CONFIRMED: I'm traveling in San Francisco. Called the 2 Staples here, said they had a few 32GB Nexus 7 instock but are not allowed to release till October 29th. They start with Serial numbers C90. Will be $249.
Can't wait to get one!
EDIT: Mod please delete. Was trying to post a response in already existing thread, but created a new post! Sorry!
If anyone has an extra Nexus 4 they might've ordered, I would like to buy it off you if possible. I live in Downtown Toronto.
I would like to buy either the 8GB or the 16GB version. PM me if you'd like to strike a deal.
Thanks fellow xda members
Please make a thread in the Marketplace section. Thread closed.
Not sure if anyone else has seen this yet, but daily steals currently has the Nexus 4 16 gb in stock for 499.99 with free shipping for those of you who want a nexus 4 but have not been able to get one from play store yet! It comes out to around 100$~ extra if you buy it now as compared to the one from the play store, but hey, if you're in a rush to get it, it's here in stock! Also, this is cheaper than if you went into a T-Mobile store and bought one, because you get to save money on taxes. Enjoy!

A person in the market thread posted his order and it showed he ordered 7 on the 13th he claims that they were for presents but who knows. Anyway after all the high priced ebay items i was hoping there would be a limit and google came through. It seems if you ordered 2 the first round you couldnt order the same variant 8 or 16 from the same account. So a single account could technically order 4 phones. Another article stated that those who ordered more than 2 would only be shipped 2. Has this happened to anyone? Did you really need more than 2? I for one hope a lot over ebayers got their plans foiled with this one.
Too little too late.
If they could get enough stock in the play store none of these greedy sellers would be able to mark up prices so much.

Use the main shipping thread found here, or use one of the existing backorder or country-specific threads.
Thanks for your cooperation.

We know that other retailers will be carrying the Nexus 5 sooner or later.
For those of us with memebership in the primeverse or for those that prefer to save on shipping & save *ahem* file our own taxes, avoid the google play limbo experience and/or use our chase amazon visa's, I present to you the Nexus 5 Amazon thread.
Let's keep on the lookout for nexus 5 developments relating to amazon and post any information here!
I've heard rumors that amazon will be stocking somewhere between 3-7 days.
However, the rep that I spoke to didn't appear to have any information about upcoming nexus 5 availability.
Here's my chat with the rep:
http://goo.gl/DMza0n
I also believe the stock alerts in this thread -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2503657 added amazon to it's monitor list.
i have prime but still paid for expedited shipping and tax from the play store. i dont mind paying more to receive it earlier than to wait.
Pearl sure was useless. You should have told her a joke. Maybe ask her out on a date or something. Better luck next time bro.
I would have waited to purchase it from Amazon, however, I'll still get dinged with sales tax and only save $10 on shipping.
So, I'll just say the $10 was used for help out with the "instant gratification."
I put myself down for a 32GB black that ships in 2-3 weeks, if Amazon gets it before then I will cancel and order from Amazon.
If amazon sells the nexus 5 everything will be perfect

will the nexus 5 work on wind or mobilicity?
1700/2100 frequency?

It looks like the alert in that thread isn't set up yet. i followed the comments in the reddit topic about using page monitor. hopefully that works. Did we want to set up a hangouts or something? not sure of the best way.
Please Amazon, please please please sell the international version D821. PLEASE!
Sure we can definitely start a hangout if we have enough people/interest.
I think quite a few people just bit the bullet and bought the nexus 5 on google play.
When do you guys expect the N5 on Amazon?
I didn't follow the N4 when it came out. What do you think are we looking at days or weeks?

AFAIK, the N4 was not sold by Amazon. The only Google devices they sold were the Chromecast and the Nexus 7 (2013), which were both sold at the same price as the Play store and listed on Amazon on release day.
If I don't get my damn shipping notice by Tuesday like I should I will hope that Amazon has it by then and order it overnight shipping and cancel/resell the playstore order, smh

Best Buy has an insane markup — hopefully Amazon doesn't follow suit.

I have a feeling that the $800 markup is a Sprint thing to "encourage" people to buy it on contract.
I hope they will sell the Unlocked version at the same price as the Play Store since they didn't put a markup on the Nexus 7, Chromecast, or Chromebooks.

I really hope so. Come to think of it, has Amazon ever officially sold an unlocked Nexus phone? I know they didn't sell the Nexus 4, I'm pretty sure they didn't sell the Galaxy Nexus, and I'm vaguely remembering them not carrying the Nexus S or Nexus One.

This will be their first time officially selling a Nexus phone I believe.
HOWEVER! What has me some what worried is that the pre-order page for Amazon UK's Nexus 5 is extremely overpriced. I really hope it's just a placeholder and they'll fix it when they get it in stock. http://www.amazon.co.uk/LG-Nexus-5-...E&s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1383328580&sr=1-3 I would prefer using Amazon to get the phone since I have gift cards.

With BB selling the N5 for $800 and Amazon UK selling it for 520 GBP (~845 USD), I think it's unlikely Amazon US will sell it at the Play Store prices.
one of the posts on that reddit says they plan on pricing it like google. hopefully thats true.
