Wow,
I can't believe how slow USPS & Canada Post has become.
Every purchase I have been making, either through the marketplace here, ebay or even Amazon, the wait times have significantly increased.
The last item I ordered were NFC tags from Seattle, they took 2 and half weeks. (It's a 14 hour drive from here)
I am still waiting nearly three weeks for a car dock purchased on ebay, still hasn't arrived.
I got a CD I purchased from UK Amazon yesterday, I ordered it two days AFTER I ordered the car dock. This CD came from England!!!!
Get your dam act together USPS/Canada Post.
Crymeny!!!!!
Sorry all, had to vent.
Heeter
And I thought royal mail was bad

Daily Steals has Nook Color for $134.99 + $4.99 shipping. I have not purchased
from them but the cheapest I have seen for the Nook Color.
You beat me to it!
I had posted this a little bit ago in the "members found deals" of the market place.
I've ordered from dailysteals before with no issues!!
The link is http://www.dailysteals.com/?utm_sou...1_Tuesday_5_Deals_10_17_2011&utm_medium=email
I thought i was going to break the news... maybe next time.
Yep, the time to sell my NC was 2 months ago
Beat me too. Got my 3rd from them 2 weeks ago for $149! Took my son to B and N to get a gel case.. still $250. Amazing. She did hint that there would be a price change in a few weeks.
This nook color offer says "90 day warranty". The one I ordered 2 weeks ago from steals said "1 year warranty". Why the change or just a misprint?
B and N brought down the refurb ones on EBay to 149$ free shipping...
Daily steals says:
What You Get:
Barnes & Noble NOOK Color
Factory Refurbished
1 Year Warranty
Ridiculously good deal. Almost as good as the BlackBerry Playbook I got for $100 last week lol.
For that price, I'm tempted to get a second nook.

Playbook? Where from?
Stay away from DailySteals!!!
I ordered a NC on Sept 30.
Oct 6 showed a UPS tracking number.
No updates since then.
Last communication (after several e-mails) I had was on Sunday Oct 16 that they were "looking into it".
Nada since then. They don't answer their phones. E-mails get an auto response claiming they will respond within 1-2 business days, then nothing. Absolutely the WORST customer "service" I have ever encountered!
i bought one from them a week ago for 167 crap...
Yeah, dailysteals shipping is ridiculously slow, took like 2.5 weeks to receive mine. And you can't cancel it once it ships.
Not exactly a daily steals fanboy, but I bought my NC from them. It took a couple of weeks to get it...but no drama. Rooted it with CM7 and 15 minutes later...good to go. Had to alter the build.prop for Netflix. Everything good so far.
Sent from my Nexus S using xda premium
They *finally* admitted that mine was "lost in transit" and will refund my money.
I got my wife and I's last night. I have her running CM7 off of microSD card, and I installed to internal memory. Everything went smoothly and the performance of both is great. Both overclocked to 1.2 Ghz.
Got in on the deal, received mine last evening... haven't had time to hack it properly yet, but guess what's going to happen when I get home tonight?
And yes, they took 8 days to ship, and it was another 4 or so in transit.
DailySteals is a bloody nightmare. Took forever to ship, and then to the wrong
address (not even the right state).
They do not answer their emails unless you start a paypal claim which I have, since
it has been over 2 weeks, and there is no chance I will ever receive it.
After all the hassle with Daily Steals (they actually *did* process the refund), I finally got around to ordering one for $139 with free shipping from buy.com. Ordered yesterday; UPS tracking shows delivery tomorrow.
Buy.com has them for $139 and free shipping

Soon to be former HTC Flyer owner here. I just ordered my 16GB Nexus 7 today. I had just paid $200 for my Flyer in February, and to be honest it was a great tablet hardware wise but ruined by lackluster support by HTC. It hit EOL status way too soon, and got cut off from support at honeycomb. I spent the last month debating whether or not to keep it or cut my losses and get a Nexus 7 and Finally Monday I decided I'm not happy with the Flyer, it didn't live up to my expectations, so on Ebay it went. Haven't sold it yet, but decided to go ahead and charge the Nexus 7 before they sell out again.
Very excited and looking forward to receiving it! BTW how long does it take for google to process and ship the order?
i ordered my nexus late afternoon on monday, and it is suppose to arrive tomorrow according to the trackingt number from UPS. So i am gonna guess 3-4 days.

2 day shipping means that the actual shipping takes 2 days - they can still take a long time to process it.

Seriously??????????
How on earth has Google lied about 2 day shipping?
I assume that you have ordered online before and are aware that means delivery is 2 days from when it is shipped and not 2 days from when you click the order button...
If you have never ordered anything online before then please excuse my sarcasm....

?? There is a difference between when you Order it and when they ship it. When they ship it, it is 2 day business delivery. It may however take more than 2 days before the ship the unit from your order.
I think they did great. When I ordered it July 19th, the order page said ETA 3-4 WEEKS.... They shipped it 6 days later, and it arrived within 2 business days of the shipping date.
The only people who seem to have had issues with shipping had...
o Problems with Customs, not much Google can do about that
o Shipping issues with UPS, again, it is out of their hands once they hand it off.
From what I've seen, Google has refunded shipping costs when this happened which is just about all they can do.
They are not "lieing" .... and are not lying either.
Woa....
Sorry didn't mean to get everyone riled up. Just don't quite understand what 2 day shipping means from Google. I've been ordering stuff online for over 10 years. Just sayin 2 day shipping from say newegg would mean ordering yesterday would get me my stuff by Friday.
But from what I've seen it sounds like the 2 day shipping is actually 3 to 5 days so no that doesn't make much sense.
Sounds like they just aren't providing all the details like processing time etc. Sorry I just hate waiting on shipping! I have planned on buying it from a store until I read about the warranty.
Sent from my De-Sensed HTC Vivid using Tapatalk 2
that's because they ship same day. 2day shipping only applies to the time it spends in transit by a carrier. Processing and handling time is a different story. if you order say, a custom computer from dell, you can get 3-5 days shipping but it takes them a week to build it. so the system will arrive to its destination a week + 3-5 days.
tldr: shipping time =/= ETA. Handling & processing is not calculated in shipping time.
EDIT: you also have to consider the terms and conditions of the shipping service. most of them are business days only and some are based purely on time spent in transit regardless of it being a business day or not.

When it's here I won't care. Sorry didn't want to start off my first official post with the community on a bad note. Trust me I know Google is a Web product company not a physical product company so things might take longer and shipping is going to cost more than say amazon who ships out millions of products every day. And the petition for the. $14 shipping charge is just lunacy! I went through the play store because the warranty service is better and you get a $25 Google play credit. I'm sure the wait and the shipping charges will be worth it over buying it directly from a retailer.
Google is my favorite company, and this will be my 4th android device, love the os. Sorry again if I offended

My Nexus shipped and yes its really 2 day shipping. They shipped it early this morning I imagine I'll have it come Monday. Looking forward to it, my flyer is all packed up for when someone finally decides to buy it so I'm missing having a tablet atm.

With the flyer was it not getting updates that you weren't happy about, or problems that didn't get fixed before end of life, or just general performance? Was your flyer rooted?
I'm just curious, I haven't had one yet and wont buy one that old but would love to get a nice sense 4 quad core tablet from HTC to go along with my nexus 7
You will LOVE the Nexus 7 I'm sure. It's an amazing device.
Ordered mine on Monday morning. Two day shipping. I'm getting it today. Just checked tracking info and its out for delivery. So pretty quick. I'm happy with the process.

I was using a Galaxy Tab 10.1 before I ordered the Nexus 7. I like the 7 inch size better. Gave the 10.1 to my wife she's using that now instead of her laptop.

Yeah lack of support. I wanted a nice tablet and didn't want to pay a mint. I was actually looking at a Anol novo 7 Chinese tablet with ics on it but I found this flyer refurbished for 200 and figured with Htc I'd get better support. Unfortunately the updated to honeycomb which made it a bit laggy, and web browsing sucked on it. Even Google hates honeycomb as you can't get chrome for it. It's like an ics beta, and in may htc decided all their tablets would stay on honeycomb. Hardware and build quality wise it was awesome but I was mulling over the nexus ever since I got it. We got a good ics rom in the works, borrowing drivers from the one v and desire HD but it has ways to go and overall I finally decided not happy with the flyer, and I really want a nexus, so I went with my heart!
And the 2 day shipping is no lie, getting it tommorrow! Very excited. Im loosing some features like mhl: never used it, rear camera: pretty useless just a toy on a tablet and the flyers camera was pretty grainy anyway, sd slot in which I found just didn't need one. I eventually put one in but only for cwm purposes, selling it with the flyer as a deal sweetner. And vibrate too, but I eventually turned it off on the flyer as it just wasn't needed, it just drained the battery more. So that stuff the nexus is missing is not important to me
And who wouldn't want a chance to play with jelly bean now instead of hoping your phone might get it after key lime pie comes out? Very excited!

Hello everyone,
So I have accidentally spent too much time drooling and reading reviews to pull the trigger to order. But I've decided I need one, and need it immediately (lol, as I'm sure all of you understand).
Question: What's the quickest way to get one? Has anyone ordered super recently and received an immediate shipping/arrival ETA? Or would it be best to go to the store and nab one?
Thanks for your assistance in getting one of these sexy beasts in my paws with a quickness! :highfive:
Try to preorder and get one day service to see if that way you can get it tomorrow or weds
Or just wait until Friday
I ordered the white one last Friday and will receive mine Tuesday with one day air shipping. I'm calling t-mobile today to get credited for my shipping since most people got next day air free. It's best you order a white one if you want it quick Also my first pre-order which was on the first morning of pre-orders was cancelled due to a banking error but the rep promised me I would still get my device early. k.
I pre ordered on 9/30. My shipping label was just created on 10/11/14 and still seems to be sitting in a T-Mobile warehouse someplace because it has yet to be picked up by UPS. This is the first time I've pre ordered a phone from T-Mobile and it will be the last. I always show up at a T-Mobile store on launch day and walk out with a phone by 9:30 AM. As a T-Mobile customer for over 10 years you would think my shipping would be upgraded to 1 day air like a lot of others have. But according to my still up shipped tracking label, it's going UPS Ground.
Rather messed up that T-Mobile wouldn''t honor a first come, first served model. I could in all likely hood pre-order right now and have a device delivered before someone who ordered the day it started.
Same boat as you. Estimated delivery date is Friday.

Did you get tracking yet? I ordered white one Friday as well and they told me it would come in Monday if I did overnight. However, today they said it still hasn't been shipped yet and are not sure when it will now. Shipping was obviously refunded.

There was a loose ear piece grill on mine and Tmo had to order me a new black one today. They charged my card for a new phone with EIP just like the first one and they are shipping it to me overnight for Wed delivery. It's technically a new purchase and the 1st one will be a return.

I pre ordered mine and had it two days later. So I'd say having pre ordered but they will be showing up in stores and with that sweet $200 dollar rebate deal going on it maybe better to get one at bestbuy.

How they get it free? how much was one day air? Cause I preordered mine in stores on 10/10 and come to think about it they never ask what shipping rate I wanted... like when I ask questions about the phone like a week earlier over the phone but anyways if I can get back the shipping that be cool.. but I think they just gave me the standard shipping $6.99... but if I could gotten free shipping...

I live in Las Vegas so you can pretty much find a T-Mobile store within 10 minutes of wherever you're at in the city.
I just called my 15 nearest stores asking if they had any in stock, all immediately answered no. One of them actually told me they had some literally 5 minutes before I called and that they were already gone. Almost a week after release, what is this Apple?! Haha, I definitely thought I'd just able to go into my nearest T-Mobile and pick one up. On the other hand good for Samsung, seems like it really is selling.
Anyone else having issues finding one in stock? Or rather was anyone actually able to get one in store?
I'm having that problem here in Napa, CA.
I called my 5 nearest stores with no availability, they did say maybe today. But I haven't had time to call and check.
I'm also shock that they are not carrying a bunch of these.
I think hands down its the best Smart phone released this yr.
I think Samsung finally put together all the goodies to make this phone awesome.
I mean the Note 3 is nice, but this is that much better IMO

That's what I attempted to do first, however it shows that it's backordered when you go to checkout.
I actually found one awesome helpful employee who said he will call me whenever they get more in and hold one for me, but I'm going out of town tomorrow night so hopefully it's before then!
same thing here in houston tx. i called every store and it was sold out everywhere, but one employee told me i could order at the store and that overnight shipping is free, so thats what i did hopefully it is there tomorrow....
Phone shipped!
Phone is shipping from KY, and it should be here on the 24th! very excited! My case already came with a screen protector so I'll already have this bad boy protected.
I called around Chicago and 5 stores had none in stock. This was on Saturday, the day after release. I decided to try the suburbs with no luck. The last store I called had a few left so I rushed over there.
i got mine on launch day, in Huntsville AL, 3 hours after the store opened, and they had already sold out on the first shipment. Fortunately I got there minutes after a new shipment came in and got to get the first one out of that one.

Worst launch ever IMO!! First place had none in stock on the 17th, launch day! Second place had about six and had sold out by the time I got there. Third had some but had to wait quite some time before my turn at the counter! Most tempered glass protectors don't fit properly and quite a few bumper cases are not ready for shipping! Mine supposedly is but I haven't received it yet. It was due at the latest estimate today, 8:00p.m. It's not that time yet, but I've never know UPS to deliver that late.

If you ordered a tempered glass protector, chances are it will not fit! Only Spigen and Tech Armor brands got any positive feedback so far. The curved glass is the main culprit although some others even got the spacing of earpiece grill, camera and home button cutouts totally wrong!

Yeah one of the stores I talked to said they only get 2-3 per shipment, and only of one color. For example they got 3 black ones today and said they'd probably just got 3 white ones tomorrow.
