Ordering at Amazon - Off-topic

Guys I just want to ask you if anyone of you have ordered at Amazon. I placed an order last week and was expected to receive it today but up the mailman came but my order wasn't there.
I have a tracking number but whenever I try to input it won't register and says I should wait a couple of days for it to register in their side.
Is it really this long when ordering through amazon? It's already 8 days and still no good on tracking it.

I've never had problems with Amazon. All of my packages come either on time or earlier than promised... Try contacting amazon and see what they say.

Exactly. Most things on Amazon these days are sold through 3rd party merchants and their delivery times are often slower than Amazons own. A lot can depend on whether an item is in stock or not too.
I use Amazon a lot so i paid for a Prime membership. Those items that fall under Prime delivery are usually received next day here. The only thing that pisses me off is having to pay so much for digital copies of books.

Staples!

I don't know why everyone is waiting for there 16gb n7. I got one last week at staples and another for my buddy this week. I still got my Google play credit and my free content and the free Google wallet money. Go to staples.

Yea, because Staples doesn't sell out. Never.
I got mine at staples in Nashville yesterday.

+1 for staples, got mine yesterday at one in Goleta, CA. They were out of the 16gb (which is fine because I wanted the 8 anyway), but it surprised me that they even had them at all when the best buy across the street from them was telling me it would be a few weeks before they got any in stock.

+1 Just checked for a 100 mi radias and found two locations selling the 8gb only.
If you are in San Antonio, head over to the RIM shoppes and in Austin at
1201 Barbara Jordan Blvd Suite 700
Austin TX 78723
100 mile check around my area=none. I got the last one on Friday
I don't think many people is waiting now .. but my local staples never stock up on crap besides office supplies

Staples last week- 16 gb. North Jersey. When it says not sold in this store on the internet, keep checking. That just means they are out of stock. It will change to In stock when they get a delivery.
On Thursday, I got my 16 GB from Staples about 30 miles away, it was the last one there. Definitely the only Nexus in my area too, Haha I had been searching and it finally crossed my mind to call there
Edit: should note that they did not have the 8 GB at my Staples. They were also kind enough to hold it for 3 hours until I got off from work despite it being their only one

I just got my 8gb from Staples today, I called four different locations by me and they were all sold out of the 16gb versions.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
Uh, the Staples down here in TX were all empty of 16s, and most didn't even carry 8s. The Walmarts are getting 16s in a lot of areas, though. They have tons up around Dallas (where I go to school), but are out around Austin (where I'm spending the summer). Another place to check (just don't buy them all before I get up there for mine!)

I agree, Staples all over are getting stock! If it says "Low Stock" online...hurry!
It depends on location... here in CT all staples sold out.
Maybe geeks are a lot in this area

I tried calling my local Staples earlier, they didn't answer...
In any case, I'll call them up tomorrow and see how their stock is. Hopefully they have the 16GB in stock.
Does anyone have any experience with RMA's and Staples?

Yep my first one had a dead pixel. You have 14 days to get a replacement and it's really easy. Walk in, have your tablet and receipt/order number and get a new one.

Staples had neither the 16 or 8 in stock. The sales person was kind enough to tell me some guy just bought the last dozen!!! to sell online for a profit....??!
No estimate for next shipment, nothing....seriously? Called CS, no help, they asked if the sales person suggested I preorder one...I wasn't informed of the option.
I'm sorry but you shouldn't rub stuff like that in someone's face. Yes the lucky customer is entitled to do as he pleases but I feel strongly a product like this should have purchase quantity limits.
I may stop shopping at staples unless I have to go there in a 911... I sold my gift card.
Better believe I'm going to Google I/O 2013. Hopefully freebies will still exist (I would NEVER re sell mine,let alone the day of like some people did)...I'd be crazy not go go with my student discount. Just a matter of luck getting tickets I guess!

[Q] Price matching

Hey guys, trying to get the new note, without a contract. Anyone know the lowest cash price? I managed to get my 2 for ~650 shortly after it came out.
Check craigslist, some people are selling them for 550 to 600.

That's great advice.
I got mine from Amazon for $724.99. It's a prime eligible item also. It should be arriving today. Woo hoo!!! It's not a great price reduction considering that that is what the AT&T store had them listed at. At least I didn't have to pay tax or shipping. But AT&T said they would only sell me one if I bought a Galaxy Gear also. Ridiculous

I bought mine from Amazon as well with no problems. 725USD
(And I had an E970 Optimus G as my previous phone. Are you me? )
I got best buy to match my local corporate stores price at 724.99 make sure to mention your buying it out full and they should match it. If your not wanting to wait for it to ship.

I went to an At&t store to preorder the phone, they "couldn't let me just buy the phone outright (even thought the website has the option to) I preordered my note 3 from on the next program (which is pretty much still a contract in my opinion). With next you can pay off the phone anytime, so as soon as I picked it up from the store I paid it off.
I paid $665 total and had paid the tax when I went into preorder $42.
So about $707 total, which is much better than paying $724 without tax included.

Did Samsung not make enough Gears?

I placed an order on 10-4 with T-Mobile.com and it's on backorder. I noticed that a lot of places are sold out. Did Samsung not make enough because of unknown demand?
Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk 4
Not sure if they made enough or not but there are some at various stores around where I live. Also T-mobile is supposedly backordered quite heavily due to the massive mistake they made in including the gear in their 30% off accessories coupon. Great promotion for the consumer but no one knows when all of those orders will be fulfilled.

Yup, they definitely didn't make enough.. I almost did not get my phone upon release cuz all the gear was gone. They said that they can't sell the phone without the gear?? But lucky enough they had one left, the one they were showing to all potential customers lol.

yeah still no gear here, major bummer wanted to see at least a demo unit
My Best Buy still has like 10-15 of them in stock in Various Colors. I got my manager to price match the T-Mobile price last week for 2 of them (one was for resale and one for me). I guess I got lucky on that. But they are to be found. Any if you want to play with one, any best buy with a Samsung store should have a live demo of a Gear there.
Here in Denver I had to drive all the way across town to get my jet black Gear. Most Best Buys are sold out.
I'm glad I purchased it. The features are awesome.

I just want to at least order already... Yesterday I was getting a message about my cart being empty and I called and the rep stated it was because it's not actually in the system. Well today I got an email from BB, asking for me to finish my order. Well now I get to the final page where I send in my info to the carrier. All I get now is the following message:
"We're sorry, there was a problem with your request. Please contact your carrier directly for assistance."
I then call Sprint, let them know exactly whats going on, and I'm going through BB because they have an exclusive on Amber Gold. They check my account for issues and say everything is good and there is no errors on there end. BB doesn't seem to know why and keeps sending me to Sprint.
I just want to get the thing in Amber Gold before April 10th.
My cart would clear out if I didn't checkout as a guest. As for the last screen I was getting an error about the order being complete but it was due to me typing in a piece of the account info wrong.

unfortunately, no. they treat it as a pre-order and don't handle pre-order over the phone, stores don't have it in there systems as an option, and yeah, stuck with this problem online. :///

I ordered a gold one from BB. Also had errors when logged into my account. Had to checkout as guest and it went through just fine. Did get order confirmation on the 25th but no shipping info or updates yet. Had a friend get his today already. That one was ordered directly from Sprint I just wanted the gold one. I hope it ships soon. Sprint usually will get them to me next day air or 2 day. BB will have to see.
