Walmart in Stock-but not carrying it?

As i am looking online for a 16 gb n7, i found a walmart that is says in stock online. The interesting part is that when i called the store, they said that they are not carrying that product. Should i still try to go pick it up or not. I am really confused right now.

forget Wal-mart. Staples has them, Radio Shack has them and the Google Store has them now as well.

you should give them the item number, most csr's have no clue

Agreed, buy it anywhere else but wal-mart....plz

My local staples didn't have any but the Walmart right next door had 3 16gb in the cage.
Forgot to mention that it was today that I got one.

You have to educate the CSR's of new items at Walmart. They told me today that they don't have nor do they plan on carrying it. Then they opened the stock cabinet and I pointed at it. They didn't have a display up.

I got mine last night at Walmart and there is one box only in the cage so I went to grab it right away and go home happy.

I just saw 6 nexus 7's at the Walmart near Portland, Oregon. They had zero on display but they were sitting in a glass case near other tablets.

i got mine yesterday from WM.

I just bought mine from Walmart, they had 5 more boxes in Noblesville Indiana. I tryed buying them from staples but they ran out, and GameStop for some reason won't sell me theirs, said it was for preorder only. I'm really happy with mine right now, no flaws that I can tell.

staples, gamestop, office depot, but only wallmart, looks like i will just get from the play store.

I just got mine from walmart. I would rather not pay the shipping if I didn't have to, and no other stores had them in stock I called every brick and mortar within 50 miles. Birmingham, Alabama by the way.

Funny thing about Wal-Mart, they will take back anything, no questions asked, within a year.
Funny story about the funny thing above, Okla. State Univ. recruited a bunch of European women to play on their women's soccer team a few years ago. They all went to Wal-Mart and bought everything that they needed to furnish an entire apartment. When the season and semester was over, the returned everything down to the last spatula, for cash, and flew home.
I hate Wal-Mart with a white-hot passion, but when you need something at 3am, being able to go buy it at the near by Super Center is... grudgingly... pretty cool.

Wal-Mart is about the easiest place ever to return stuff. I wouldn't hesitate at all to buying one from there.

I don't mind Walmart either. Best return policy on the planet. Ghetto as **** though.

Perfect Nexus 7 Finally!!!!
I just bought mine from walmart When I went in they didn't have any out for sale but the website said they had them in stock so I asked the sales guy and he said they had them in the back. After buying one from google play and having severe light bleed it was nice to finally see what a perfect nexus 7 looks like. It looks great no light bleed, no dead pixels, no bad wifi and touch is responsive and colors don't look washed out, feels solid. I also got their 2 year protection for $20.00 it covers anything. So anyone with doubts about walmart might wanna give them a try.

I agree, no questions ever asked and no hassle returns make Walmart a no brainer.

NEEDED: Intel courtesy of someone who works for Wal-Mart.
The inventory information on the Wal-Mart.com that is accessible to the public runs two weeks behind. If you check today for Wal-Mart No.550756186 (the 16gb Nexus 7) it gives you store inventory as of 7/15/2012 (two weeks ago). Searching it for the dozen stores in/near 74105 (Tulsa, OK) shows that all 12 normally carry it, but are out of stock as of 7/15/2012. Well, no****, Sherlock. No Wal-Mart in America had any on 7/15, so this really just tells me that the stores should have it or get some soon. Based on reports in this thread that people are finding them in stock at their local Wal-Mart stores, I went to one here and called five others. None reported having any, but I'm not sure that they made much of an effort to search.
Surely someone who actually worked for Wal-Mart could access inventory info that's much closer to real time (like 24hrs or less). It sure would be nice if someone would tell us what to expect and which Wal-Mart's should have them.
For me, the cost of shipping is typically about the same as sales tax ($16 on the $200 model; $20 on the $250). All things considered, I'd prefer to buy from a local Wal-Mart, have the benefit of no questions asked one year returns and be able to buy a $20 covers nearly everything two year extended warranty. For me, this is preferable to $25 in Google Play credit.
Someone here woks for Wal-Mart, probably. C'mon, help a brother out.

Checked Walmart.com yesterday and found a few Walmart in Omaha, NE that had some. I promptly went and picked one up because everywhere else is out of stock.

I just ordered mine on the Walmart.com site and it was ready within a few hours. When I went in to pick it up, they said they still had about 12 more in the back. So it seems there may be some truth behind the Walmart Availability. Although, it wasn't displayed in the electronics department yet. Good Luck!

[Official] Play Store orders & shipping thread!

Updated Dec 6 1:30AM EST
Below is specific only to the orders from the first day the Nexus 4 was live.
Limbo 1 order fulfillment: ~99%
Limbo 2 order fulfillment: ~99%
Limbo 3 order fulfillment: ~91% (the majority of orders fall into this category)
"fulfillment" = shipped
Above is my educated guess on the status of the shipments that have been going out. I'm constantly tracking this and several other sources for continuing information.
Current status of orders and shipments:
Points below are confirmed:
First major batch shipped Nov 19 (upgraded to Next Day Air).
All orders that took place on the 13th that were back-ordered will be upgraded to Next Day Air for free.
Play Store Customer Service do not have any relevant information about your order. Calling them is nothing short of a complete waste of time.
Orders have not been shipped on a first-come first-serve basis. There is no pattern to the shipments, it is seemingly random. We have indisputable evidence of this.
Addendum to above: It is believed that we are finally going in order. Some of the later orders were shipped first due to an incomplete manifest.
Many people have noticed the last updated date on the Play orders page has changed. No one is certain yet what this might mean.
Points below are likely:
Logistics have been outsourced to UPS.
Order mechanics "slid" during the initial rush of the first few minutes of the product going live. This caused several issues (including an incomplete manifest sent to UPS).
Status of your order (limbos):
1) Order placed. No e-mail of any kind (including order confirmation) received.
2) Order placed. Order confirmation received. No other e-mail of any kind received.
3) Order placed. Order confirmation received. Back-order e-mail received.

Tentative US order time: 09:00AM PST
Changed "confirmed" to "tentative". 09:00AM PST is most likely, but you should be watching out regardless.
These are some of my favorite threads here! We all heard that the Nexus 4 is now official but I'd wager that a lot of us are waiting for preorders to open up on the Play Store.
Post the usual "I ordered!" "It shipped!" etc. here! I, personally, cannot wait for this guy. Just sold my S3 for it.
I did call Google to ask if they were going to open pre-orders for the device. Doesn't look like it this time around, but I was told that you will be able to purchase on November 13th and that stock would start shipping "either on the 13th or the 17th," whatever that means.
Current information (as of Nov 12):
No one knows what time the purchase will go live.
Best guesses are sometime in the morning of the 13th (office hours), or at 00:00 PST. I'm personally leaning toward the former. (NEW: see below)
There will be no pre-order on the Play Store.
Check here for specific country availability.
Check here for more information on shipping and handling for your country.
A Virtual Credit Card (VCC) cannot be used with your purchase in the device store. Also, at this time, the country of your credit card must match the the country to which you're shipping.
Taxable charges, if any, depend on what state you're ordering from.
We do not know what shipping options will be available. Right now, only 2-day shipping is confirmed. We are hopeful for an overnight option at launch.
News added Nov 10:
Android Police got a little clarification from Google-- the rep said pretty much exactly what we've been assuming for the past couple of weeks. They also agree with me that the button will be more likely to go live in the morning sometime, rather than at midnight. See source here: http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/1...-shipments-start-november-13th-no-pre-orders/
News added Nov 13:
A German Google employee has revealed that the Nexus 4 should be selling at "around breakfast time" in Germany. He also mentioned that would be about 8-9AM. This would lead us to believe that the order form will go live at 0:00PST as originally anticipated. Germany is 9 hours ahead of Pacific Standard Time-- aka, 2AM Central, 3AM EST.[/url]

im guessing on nov 13th but they really didnt say.

From the Play Store:
Coming soon!
Available for purchase on Tuesday, Nov. 13th

Sure. But the Play Store says you can purchase it on the 13th.

I would imagine that means a direct purchase. It doesnt mention when pre-orders will start. I for one will definitely be pre-ordering (if possible) this phone. Just hope I can get around £160 for my HTC Desire HD with lots of cases and accessories included

I'll most definitely be getting one of these. The price is good, it looks good, and I really dig the wireless charging. I've many times where I'd just put my phone on my desk, forgot to connect the charger, and fall asleep just to wake up with a (mostly) depleted battery. Finally a worthy replacement for my ageing Nexus one.

It's not too big of a concern. The wireless charging is a more of a luxury than anything. The most important thing is the option is available; the aftermarket solutions either adds thickness or look just plain ugly.

XOSkins shipping time?

Hello, can anyone on here who has purchases xoskins in the past tell me how long it took to receive your product? I ordered 3 (N7, GNEX, and GSII) on 10-27-12, and they show "delivered" on the xoskins web site 10-29-12. Using the tracking number they gave me on the USPS site, It shows shipping info received on 10-29-12, and that is it. Do they always take this long? I emailed them about it, and have yet to hear a response.

It takes a bit of time. I forget how long however. But when it reads delivered, it doesn't mean delivered to you per se. As you found out that meant it finally got to the post office for shipment and was scanned on 10/29. Free shipping is anywhere from 2-5 business days. I do see they mention EST so they may have been hit with Superstorm Sandy. So bear with them a bit and shoot them a second email.
I can't say more than I am more than happy with them. They sent me a replacement screen protector and spray bottle for my N7 pretty much without question. And for FREE. Good company to deal with IMO.

I ordered with them, based on how i have never heard a bad thing about them. I just wasnt sure if it was them not actually getting it to the PO, or if the PO got it and lost it somewhere.

I got an email back from them today. Seems USPS dropped the ball. They are shipping me out a new package, today. I am glad their support is as awesome as I have heard XD.
Beats the **** out of Zagg's I had an invisible shield arrive damaged. It was a manufacturing error, which happens no big deal. But I contacted them about it. It took 6 days to get a response, and when they did respond they told me I damaged it and was trying to "Get something for nothing." took a month before they finally replaced it. And that was when I vowed to never buy their products again.

Lets Talk orders delayed and cases not till Mid May...

I just galled in to get an update on my order status as it is no longer able to be checked via the lets talk website. I was going to find out when it would arrive and then see if I could get a phone locally and cancel my pre-order. The recording when you call says there are now further delays with the 32gb and 64gb developer editions, didn't say anything about carrier specific models and I didn't get through to anyone.
The message also said the double dip free cases are on backorder until mid may as well so you will not have something to protect your phone for the first few weeks if you get one from them.
Just a heads up.

lol we're bouncing back and forth thru threads to see the best Right Now price in a walkin/walkout scenario

It was the 199.99 for me with upgrade and was 699 without.
I had them open a black and a silver so I could hold the real phones next to each other and see which I liked more. Not sure why I feel this way but, the black just looks too much like other phones on the market so I wanted to go with the Silver.

Almond variant global waiting room

Just thought I'd create a thread for those of us that ordered the Almond color. Ordered mine the day it dropped on the site and it appears it'll ship around the 24th. I really thought this one was worth waiting for. You guys who ordered it like I did please chime in here.

I received it last Sunday. It looks class. Gonna rock a clear case with it which is arriving today.

Yes, I did. Will be here next Wednesday.

I'll add that I am anxious to get my grubby paws on it. All these years have been black phones starting with the OG Droid A855. But the A855 had gold accents that made it look elegant. I got used to the old 24k theme on it and have themed my phone with FFCC66 ever since. When the HTC One M8 came out, I went for the gold one, but soon after Motorola came out with the Nexus 6 and I had to have some Motorola again.
I first started a trade-in with my 6T then found out that the Almond was a limited edition. So I figured the next day I would change it from a voucher to a cash back trade in. Talking to CS was a chore for me, the girl clearly did not really understand a word I was saying, she only knew how to catch on to like one word and then quote from her script. The script was the part of the FAQ that said they don't change the trade ins from voucher to cash back. I went on to tell them to just cancel the trade in and save them some money. She just kept saying Yes, yes, yes. Arg! Asking for someone else with better linguistic skills, I was told there are no others. Hehe.

And I guess this thread is pointless clutter since there's already a waiting room thread made weeks ago...... But that's how xda is no one uses the threads already created so we just end up with clutter... Just because it's a different color doesn't mean it needs it's own thread.... There's already a waiting room....

Hmm, I just did a search for the waiting room thread, can't find it anywhere in my searches. Since the Almond was not released at the same time and is a limited edition, I think a separate thread is well warranted. So I suppose the only thing that could be clutter is someone who is not waiting for this color of phone.
But what do I know? I've only been around these sites for 10+ years.

While I am sympathetic to OP in lieu of some fast growth they should have thought more about the reps talking to the world and having some good English knowledge. Thanks for sharing your smartphone walk here. In my case I started with the LG G3 (BLACK), went to Note 5 (black), S8 (black), note 8b(black), so (blue for 30 days then sold it). Op5t (black), op6 (black then red), 6t (mirror black), stint with a Mi8 (blue sold after 2 months - wanted to try Xiaomi), gotbq P2XL (black)b my current 2 dailys are P2XL AND OP6T. Looking forward to a limited edition 7 Pro myself ??

I'm going to have mine Monday according to the tracking info I have now. I will post some pics as soon as I have it up and running the way I want. Or sooner, lol.
Suffer me this. My smartphone 'walk' actually started with the Motorola A4500, code named Napoleon, also known as the Q9n. It was a Windows Mobile 6.1 phone that we had to hack to unlock the GPS chip for third party apps. It was probably this first phone to really run google maps on Verizon. It was never released, maybe about 200 or so were 'leaked' out to the public. It was cool because it said "Engineering Release Only" on one side and "Not for the Public" on the other.
My Android walk was the A855, then the Galaxy Nexus, toyed with the Motorola razrM just because I got one that the bootloader could be unlocked on, then the HTC One M8 because it could be unlocked as well and the Gnex was getting old. Samsung doesn't make phones to last IMHO. Then Motorola with the Nexus 6. Motorola makes phones. I didn't see anything with what I wanted in a phone that would outdo the Nexus 6 until the Oneplus 6T, four years later. And here I am now. The 6T has been a finicky beast when it comes to flashing ROM's and such. For me, especially restoring Nandroids. So when I got soft bricked recently, I saw the 7 Pro and then in Almond and figured, I'll get that one, rock it, root it, rom it, and then just enjoy it for a few years. Screw all the updates. I learned on the A855 that although being able to run the latest on it is not always the greatest as the hardware was pretty much designed for the software available at the time. It might go one or two steps, but then your performance is going to fall off. That's why my Nexus lasted four years. It's still on Lolipop 5.1.1 and running well as it is again my daily driver while I wait to get this one.

Well, its here. I'm on my nexus 6 right now so I hope I can figure out how to post the one picture. The almond back is sort of pearlish and I really like the gold outer band. I've got it charged and now to go full speed ahead, damn the torpedoes and unlock the bootloader etc.
