Non pre-order 16 gig Nexus ship dates? - Nexus 7 General

I ordered one on Monday after I unexpectedly sold my Touchpad. The Site said 1 to 2 weeks back ordered which I was fine with. The next day it changed to 3 to 5 or 2 to 4, I can't remember. Now it says coming soon with a notification sign up thing. I couldn't find any info on this because every news item is about the pre orders and Google isn't getting back to me. Anyone have an idea of when the next batch of 16s will ship?

A long time. The 16GB version has sold out practically everywhere worldwide so don't expect it to be soon. There is a very high demand for this tablet. I would say around 2-5 weeks you would have to wait for the device.

I ordered mine on the July 17th at a Staples store. It as in my hands by the July 20th.

I got mine the other day because I pre-ordered. Pretty much every (if not every) distributor is sold out now. The demand for the 16 gig model is HUGE. Google just van keep up.

I ordered mine through Walmart (online) on July 18, with promised delivery on July 25.

I called Google about this and they said it might come within the 3-4 weeks range because I was on the border of the pre-orders. Or he said it might come this weekend which it didn't. I ended up ordering from Macmall it said 2-3 days shipping. But it hasn't shipped yet so hopefully tomorrow it ships or I have a problem. I ordered from mac mall early Saturday morning.

I actually found and bought my 16g today at a staples store. Of course it was almost an hour away from home. But that was the closest stock I could find. Might want to try them.

What wave is your Nexus 7? (If you pre-ordered)

I just pre-ordered my Nexus 7 today from gamestop for 249.99. Im in Wave 2, for those of you who also pre ordered what wave are you. Also if you pre-ordered from gamestop as I did the confirmed release date is August 7th
How do we tell?
Ordered mine on the 28th so should be the first wave.
Second the above, how can we tell?
Also does anyone know what countries and also what retailers are "releasing in waves"? I really hope PC World (UK) release them all at once because I ordered rather late.

well I went to the store to pre-order it. it should be on the receipt
Don't understand why people are pretty ordering anywhere else but play store.
You will get it first
I pre-ordered at my local Gamestop on 07/03/12 and my receipt does not say any date or info as to what wave my order is in.

Yeah I pre-ordered it pretty early (6/29) from GS too and my receipt says nothing about the wave I'm in
I don't buy the whole 'wave' thing for my gamestop. I live in a town of hicks and i'm pretty sure I'm one of about five people who pre ordered. They gave me the August arrival date though, which would suck major ass.

I did order from the Google PLay store, and it ended up being around $280 for the 16GB. I cancelled it and ordered it from J&R and am getting it for $234 shipped on top of a 5% Discover Card cashback, which will make it $222.30.
So will I get my Nexus7 a few days late? Maybe. But I got a 16GB one for $222.30.
Guy at Gamestop told me 7/31 or a few days before 7/31, but I'm not really sure they know the real date. All speculation I believe.
Without an official date from Google themselves, take what the gamestop reps tell you with a grain of salt. They don't know any more than anyone else.

And Google phone rep told me if you pre ordered before July 1st on the play store you are in the first wave and the second wave was August 7th. It's kinda funny they're like with a week to week and a half from shipping them and they still can't put a date on it rofl.
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T
I'm pretty sure the wave isn't by store it's the wave of release from the manufacturer.
Anyone who pre-ordered from the play store is in the "first wave" if you are ordering from a retailer you are in the "second wave"
I was told from Google rep they're preparing them in waves. Once that's done they're going to ship them all at once.

Gamestop Nexus 7 confirmed in stock

Just confirmed with a personal friend of mine that is a manager of a gamestop. They currently have their stock of Nexus 7s in stock and ready to be sold but are waiting on Asus to give a street date for them. :good:
Already confirmed and there is a topic for this.
Good luck with that. Asus and Google won't want to upset those that ordered at the announcement online, when they could have walked to the end of the road and picked one up instore quicker.
Expect store units to be delayed until after the initial shipments of online ordered have been dispatched to prevent a PR nightmare.

Well just called to confirm my preorder at gamestop. They asked when I preordered and since I was the first one to preorder they said mine is available for pickup tomorrow. Apparently not all of the preorders will be filled tomorrow and it depends on where in line you are. There has been many many cases of devices being available earlier at a local store than people received them direct from the manufacturer. This looks to be the same :highfive:

I pre-ordered on June 26th (thru the Play Store) just after the Nexus 7 was announced at Google I/O. It grieves me to know that I would have been better off waiting two days and ordered thru GameStop after it was announced that they would be selling the Nexus 7 Tablet, because waiting two more days to place the order would have gotten the tablet in my hands faster. (This is going to make for some really bad PR for Google...)
Edit: Had the wrong date of July 4th... (wrote from memory and remember a big event on July 4 - LHC announcement of finding the Higgs partical... Somehow crossed that with the Google I/O event the previous week)

NOBODY is getting it until google and asus announce the official date.. unless you went to Google I/O... they cant and will not give it up before its official.. maybe that is a big hint that tomorrow might be the day, who knows. all i know is that even if it is tomorrow, my local gamestop hasnt recieved their shipment yet, so i wont even recieve mine unless it comes tonight (IF it comes out tomorrow)
So half the GameStops are saying come and pick up and half are saying we were told we have to hold them so I guess you just have to be lucky

Hello All,
I can also confirm I have my tablet from game stop!!!
Called me earlier, had in store waiting for me.
I'm in Somerville NJ
Checked my messages at home and got a call from gamestop that my nexus 7 is ready for pick up. Headed there now to pick it up!!!
Man these stores are going to get into serious trouble for selling these, and now that they are actually being sold at retail, we still arent getting any word from google about our play store pre-orders, more and more people are getting them at their local retail stores now and no other info what so ever, really a shame as I sold my other tablet early because I expected to get this based on what they had said about availability and you would figure that pre-orders from their site would be showing up on people's doorsteps now if others are actually buying them from places like Gamestop. Of course Gamestop isnt supposed to be selling these, so thats probably why, you are lucky you got it because you werent supposed to

Just bought mine from GameStop. I didn't pre-order.
The only devices they had there were the ones that had gotten pre-ordered, and the guy working there was the only one to pre-order it. So he sold me his reserved one. Said he would wait a little longer and take his girlfriend out to dinner or something.
Made my week.
Reserved it yesterday. Turns out I don't get it for another week or so since they don't have any except for pre orders (and I was the only one).

I won't list the city because we don't have a lot of Gamestops in the state and I don't want ours getting in trouble, but got the text around 9:20AM and a phone call at 10:30 (while on the phone with one store rep who said they couldn't sell it...) saying it was ready for pick up. Went and got it, was told they got an email this morning to "sell them if you got them"...and we were "supposed" to be the August 7th wave...but still got it today...and the price rang up as $99,999.00 originally, took a LOT of finaggling on the clerk's part to get the price down to the $249.99...then the poor kid gave me CASH BACK (the ENTIRE nexus7 was paid for by the trade in of a butt load of "older" games and an ipad 1st gen 16gb, which the nexus was replacing) for my store credit, and I did the math, they didn't pull my extra 20% that they were supposed to...bonus of $20 for me today!
Samclub is selling them also. I'm in line buying it right now.

Seen the "Gamestop ok to release Nexus 7" article this morning. I called mine and they said since I pre-ordered on the last day I would get it tomorrow or Monday. Then my wife got a text saying I could go pick it up today. Don't know who to believe, the manager or the text!
I just talked to a Gamestop rep in Slidell La. Gamestop stores in Covington, picyune and Mandeville are in stock. No stores on the south shore have them yet but she did say they're expecting their shipment later. I guess around 3 pm.

I wanted to make a thread where people (primarily second and third wave pre-orders) can post when their Nexus 7 was shipped to their Gamestop for pickup.
I ordered mine July 20th & have yet to hear from them about the status.

I preordered mine on July 15 and was told that I was on the third wave but actually on the second wave and got mine on the 25th and have not put it down since lol. I would recommend calling them and seeing where yours is.

Ordered mine on the 15th, still have't heard anything.
I called them today and they said they probably won't be getting them till October (in store).
I don't know about preorders but I'd rather not deal with that crap. There are plenty of other places to buy it from and probably get it sooner.

Not when all you have is Gamestop credit
I think I ordered mine on the 14th, but I know I'm in the second wave of preorders. I called on Saturday and the guy I spoke with said they'd be in later this week. Then I called again yesterday and whoever answered didn't want to give a date, just saying that they'd be in whenever everybody else started getting another shipment. Hope the first guy is right, but the second guy knew specifically of the screen separation issue, so he was probably more knowledgeable.
The only reason I'm holding out is because I'm using some store credit from my old iPod touch. I had actually bought one from Staples, but returned it at the end of the 14 day window after it developed the screen separation problem (along the bottom, oddly enough). Otherwise, I would have just sold the GameStop one on eBay if they were still worth $300+ on there once it came in. I took the first guy at his word in making that decision, so here's hoping I'm not without one for too long.
got my second one
I didn't preorder one and got it the 2nd day it came out at GameStop(last one in area). It had a screen seperation issue and they ordered me a new one that came in a week later. The new one is great and I got another $10 from Google wallet.
Preordered mine on that 17th of July and have been calling every week to find out any information. I was told that I was going to get it by August 7th when I preordered, but was just trying to have some hope that I'd be getting it sooner. If it wasn't for the fact that I got it for free by getting rid of my wife's old iPhone 4 I would've bought it from somewhere else a long time ago.
Same here, preordered on the 17th, was told it would come in late last week. Called Monday and was told August 7 instead. I could have gotten one at Macmall B&M downtown but since I had tradein at Gamestop I gotta wait.
I ordered mine on July 14th and received a call on July 24th to pick up which I believe is the second wave. So far, no problems on my tablet.
Got mine from GameStop. I Preordered then it took about 10 ten to get to the store. The way the store rep explained it to me was the store won't keep it in stock in store. You go in and preorder it and they will order it and it will come in one of their weekly shipments.

That's what they told me right before I got mine from Staples (I've returned it since then), which was on the 17th. That was right when Google was overwhelmed by demand for the 16 GB version; my guess is some higher-up put a really conservative estimate in the system to keep people's expectations low.
I'm hoping it comes this weekend, because it's the sales tax holiday in NC from Friday to Sunday and tablets qualify. If not, I might still go in and try to pay for it over the weekend, even if it's not in yet.
ordered mine on the 15th, it came in on the 25th. he said it was his second wave of shipments.
BIG update for me:
Ordered the 20th from Gamestop. Got off the phone today with them, gave them my info, and it is in transit scheduled for early next week

Same story for me with the South Blvd. and Woodlawn location in Charlotte, NC (ordered 7/14). The guy on the phone told me an email went out this morning saying a big shipment is on its way. Didn't say who all was on that email, but it sounded like a lot of people are getting theirs next week.
I saw a guy from Chicago over in the main thread saying he ordered his on the 22nd and got it today. Sounds like there's no real consistency with who gets theirs when, but it looks like the wait is almost over. :fingers-crossed:
Preordered July 19... Haven't heard anything quite yet. Hell the csr didn't even have an estimated date other than eventually. But I preorder enough through one particular store to know that store's employees aren't completely incompetent.
On edit: stopped in on a hunch and it turns out that mine came in this morning. Woot!
|-|-|
Mine is in!!!!!!!! Going now to get it.
Pre ordered mine on the 7th. My receipt originally said Second Wave 8/7. On the 13th I got a call from the GS Guy saying my Nexus 7 was ready for pickup. Seemed like I was the only one in my city to get one, or one of few. There were no advertisements in the store.
I feel like I'm the only one waiting anymore. I called today to ask and they said they should be getting a big shipment in tomorrow and hopefully mine will be on it. I just hope if I have any issues with mine it won't be this big of a hassle to get a replacement.

(Q) Delivery date

As we get nearer to the launch date I thought we could all share with each other our delivery dates for the pre-orders of the Z1 or estimated ones, along with where you ordered it from.
I'll start, delivery date is week commencing 16th September - Ordered from Carphone Warehouse.

I'm from Australia, I ordered one from the Sony Australia website (they were the only mob taking pre orders and most of the overseas re seller prices were significantly more expensive), currently the website says ships in October, but there's no specific dates and I've heard incoming phones tend to go to re sellers for distribution before they go to people who ordered online...

Snap, I did an early upgrade and pre-ordered the Z1, selling the HTC One.
CPW Pre-Order
It looks like I wont be getting my Z1 on the 16th
I have just checked the warehouse stock in my local store for the Z1 and there is none in, normally with pre-orders we get stock in the warehouse first and those are for the pre-orders....my order is still open, which means awaiting stock.
Now with the weekend now here the earliest we will get a delivery will be Monday, so I'd imagine Tuesday/Wednesday will be the delivery date, I just hope we get them in soon.
Bought a purple one straight from Sony Norway this time around.
Expected 26-27th.
Also bought the dock, which got the same expected date.
So fingers crossed that I don't have to charge the "crude" way :fingers-crossed:

I think it will be next week as any pre order has to be delivered from then... Its just because I did an upgrade that they had to legally say this... Whichever way, I made great fuss and told them to push me in front pre order queue!
Thats a whole lot better than waiting for a month (I waited 4 to 6 weeks for the Lumia 920 which was a drag).
Limited options in the US and couldn't wait after the announcement so got it on ebay here. Says it will ship the 20th, overnight expedited. Hoping the 21st or the 22nd.
