Anyone having issues finding the HD7? (London)

Anyone having issues finding an HD7? I went downtown today (maybe a bit late on the shipment i guess) and they were all sold out.
I asked the guy to check the other stores and nothing came up.
He said the next shipment should come in on thursday, so heads up to anyone.

Could you not order online direct from o2?

Agree, ordered mine online and it arrived the next day. No hassle at all!

Same with me, called the local store on launch day and they didn't have it, ordered online and it arrived the next.

Picked mine up at my local o2 store where they had a few in stock. I don't believe many people have actually noticed the price o2 have these on pay-as-you-go. Either that or they're just not bothered about WP7!
Fantastic device btw, although I did get mine exchanged the next day as the volume up button wouldn't "click" as much as the volume down would.

Try O2 in Angel, that's where I got mine on launch day. I'm not suprised they are in short supply, I turned up at 11:30am on launch day and there was already someone waiting for them to finish logging the delivery into the system

On launch day I visited two O2 stores, one on Oxford Street. They had none on display, none in stock and no POS shouting about them. I crossed the road to the Orange store at 7pm and even at that time they had promo people outside the store encouraging demo's of the Mozart. Inside they had at least 3 demo units, a demo guy and a security guard.
I also called O2 that day and they said the HD7 was not available on PAYG until the next day.
It was clear to me who is putting effort into the WP launch. It's a shame that O2 have exclusivity, because in the end I ordered the HD7 on the O2 website on PAYG on launch day.
I cannot stand O2, but that's the way it works when you value the phone more than the annoyances of the distributor. At least I'm not in any kind of contract with them.

I went to pick mine up yesterday, expecting them to have none. I had been in the day before and asked if they were going to set-up a display (Like the have for the iPhone 4) so I could test out the handset and OS. They assured me it would be up on the Saturday. I thanked them, went on my way...anyway, I went in yesterday (Sunday) and there still was no phones on display, but there was at least some WP7 posters now....I was chatting to a new guy there and he said they simply didn't seem to care about it, because they're so focused on iPhone 4 contracts and the money it brings them.......
As the post above said, O2 don't give a damn. They still have the IP4 marketshare from the 3G/3GS exclusivity deal and that is all they seem to focus on. Orange on the other hand, although having the iP4 now don't have the fortune of that headstart so they seem to make an effort with other handsets.
Had Orange of sold the Omnia 7 on PAYG, I'd of brought that. But as the HD7 is such good value, I went down that route. Within 2 minutes of having it, I was unlocked and chucked in another SIM

I went to 2 O2 stores on the release day, none had a clue when they were getting them in. I ended up ordering the phone off the O2 website and got it next day.

I thought about going to buy one in the O2 store in Westfield, but had a contact in O2 who said that the website was being updated at 07:30 on Thursday morning, so I ordered online before I went to work.
I've not been into Westfield since, so couldn't say if they even had any -- think I walked past last Tuesday, and there was no sign. Got sort of chased out as I attempted to find out if the display HD2 would fit in my jeans pocket.

just got mine tonight on Oxford street.
So giddy

I posted earlier that they had them in O2 Angel and that they had point of sales plastered all over their windows. Suprised no one has tried there rather than whining about O2 not having it in thier local stores. If people still have problems, when posting state which stores are empty.

Buying the Note !

So i went to the high street to get the note today but it was sold out -_-
I was wondering if anyone bought it from amazon.co.uk? I am really sceptical about buying it online because of all the screen issues as i dont have the time to ship it off for replacements.
Should i wait for restock ? or just go with amazon and cross my fingers that it wont have any screen issues ?

i also have same question

I just walked into my local phones4u. They had plenty in stock. I had no joy with any of the main operators stores, O2, Vodafone or orange. Had to sign up for my first 18 month contract, no go on a 12.
Not tried yet, but been reading the new firmware sorts some screen issues.

I am visiting London and bought it at the Samsung/Bose store on Tottenham. It was £599 but I do get a VAT refund. After watching me play on it, my friend bought one as well.

nowhere near london :-(
I guess ill buy it from amazon and see how it goes!

I bought one from amazon a few days ago and I had no problem. I did one day shipping and the phone itself has no issues.

I also bought from Amazon, ordered on the 20th, received on the 23rd, no issues.
Came in German, with instructions on how to switch it to English. Rooted, updated to KK7, works fine.

Got a defective unit, cancel other preorder?

I was able to pick up a N7 at my local Office Depot yesterday, but it's suffering from the screen separation issue/LCD flicker as mentioned many times around here. I would take it back for an exchange but they won't be getting more for awhile. I also have an order with J&R (which won't be coming until late August probably), but I'm wondering whether I should cancel that one considering I have one now but it's defective... Thanks for any advice.

That's your choice to make If you think the second one is going to be defective, don't get it then?

Official GameStop Thread

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.
Cheers,
Charlie

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.

Ordered from GameStop on July 15th and last time I called they said late September. I have in the mean time picked one up from Staples. Going to sell the one from GameStop to a buddy.

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.

Buying an N6 from AT&T Corporate store. Shippment times, is this true?

So my AT&T store got their N6's in-stock but as everyone knows they were recalled. They have no ETA on when they will have more in-stock BUT told me they can still order one for me threw something called the fulfillment center? They said it would take 3~5 days for it to ship.
Is this true?
If they can have them shipped in 3 to 5 days, why do they have no ETA on getting them? I'm reluctant to order one and then have the wait turn into weeks or even a couple months.
I'm almost thinking about getting an S5 tonight at Best Buy for the Black Friday $1.00 dollars deal. I REALLY want the N6 but my S3 is broken and I'm without a phone right now. It broke a just under two weeks before the N6 was due out so I didn't file a claim for insurance, just held out for the N6 and that damn recall crap happened.
I keep seeing people say they are just going to go get one from Best Buy but when I call any Best buy in my state they tell me they never got N6's and their system shows they never not N6's yet people keep saying here on XDA well I'm just going to go get one from BB etc.

First, the stores have been getting their replacement N6's for the past 2 days. Some stores got them in Tuesday, the ones near where I live got them Wed. Chances are high that, if your local stores don't have them already, they'll get them Friday.
As for "direct fulfillment" taking 3-5 days, it's kind of a random thing. I ordered one around noon on Tuesday with overnight delivery, and it showed up at my door Wed morning. (However, the AT&T website and the call centers all insisted it wouldn't ship until sometime in December.) I've read of some people taking a day or two before they ship out, and then another 2 days for actual delivery. It also depends on if AT&T has physical stock. (Also, if you order on black Friday, it's possible that no one will ship it until the following week - due to the holiday.)
If you want the nexus 6, I'd call your local corporate stores (more than one) Friday around 1pm to see if they got their daily shipment yet and if any nexus 6's came in.

Interesting that the AT&T store did not have any clue when they might receive a re-stock. I also checked another one that is in my local mall, I do not know if it's a corporate store but they said a few weeks.
I do know that no Best Buys in my state show any N6's have ever come in, one of the guys checked the computer for me.
I will go try the AT&T store tomorrow. I would rather SEE the phone I'm actually getting and not wait for it to just show up on my door step!
Thanks for the update. Side note this delay has allowed for my Digitronics TPU Gen 2 N6 case to be here when I do get my phone. Suppose to be delivered tomorrow!

N6 AT&T
No sign of the N6 in at&t stores or best buy in CA. I've checked every day this week. I will check again today.

I ordered mine before Thanksgiving from AT&T website and it arrived yesterday, haven't had any trouble with mine.

yeah I was able to pick up a Nexus 6 from ATT store yesterday here in Michigan, actually Angola, IN across board from me and I think My local ATT store has couple too and we are actually kind out away from any major city and they had them in stock and I was really surprise they did.

I should have updated the thread. I ended up finding one at one of the Corporate stores here in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
They got them in on Friday.

The At&t store here in Salem, Oregon has them, I just got mine today. The website wouldn't tell me a shipping date so I popped in on the off chance they had them in since the recall. The rep told me they just came in yesterday and were in the back still, then went and got me one. Seems they only have the midnight blue though.

UPDATE.

I finally found the phone after calling around to other at&t stores in nearby towns. Lesson learned; even though one employee from one store says noone has it, keep checking. They don't know and they dont care. They had three of them in stock and not a whole lot of accessories. As i was buying it, a lady asked me what phone it was and picked one up clueless. The employees barely know what they're selling if it's not a Samsung or iphone. The emoloyees had no idea they were the only stire with the phone in stock. So, the stores don't talk to one another and these were corporate stores, noy authorized retailers.
