[Nexus 6  General] 10pmStalker:
Was the opposite for me. I was strolling through it taking my time making sure everything was correct. Looking at the shipping options and decided if im going to pay $10 to have it shipped I may as well pay a few more to have it overnight. I wasnt even thinking it would sell out as fast as it did. I got lucky.
[Nexus 6  General] djkinetic:
good to know theres still a fellow blue 32gb 10/29 next day limbo member around here :highfive:
[Nexus 6  General] 10pmStalker:
Same here. blue 32gb 10/29 next day
[Nexus 6  General] cornelious2:
Fixed that for you ;)
[Nexus 6  General] KentuckyHouse:
Y'all need to tone down the bro stuff. :p #ImAStalker

What's up fellas? Still waiting on my shipping email. Just hoping that 26th delivery date holds so I've got it in my hands before the long Thanksgiving weekend.
[Nexus 6  General] purpl3rain:
This launch has been nothing short of flawless. 10/10 would be an understatement at this point. Moto and Google :good:
[Nexus 6  General] subarct1c:
Just talked with UPS live chat about my shipment and got this.

.... As I was typing this out I got handed the box....so excited!
[Nexus 6  General] halon17:
11/19 64white here still with no shipping info. My order status date has not changed and zero notification from fedex. Yet i see others saying their starus has changed to the 21st and have shipping info from fedex.

Ugh.
[Nexus 6  General] gtalum:
Best. Launch. EVER.
[Nexus 6  General] Joshnor713:
Morale of the story: Don't trust Google Play and don't order the white one!
[Nexus 6  General] drpancake:
Same still says 11/19 estimated delivery, nothing from fedex or moto
[Nexus 6  General] gtalum:
Haha, true. I'm awaiting a White 64GB from GPS. Not so much as a notification. Chat rep says "will ship by the 21st".

Honestly at this point I hope it ships after the 21st so that I can demand some compensation.
[Nexus 6  General] J.Guido85:
Ordered on November 5th [MENTION=425767]130[/MENTION]pm Est, 32GB Cloud White.

Nothing yet
[Nexus 6  General] NexUsandThem:
That's crazy. Meanwhile in the actual launch country its a frenzy. My wife (German) just cam back from Germany last week. Damn. I would have sent her on a mission if I could fast forward a week. Congratulations. Enjoy.
[Nexus 6  General] hockeyman12c:
Same here. Nothing pending on my Credit Card. Not even being subtracted from my available balance any more.

At least I have GTA V and Surge coming tomorrow :good:
[Nexus 6  General] digitaloutsider:
Count another one!
[Nexus 6  General] raider5oh:
Flight aware shows the shipment arriving at 10:12pm CST at the Memphis hub . Going on past time frames from another order that shipped through Moto could be here by Thursday if nothing delays it.
[Nexus 6  General] srb034:
Yessss

Mine is on the UPS truck as we speak scheduled for delivery today. Placed order on 10/29 at 12:15:31 CST among the first in the world :) Woot Woot :)
[Nexus 6  General] rozyman17:
Ordered 11/5 at 1:53 EST

32 Midnight Blue

3-5 business day shipping

I have heard nothing
[Nexus 6  General] acheney1990:
I got mine! Ordered 10/29...next day shipping. 32...white. Will post some pics ASAP and answer questions if anyone likes.
[Nexus 6  General] nutmonkey:
At least someone who ordered a White w/ next day got theirs, glad to hear google isn't screwing every person w/ overnight.... just every other person i guess
[Nexus 6  General] CursiveQ:
just spoke with GPS chat about it. this guy is basically telling me "i don't know"

REP: According to our inventory, there are time where devices will ship out sooner than the expected date. Because this happens randomly, we won't be able to comment or identify which devices/package will leave the warehouse before the expect date. Once the device ships out, you'll receive an email to confirm it's shipment along with a tracking number.

me: So you're saying that you guys ship out the orders randomly? not in the order that they were placed?

REP: To my knowledge, that's what it seems like. At this time, we don't have control over our inventory and shipment. What we'd recommend is follow the ship by date that was sent to you during your purchase.

he just keeps explaining that i shouldn't be worried because its not past the estimated ship date yet.

me: What i don't understand is why others who have the same estimates who have ordered AFTER me have already gotten their orders shipped

do you understand that?

say you walk into a restaurant and order fries, the guy tells you it may take 5-10 minutes. then another person comes into the restaurant after you and orders fries and is also told it may take 5-10 minutes. then the other guy's order of fries comes out first, and he's out the door eating fries while you're still waiting.

would you be concerned?
[Nexus 6  General] Parvinder25:
This is crazy seriously. Google knows best ways how to frustrate and annoy their users and to top it, they have an excellent bench of reps who are fking clueless and read the same old script.

It is fine that you are shipping late but at least give some news on the order. Why would you charge for overnight and give no clue as to what is happening to the order. Others are already getting their devices. Really annoying.
[Nexus 6  General] GCahill:
So who do we contact to give feedback on this absymal launch experience? I mean, other than coming here or other forums to complain. And not CS at Google, they obviously won't make a difference.
[Nexus 6  General] tunx:
Nov 5, 2014 12:50:41 PM CST - 32GB White - no shipping info !
[Nexus 6  General] banduril:
There is no way to submit feedback other than raising hell on social media or terminating your order.

I suppose you could send a Google Wallet request funds to Larry.Page@google.com for a shipping refund.
[Nexus 6  General] Joshnor713:
It looks like Google is trying to drive people away from ordering devices from Google Play. They can't be that dumb, it's Google!
[Nexus 6  General] GCahill:
Can't even get a refund on my shipping. Awesome. The rep was asking me about my bank and if I spoke to them. I had to re-explain why I even contacted Google in the first place. Same response though, not shipping to the 21st.
[Nexus 6  General] gtdriver0036:
For anyone that is interested.

If your FedEx tracking info shows an "in transit" time of 10:32 HKT it looks like the flight the phone caught is FDX5982 and your phone is en route to Memphis, TN where it should arrive at around 9PM CST. If it catches a connecting flight from there you may actually receive your phone tomorrow. Otherwise be prepared to get it Thursday.

At the moment your phone is cruising comfortably in the belly of a Boeing 777-200 flying at a ground speed of 746mph and an altitude of 33,000 feet. It's presently midway between Japan and Hawaii.
[Nexus 6  General] cornelious2:
Top speed of a 777 is 590mph lol
[Nexus 6  General] ssgtob1:
777 Airspeed max is 590, groundspeed is different than airspeed
[Nexus 6  General] TOCS88:
Sounds like a good plan to me. Have you never ordered a Nexus phone? With my 4 and 5 I chose cheapest method and got my phone as soon as anyone else. #ProTip
[Nexus 6  General] DrexelDragon:
Anyone from GP got a shipping email in the past couple of hours? This is such garbage man.
[Nexus 6  General] raider5oh:
yeah thats what im getting on flight aware. The last shipment of Nexus 6s didnt leave the hub till 8 hours after arrive to head to destination cities. so im thinking thursday.
[Nexus 6  General] cornelious2:
True, but that would have to be one hell of a tailwind to get it going that fast esp since Cruise speed is slower.

And now back to your regularly scheduled rant about google shipping at random.
[Nexus 6  General] GCahill:
I still use a Galaxy Nexus..so yeah, I'm new to the Play Store sticking things in my orifices experience.
[Nexus 6  General] ssgtob1:
There was someone a few pages back
[Nexus 6  General] lethalboy:
Was considering a iPhone 6 Plus.. but decided for the Nexus 6. Preordered and it says estimated 11/21 Let's see what happens
[Nexus 6  General] 2015Ducatimulti:
Yeah I ordered from MOTO website and says delivery 11/19, I hope that`s true, but I won`t hold my breath:D
[Nexus 6  General] forsaken82:
your lucky mine is dec 2nd from moto. thats for a 32gb, im hoping to get a 64 from the play store this week though and cancel the moto order
[Nexus 6  General] coach26:
Did it just recently change, or is that what it has always said?
[Nexus 6  General] cky2000:
Just got to order a Nexus 6 (32GB, Midnight Blue) (Order date: Nov 10, 2014 7:35:07 AM PST) from the Play Store (Leaves warehouse on

11/26/14). I was using wolfx Chrome extension (polling the play store). I know it was luck but I just installed the ext. about 4 hours before.
[Nexus 6  General] Cheater912:
Guy at the T-Mobile store looked it up. Says they're getting it in on the 12th. People around my area don't seem crazy about electronics, so I'm hoping I can just walk in and grab one.

If I get it and it doesn't work on Sprint, I'll sell it to a member as long as they pay for shipping.
[Nexus 6  General] giper54:
I just got a Moto x 2014 and it is shipping from China
[Nexus 6  General] rubi76:
I will, I just saw it.

I went to check the status of my Nexus 6 order and I saw another pending charge for the Nexus 5... which obviously shipped months ago...
[Nexus 6  General] dadsterflip:
Yea I just called one store.. Still showing coming soon but he knows about it. Can't go in and buy one with out any type of service lol.. Even at retail.
[Nexus 6  General] elementaldragon:
They're going to show Temporarily Out of Stock because even on Cruzerlite's website they're available for pre-order. Although.... now i'm kinda considering cancelling my pre-order from Cruzerlite, and just ordering mine on Amazon. Same $9.90 price, but also Prime eligible.
[Nexus 6  General] giper54:
Just sharing that Moto is now shipping from China instead of Texas with the Lenovo buy out
[Nexus 6  General] Pilz:
Trash that's what I might do, I have 2 Spigen ones coming already but more cases = better
[Nexus 6  General] Cheater912:
The employee over here told me I can buy it without service.
[Nexus 6  General] dadsterflip:
Hmmmm I might call around... See what's up
[Nexus 6  General] Cheater912:
He might just have no idea. I hope that's not the case lol
[Nexus 6  General] dadsterflip:
He seems knowledgeable about it.
[Nexus 6  General] Joshnor713:
It's all up in the air. I'm convinced that it just depends who you deal with, which is unfortunate. I can just imagine me standing for hours Wed. morning, and then they refusing to sell me one. You'll probably see a news headline over me making a scene after that :P
[Nexus 6  General] Cheater912:
I mean, the guy I was talking to. He seemed knowledgeable, but after reading this thread idk. People are really dumb.
[Nexus 6  General] dadsterflip:
Yea... One model but so many if or this or that. Just going to wait when tmobile releases it and someone makes a post that it works which it should but bleh.... Will see I guess.
[Nexus 6  General] Andromjb:
Go outside.
[Nexus 6  General] ssgtob1:
NVM.....Wrong
[Nexus 6  General] GCahill:
We'll get our phones after every retailer is able to offer them. We're almost there already. Best Buy has it on their site now, soon enough they will have it in store.
[Nexus 6  General] Allthingsdigital:
64 GB Cloud White or bust....

My objective was to get the 64 GB Cloud White version or none at all. I couldn't get it from Google Play but was able to order it from Motorola. Obviously, at that time i couldn't have predicted the way the launch would go from either GPS or Moto. Overall, I was happy that i got an order in for the version i wanted and did not settle on what was available. 11/6 1:39 p.m. EST order confirmed by Moto with estimated delivery 11/19.

Now, the question is, what's more important. Getting it first, or getting the one i would be happiest with. To me it is the latter even if it means waiting a little longer. I suppose Moto want expecting such high interest in the white version, based on other Nexus launches.

Of course I'm temporarily disappointed that Moto can't provide a real order status, and if it does show up tomorrow it will be a miracle and I'll be overjoyed. But for all obvious reasons I'm expecting the worst. Plus, what the heck can i do about it anyway?
[Nexus 6  General] DrexelDragon:
If that was the case, people who ordered after me wouldn't be getting their phones today, which is already the case. I'm pissed.
[Nexus 6  General] TOCS88:
A+ for the analogy. However, if I was the rep that had to deal with people like you all day.....well I don't know what I would do. Go take a walk around the block. :)
[Nexus 6  General] Joshnor713:
Thanks so much for this info!! Mine's been saying 10:32 HKT for a while now and I'm dying with no update. Thanks!!
[Nexus 6  General] SimonTuffGuy:
No shipment notification here yet - 11/5 @ 1:14 EST on 64GB MB with Overnight shipping.

Not a terrible thing... The Spigen cases I ordered today showed up and it gives me a day or two for the nano SIM cutter I Prime'd to show up too. Although I'm still hopeful that the N6 will show tomorrow.
[Nexus 6  General] CursiveQ:
haha, i wasn't particularly rude or anything. i just want to understand how it can happen. where are my damn fries?!
[Nexus 6  General] gtdriver0036:
just checked the winds aloft charts. It probably can't keep that speed up but it looks like it's getting around 60kts tailwind so assuming an indicated air speed around 560 which is 30kts under max it's a reasonable groundspeed. considering the 7 day avg duration for the flight is WAY below the filed time maybe FedEx likes flyin em fast.
[Nexus 6  General] ChaosCarrot:
Mine hasn't shipped yet and I paid for overnight, but honestly this whole launch is pretty funny and entertaining. Maybe its just me, but once my phone arrives I'll miss the anticipation and this whole situation a bit. I'll especially feel that way if I can get the 18.99 refunded at least partially.
[Nexus 6  General] GCahill:
I meant you and I specifically as well as everyone else still in limbo. It's too late for us, those who paid less get more first. Can't even get a refund according to Google as there is no proof anyone got their phones from Google.
[Nexus 6  General] DrexelDragon:
Oh you can be darn sure I'll get a refund on the shipping. That's one thing I'm good at lol
[Nexus 6  General] gtalum:
I am absolutely certain that when we complain we will at lest get a $10 Play Store credit to make up the difference in shipping cost.
[Nexus 6  General] TOCS88:
Maybe they could offer you a free soda.

My experience with the Google Play store is the reason I jumped through all the hoops to get the N6 from them.

A - I was one of the first with the Nexus 4. I was too dumb to figure out how to setup the APN settings. I chatted with them and was over night shipped a new phone for troubleshooting for free. (return shipped first phone again for free)

B - I pulled apart my brothers Nexus 4 and couldn't get the ambient light sensor to work. I chatted with google and they walked me through all the troubleshooting steps. During the chat I got it to work. The rep gave me $10 play credit for fixing it myself.

C - I was one of the first to get a Nexus 5. About a month ago I got a big scratch on the screen. (Never used a case or screen protector) I contacted google and asked what it would cost to get fixed. They over night shipped me a new N5 for free.

Conclusion: Buying from Google Play is the best decision you could make. They will take care of you.
[Nexus 6  General] rdcamero:
If google handled the iphone launch you would have people lined up to get the iPhone 7 while others were still waiting for their iPhone 6 preorder to arrive :D
[Nexus 6  General] GCahill:
They already gave me one the first time I contacted them on 11/6. Hopefully they give me it again but I dont know. No faith in Google's customer service anymore.
[Nexus 6  General] gtalum:
If the ship date goes beyond 11/21, I'll be demanding much more.
[Nexus 6  General] 10pmStalker:
Nope, I tried it. She didnt give me ****. Was trying hard too.
[Nexus 6  General] gtalum:
Then you're not very good at it. ;)
[Nexus 6  General] Andromjb:
I couldn't agree more. Not that I am laughing over people who are upset... but these guys going so far as to tracking multiple flights, flight speeds and landing times just has me cracking up like nothing before.

I mean good grief, it's a phone. I can't imagine what these guys do when buying Christmas presents in a month. :laugh:

I have all my cases and tempered glass protectors shipping out tonight to get to me Thursday. Got to love that Amazon Prime! I don't expect my phone until the 2nd. If I get it sooner great, if it's late it's late and I don't even have a phone right now cause I sold mine...

Motorola has never failed me before, it's why I ordered specifically from them only.
[Nexus 6  General] win465:
GPS rep chat

GPS Employee	12:41 PM

I understand your concern.

I am happy to look at your order.

I see your order has been processed and we are waiting for UPS to pick the package up from us.

As soon as UPS has your package and updates the shipping information you will receive that confirmation email with the tracking number.
[Nexus 6  General] gtdriver0036:
you can follow the flight in real time at this link: Flight Aware - FedEx Flight - FDX5982
[Nexus 6  General] 10pmStalker:
trying again, we will see if it was just that hard ass agent.
[Nexus 6  General] GCahill:
Yeah, mine hasn't changed since the first time I contacted them after I placed the inital order. Always tell me it's leaving on the 21st. Was told by one rep it could ship sooner but he only sees it leaving on the 21st. Grats to you though
[Nexus 6  General] acheney1990:
Opening it.
[Nexus 6  General] daddioj:
I think people are really starting to lose there minds lol
[Nexus 6  General] mk92595:
Almost 4pm and still no UPS
[Nexus 6  General] InGeNeTiCs:
Hate you so much.
[Nexus 6  General] TOCS88:
So they already gave you $10 for no reason and now you will demand more? They said it would ship by the 21st. Is my calendar broken or is it already beyond that?
[Nexus 6  General] 10pmStalker:
ahh the butter knife to open it. Interesting
[Nexus 6  General] win465:
Bam just got $10 Google play store credit

Google rep said - I know this in no way makes up for the shipping, but I am going to give you $10 in Play Credit as my way of saying thank you for your patience and for being such a great customer.
[Nexus 6  General] gtalum:
Escalate up the chain until you get what you want. If your request is reasonable (and I believe that asking for $10 Play credit to cover the difference in shipping costs is extremely reasonable) someone will have the power to give you what you want to make you go away.
[Nexus 6  General] clubtech:
Well, the iPhone 6 was a shi* show indeed but nothing like this. When people complained to apple about orders being dropped and cancelled by mistake on launch day they got a free gift from Apple in the likes of Apple TV, beats or various items from the store worth about $100.. Not some $18 refund. That's exactly how you treat your customers who are buying at a premium. Remember - the N6 is not a budget price device.

Google just doesn't seem to learn retail year over year.

There is absolutely no excuse for people who ordered on 11/5 to get a tracking number before people who ordered on 10/29 and it doesn't matter how they try to spin it. The same goes to Motorola orders. You ordered first from the source - you get it first from the source. This is being marketed as a google device not a motorola device. I opened a case with them asking for some compensation. The rep agreed with me it is totally not OK and will forward to a supervisor. Not giving it a lot of hope but we'll see what comes out of it.
[Nexus 6  General] GCahill:
Dude, people that paid for ground shipping are getting theirs already. People that ordered on 11/5 with standard shipping will get it before or on same day as those who ordered 10/29 with overnight. I don't care about $10 Google Play credit. I never even asked for it in the first place but I do want a refund on my shipping. If you can't see how that's unfair...
[Nexus 6  General] Parvinder25:
Lucky you. We ordered the same day, same shipping method. same color. just mine is 64. still no info here.
[Nexus 6  General] drpancake:
Grats!

Whoa wtf is that apple logo doing there! :p
[Nexus 6  General] gtalum:
We paid for expedited shipping and then our items are shipping after others who didn't pay to expedite. Demanding the difference in shipping costs isn't unreasonable.
[Nexus 6  General] Andromjb:
Ya, this flight tracking is on another level. :laugh:
[Nexus 6  General] thrillerbee:
What is in the jar?
[Nexus 6  General] :
Some of us Sprint users are getting tracking numbers. Myself included.
[Nexus 6  General] DrexelDragon:
Seriously? Google is reaching new lows.. They better ship out tonight..
[Nexus 6  General] mk92595:
ITS HERE!
[Nexus 6  General] Donjuanal:
Mines stuck in PA. Dont think its reaching me until Thursday :/
[Nexus 6  General] godsafk:
Not going to lie, pretty damn jealous of you guys getting your phones today. At least somebody is able to enjoy their $700 investment!

Welp I guess I'll just keep loading bowls until I see my tracking number. This might take a while. :angel:
[Nexus 6  General] charesa39:
Just checking in. Pending charge dropped from my CC today. Nothing showing on my CC at all. Google Wallet still shows as "Pending." Ordered 64GB Blue on 11/05 with 1-Day shipping. Still waiting... I'm fine with getting it when I get it, but I will still probably request a $10 Play credit as the difference between overnight and standard shipping, seeing as I will probably be getting it the same time as standard shippers, therefore, negating the whole point of overnight shipping.
[Nexus 6  General] :
Screen shot:
[Nexus 6  General] godsafk:
Wow, Sprint doesn't play around! It's obvious Google wanted people to buy the Nexus 6 through the carriers, it seems those of us who ordered directly from the GPS are being punished for not bowing down to our carrier overlords.
[Nexus 6  General] Mauijpm:
Has anyone received an answer like this from GPS today and their phone has been shipped: It is in a SENT status, which means the shipper is working on a tracking number. You will get an email when they have it ready.
[Nexus 6  General] win465:
I really don't see any reason for them not to ship out the 1 day shipment orders tonight. They shipped out most of the 3-5 and 2 day shipping people so that leave the 1 day people to be shipped out.

The fastest and most efficient way for them to do this is in the attachment :p
[Nexus 6  General] DrexelDragon:
These reps are just blowing smoke. None know anything more or less than another. Means nothing. At all.
[Nexus 6  General] 10pmStalker:
haha still nothing, escalated it and everything. They probably getting too many from the forum trying the same thing.
[Nexus 6  General] win465:
Lol my person gave it to me fairly quickly
[Nexus 6  General] arcanexvi:
No but I had a conversation with them today (for what it's worth) and they told me my 32GB White (Ordered 11/5 10:30AM with overnight shipping) was not part of the initial allotment and that they're waiting for the next batch to get mine out. No ETA. I know that they state 11/21 which is all fine and dandy but they should ship them in order that they were placed in. There are people stating that they purchased 32GB White units after me that have theirs in hand today. I don't mind waiting til 11/21 to see it go out but seeing the people that ordered after me with ground/2day shipping getting them first is frustrating.
[Nexus 6  General] win465:
Oh no i wonder if they ran out of blue 32gb
[Nexus 6  General] A-Gon:
Have one of my N6's. Came yesterday. 2 more to go.
[Nexus 6  General] electroncarl:
What kind of ____ is it that they have stock to ship out the 2-3 orders, but have to put the 1 day orders on hold?

LOL, good job, Google! I had a rep tell me a similar thing when I called them earlier today. Something about stock not being available when I ordered, but people after me may have had stock when they ordered... I am so confused.
