I surf the Web without noticing the difference between the two.
[Nexus 10 General] zainsy:
Thanks Dude :good:
[Nexus 10 General] Ares33x:
I just recently bought my 32 GB Nexus 10 for $499 + tax on Dec 31st at Staples directly in the store here in MA. I was surprised to see they had some in stock in both the 16 and 32 GB flavors.

There were a couple other Staples in the area with them but at low stock, but in stock (gave them a call to check). So it might be worth poking around different Staples stores using their in store availability checker and giving them a call.
[Nexus 10 General] Buck1969:
Just spoke with a guy in the Staples near my office in Manhattan, and he tells me the stores should have stock next week. Take that with a huge grain of salt, of course, but hope could be around the corner.
[Nexus 10 General] HenryHSH:
Just ordered mine on the US Playstore!
[Nexus 10 General] dale_cooper:
Can't believe they're in stock, just ordered a 16gb on play store!!
[Nexus 10 General] Ares33x:
Your right, They are back in stock on the Playstore, both flavors! I can finally tell my friend to order one. Thanks!
[Nexus 10 General] Buck1969:
And just like that, 32GB model ordered!
[Nexus 10 General] Ingram85:
Fingers crossed it becomes available on the uk store aswell (pretty please google) im frantically cicking refresh, ready to go, but I highly doubt us uk'ers will have any joy anytime soon.
[Nexus 10 General] daLareid:
I don't even know if I should pre-order already, think I'm gonna wait one more week for CES 2013 see if there's anything worth waiting for, hopefully if there's nothing good worth waiting for there's still stock lol.

Nexus 10 16GB & 32GB available through Google Play Store (USA only) as of Jan 2nd, 2013.
[Nexus 10 General] vcbacon@hotmail.com:
Wow, no info and suddenly the Nexus 10 is available!
[Nexus 10 General] daLareid:
Has anyone who bought this today, got a notification of when the tablet is actually shipping?
[Nexus 10 General] sovereignty68:
Try calling them. Email doesn't work out very well for Google. They take forever to respond to your email.
[Nexus 10 General] martin_secretary:
Dammit not available on Play Store in Canada yet. Hopefully tomorrow..
[Nexus 10 General] Buck1969:
My confirmation email gives an estimated shipping date of "less than one week." I'm hoping that it arrives early next week, but I'm being realistic and would not be surprised if it took until next Friday.
[Nexus 10 General] daLareid:
Great, if it ships in less than a week, you will probably get it until next week. Please do let us know if the tablet comes with no issues, I'm hoping these are brand new tablets with no lightbleed or any other common N10 issues.
[Nexus 10 General] mandel4026:
Nexus 10 is now Shipping in "Less Than One Week"

I just ordered a Nexus 10 from the Play Store tonight, January 2, 2013! I had been checking since Thanksgiving and this was the first time I could even place the order because every other time I looked it was "sold out." My order went through, I got a confirmation number, and Google said it would ship in less than one week, with two day shipping. We'll see . . . .
[Nexus 10 General] Baka no Kami:
Reserved a 32GB earlier today at a Wal-mart about an hour's drive from me. Only saw it because I was looking on my Xoom which still had it's location set to my fathers place.

30 minutes after my card was charged they became available in the Play store again. I suspect the entire shortage was an attempt to keep me from getting one. Once I did there was no reason to hold them back anymore. Sorry guys.
[Nexus 10 General] zhangsiyan12134:
Still no chance for Canada.:(
[Nexus 10 General] EvoYas:
Ordered one right away after I saw a thread here about it being available again. And a few mins ago got an email that the item has been shipped, yet when I click the tracking number UPS cant locate the item. Gotta love that one lol.

Anyways, hopin to get it by Friday or Sat.
[Nexus 10 General] Buck1969:
Just got a UPS tracking number indicating the device was shipped this morning, though it is not yet active in the UPS system. Presumably that means it's siting at the loading dock at a warehouse ready for pickup. I guess that means I'll have it on Monday (or tomorrow if the gadget gods believe I was a good boy in 2012)!!
[Nexus 10 General] dale_cooper:
Yep - me too... google is getting better at this. Under promising and over delivering.
[Nexus 10 General] daLareid:
That's great, it would appear Google is handling their orders much better than before, hopefully the units are also new and better like I stated before, so please do let us know if you still go to troubles such as open boxes, bleed light, etc.
[Nexus 10 General] EvoYas:
Bought it yesterday on play store and its shipped now yay
[Nexus 10 General] HenryHSH:
Louisville, KY, United States	01/03/2013	4:24 P.M.	Departure Scan

Scheduled Delivery:

Friday, 01/04/2013, By End of Day

Please let this be true.
[Nexus 10 General] daLareid:
Seem like they're now dealing with the orders properly, and if it's 2 day shipping I'm guessing it will arrive tomorrow. Do let us know how's your n10 :)
[Nexus 10 General] Buck1969:
According to UPS, my device arrived in Newark just after 5 pm. looking good to have it in my hands tomorrow!! Yeah, I'm a bit excited. Now, to explore unlocking and rooting a device for the first time . . .
[Nexus 10 General] SysAdmNj:
Well mine arrived in my town this evening and I should get it tomorrow. I was excited but all these complaints I'm hearing is starting to worry me. Also, the fact that the play store has both versions available for shipping in less than a week still doesnt help the matter. Demand seems low for this device now?
[Nexus 10 General] EvoYas:
Its true, mine shipped from the same place and according to my tracking information I should have it tomorrow. :)
[Nexus 10 General] Ingram85:
16gb version is currently in stock on UK play store! Hurry my fellow uk'ers! Good luck.
[Nexus 10 General] frakki:
Same for France. Canada and Germany are still left out... Thanks for that Google....
[Nexus 10 General] Magus_doc:
I ordered one late Wednesday around 10 pm and just got ups tracking its out for delivery, originally scheduled for Monday... :D now i get to play the weekend nice.
[Nexus 10 General] frakki:
would anybody who receives the n10 today or tomorrow pls leave notes about the known bugs? I mean if they are still existing or not.
[Nexus 10 General] Buck1969:
Mine's "out for delivery" as of 6:30 this morning! Should have it by around noon, based on the usual UPS delivery schedule to my office.
[Nexus 10 General] EvoYas:
Waiting on mine as well, its out for delivery. I will be in it alk weekend will let u guys know if i run into any issues.
[Nexus 10 General] Buck1969:
In my hands - it's charging now (came with a mostly charged battery).
[Nexus 10 General] ClassicJer:
Any idea on where i can buy the nexus 10 in canada?

Google Store is always sold out of the 16gb and 32gb
[Nexus 10 General] Buck1969:
I've now spent a few minutes playing with the tablet and familiarizing myself with things. Yep, there's some light bleed, mostly bottom right corner, that's visible at full brightness on a black screen. I was watching the pre-loaded Ice Age video at a normal level of brightness and it wasn't really noticeable unless I was specifically looking for it. Will live with it for a few days, but I'm doubtful it's going to be a deal breaker or worth going through the hassle of returns. Life's too short, you know?

[Nexus 10 General] EvoYas:
Thats right Buck, I got mine a couple of hours ago as well, fortunately no light bleed for me, its charging now after I set up all my apps and widgets and updated it.

Once its fully charged I will be using it exclusively for my computing needs, instead of a laptop or desktop. Lets see how much of my uses I can get out of it. I gotta say this is the first time I actually like the stock keyboard, so gonna stick to it for a while.
[Nexus 10 General] HenryHSH:
Mine's been Out For Delivery since 6 AM and it's 1:40 PM now.

The fact that I'm still waiting on my package when the UPS it's being delivered from is less than 2 miles away is depressing...

They need a pick-up option. This happens way too often. I never get anything delivered before 5-6PM. :[
[Nexus 10 General] kauka187:
Its out in France now!! Just ordered it on play store. Boom!
[Nexus 10 General] glensta:
Staples Online - ordered right now at 4:10p p.s.t., will be here Monday - customer service rep called me to confirm and advised of Monday delivery :fingers-crossed: :D
[Nexus 10 General] HenryHSH:
I just received my Nexus 10... Took them over 12 hours to get it here... The ****ed up part is that it's been tampered with. One seal was broken and the other worn off. There are fingerprints all over the screen protector and some dirt... I'm so pissed right now.
[Nexus 10 General] EvoYas:
Mine was the same way, but one seal was on perfectly.
[Nexus 10 General] daLareid:
It sucks for you, and it's also bad news to hear this keeps on happening, makes me not want to buy this tablet anymore, cause tbh I would not accept a product that has been tampered with, I've bought plenty of expensive electronic devices through the internet that have never been tampered with so this is unacceptable imo.
[Nexus 10 General] HenryHSH:
It's annoying... But I'll live with it.

Backlight bleed is there for those wondering about the "new" batch. Both bottom corners landscape mode and Top and bottom left corners in portrait. It's not very pronounced and unless the screen is dark and the brightness is high, you won't really see it.

Haven't done much else except for setting up WIFI, so I'll give more impressions later. I'll probably watch Ice Age before I wipe the device... Oh and speakers are great from the nasa youtube videos I've watched.
[Nexus 10 General] Monotypical:
Ordered mine from Google play UK yesterday, dispatched this morning at 5:30am (despite it saying up to a week :D)

what do you reckon the chances are of getting it today?

EDIT: wait a mo, no it hasn't been dispatched, it's actually out for delivery atm :D:D:D

blimey, that was quick.
[Nexus 10 General] werked:
If anyone is around raleigh NC, walmart seems to be picking up there in store stock. Saw 5 or 6 on the shelf in the Smithfield walmart yesterday.
[Nexus 10 General] martin_secretary:
Google's silence is the #1 things that's annoyed me throughout this entire shortage. Waiting in Canada and seeing the n10 become available in almost every other country coupled with fact i bought my mom an iPad 4 yesterday which has better battery life and was available for in store pickup has got me feeling like a sucker waiting for this.

Google, I know it takes time to manufacture and prepare distribution channels but it takes 10 min to write a ****ing blog post detailing what's going on.

Pissed off android enthusiast
[Nexus 10 General] Magus_doc:
I got mine last night around 6:30 p.m. both seals were intact everything was in factory condition, but the device dose have lightbleed. I leave my devices in auto light so in a darkroom the light is dimmed and the light bleed is not visible. Other than this everything else seems to be good
[Nexus 10 General] Monotypical:
Well, apparently, mine was out for delivery today (between the hours of 9am and 6pm), but, alas, I sit here with no nexus :eek:

Bloody TNT, I bet they knocked on one of my neighbours doors and said I wasn't in, and now I'm guessing I'm waiting til Monday
[Nexus 10 General] vcbacon@hotmail.com:
Late Delivery

Ours was supposed to arrive yesterday, but UPS screwed things up.

Now it's supposed to be here Monday, Jan. 7th...so much for 2 day shipping!

Ordered my N10 today with the 2 day shipping so hopefully will get here by tuesday :D

Reading a few of the comments above about peoples being tampered with has left me a little worried though :(
[Nexus 10 General] Bazza_white:
Ordered yesterday but no dispatch on Saturdays. Who's running the logistics fulfillmant any body know ?

I nearly didn't bother, been waiting 2 months for one and ces this week means new products time, some

almost certain to be in production but being a big kid I couldn't wait.

I hope these are not repackaged returns though, if it is its going back for a refund.
[Nexus 10 General] ClassicJer:
Honestly so frustrating not being able to find any nexus 10's in canada and seeing google play store always sold out and theres no information on when it is coming back into stock/ into stores here.

actually considering just buying either the samsung 10.1 or the transformer infinity

is there a big difference between the nexus 10 & the samsung note 10.1 or the Infinity?
[Nexus 10 General] Monotypical:
Really? If it's a return I'd assume they would make sure that it is in fully working condition before it goes out, chances are if it's a return and they're fixed it, it will probably have less backlight bleed or whatever was wrong with it (probably that)

Don't return it for the sake of a few fingerprints, give it a chance, not only for the reason mentioned above but it will also drive up costs for Google, which may drive them away from selling devices in future
[Nexus 10 General] kbluhm:
I bought an Infinity, returned it for my N10. Best decision I've ever made. Can't speak about the Note 10.1, but if it were me I'd study it's development section here closely and see how much attention CM is giving it because TouchWiz BLOWS... but then you'd be giving up a lot of functionality that Samsung baked into it... so I just wouldn't even consider buying one and altogether avoid putting myself into the situation of making such a decision.

This whole availability debacle sucks, though I was extremely fortunate. After returning the TF700 to Best Buy I walked right next door to Staples and bought their last N10 literally minutes later for the same price I'd pay Google minus the shipping.
[Nexus 10 General] ClassicJer:
Thanks for the info!!!! I'm going to buy the N10. gotta wait to find it first though. from what i have heard the N10 hits canada in stores around February . hopefully they come into stock on the google play store sooner then that though.

also thinking of buying the Nexus 4 instead of the S3
[Nexus 10 General] werked:
Are you close to US border?? If so I'd make a day trip and be sure to stop by walmart. :D:D
[Nexus 10 General] ClassicJer:
Im in Montreal. platsburgh Is not too far away. do you think that they would have the N4 or N10?
[Nexus 10 General] werked:
A quick search says they have stock within 50 miles of the Plattsburgh zip. They may in the near future tho so worth making a call every few days to check.
[Nexus 10 General] ClassicJer:
Thanks A lot for the info!!!!! i will for check it out
[Nexus 10 General] bongostl:
In the us, only staples and Walmart are carrying then in store? Is there anywhere else?
[Nexus 10 General] daLareid:
Those are the only retail stores atm.
[Nexus 10 General] chiggerone:
the google play store has them in stock at the moment. I just placed my order for the 32g model. with taxes and 2 day shipping my total was $545
