Please put "Factory Refurbished" on the title.
Anybody received theirs?
Here's my story:
Order placed 9/30.
Tracking number issued 10/6 (OK, fair enough; they claim within 6 business days). UPS shows "A UPS shipping label has been created . . . ". That means the shipper has done the UPS paperwork, but not yet actually shipped the item.
Today is 10/12, still shows the same. I chatted with support rep yesterday, she said she had no information and I should e-mail "[email protected]" so they could "check with the warehouse".
E-mail sent yesterday, received automated acknowledgement, but have heard NOTHING since then. When I call, I get an automated message that they will be closed on Thursday and Friday, and reopen on Monday.
Sooo, has anyone else ordered from them and actually received their Nook?
Yes. Got mine today. As did a friend who ordered the same deal.
For some reason, it shipped UPS to my town, then was handed over to the USPS for delivery. That's a new one on me.
I picked one up from Overstock. It looked brand new. No problems or dead pixels. This is the way to get a Nook Color. My only concern is if you have some issue you have to mail it in instead of just returning it to a local store.
I also ordered it Sept. 30th from dailysteals.
It arrived Oct. 12th.
Screen was perfect, everything worked as expected.
Apart from taking crazy long to ship, I'm happy so far.
Okay, it looks like they lost mine
I'll just have to wait until they reopen on Monday. At this point, though, they have to rank as one of the *worst* sites I have ever dealt with in terms of responsiveness (I know, I know; "you get what you paid for").

Yeah. Shipping is pretty horrendous. I'm STILL waiting as UPS sent it to USPS without scanning it, so it's a ghost in the system. It sat in a warehouse for around 3 days. Hope you guys are enjoying your devices. I'll probably have UPS pay for mine since they lost it. There goes my deal.

I ordered mine from this site on 9/30 (at about 10 minutes till midnight). Like others here, it seemingly took forever for them to hand the package off to UPS, who shipped it 99% of the way and then handed it off to the USPS for final delivery. Mail was unusually late today, it didn't come until around 5pm, but they did have my order. All told, it took 2 weeks from ordering to final delivery. Granted, the shipping was free, but it was the slowest shipping I have ever had the displeasure to use.

Anyone else in the same boat? Have you gotten the email from the escalation team yet? If so, how long did it take for them to contact you?
I am still waiting for the email the rep on the phone told me about last night. I explained that my speaker is too low compared to my GFs N7 and he mentioned a lot of people were complaining about this with the 16GB versions (go figure). He said that they'll ship me a new one and will send packaging labels to return this one. He said I should expect an email from Google some time this week and after that they'll send me the replacement with 1-day shipping. Is this accurate?
At least I can play around with the N7 for the time being. However, it's quite annoying knowing ill have to redo all my setup again. Só many apps, layout changes, settings changes, etc.
Oh well...
PS - Today at work I compared the screens between my 16GB and my coworkers 8GB and his was noticeably brighter when maxed out. Weird and sad that there is another thing I need to worry about now. I guess I expected these QC issues from Asus as an original Transformer owner.

Nice! Wish they would fulfill my order before sending you a second one though... no offense.
I don't really mind the wait for my replacement. I just want some confirmation that they'll indeed be doing it. Don't want to run out of my grace period without getting to test out the second unit.
I'm sure you'll be getting yours soon.
6pm tonight will be 48 hrs since I contacted them, I don't have high hopes of getting a proper 2nd email.
I called them on Tues about the lifted screen and I got an email from them earlier today about getting a replacement. It seems that I will have to order a new unit (my card will be AUTH but not charged) and then the replacement in. They need to get the device within 21 days so that my card doesn't get charged. I've already placed the order through a special URL and now just waiting to see when they will ship.

Oh, I completely understand. Mostly just poking fun anyway
I ordered early but changed it from 8 to 16gb on the 12th, so I have another week to go. They wouldnt honor my original order date despite giving them more money.
I'm too busy looking for a job anyway. Seems veterans aren't as quickly hired as I had previously thought.
I waited 48 still no reply. I tried to call they tel have to wait for escalation team.

I contacted them on Tuesday sadly only a few hours after getting my N7. My speaker is defective as well, and like you said when I brought it up they mentioned its been coming up lately. Same deal, told me they would ship out a new one for me within 24hrs however they didn't mention anything about 1 day shipping. That would be great.
Just under 24hrs later last night I received two emails back including the return shipping label info and another with a link to a custom play store checkout with my 16gb replacement. I put in my order via the link they gave me but I was greeted with an error on the next page, however I promptly received an email confirming my order so I guess it went through anyways.
All that's left now is waiting to see when it ships..
I hope it's soon.

I was wondering if my 16GB version suffered from low volume levels. I'm still on the fence about it. That would be the only possible defect my device has.

I called Tuesday night (and I emailed them Tuesday afternoon). My Nexus 7 arrived with a cracked screen.
I just received the email from google. They sent me a RMA and a prepaid shipping label. There's also a link to have them send me a replacement unit.
The link takes me to my google wallet account, with a new 16 GB in the cart. They don't charge shipping or tax, but put a hold for $249 on your credit card. I have 21 days to return the defective Nexus 7.
I'm a little worried that I am basically buying a new Nexus 7, and not getting priority over someone who ordered today. If I have to wait 3-4 weeks, I will feel like google mislead me about this Nexus 7 replacement process.

Same thing through office Depot. They do next day shipping though but they do that ludicrous credit card hold. Probably the dumbest thing I've ever heard of and makes me not want to order online anymore. Walking into a store you don't pay shipping nor get a hold on your card. Very very inconvenient.

My issue is that there are many other online vendors that handle things fine... mainly Amazon.com. How google is handling this issue is terrible. "oh man, phones are getting flooded, TAKE DOWN THE SUPPORT NUMBER FROM OUR WEBSITE"
I have said this in other threads.... This is the last time I ever buy a device straight from google. Hardware issues can't be their fault 100%, stuff happens... It's how they are handling the problems that is frustrating.

This is what they told me that would happen. I'm still waiting for the RMA email but at least they are sending them out.
Bad news if you're technically buying a new one at zero price. Here in the UK, they've said that pre orders from June 30th are shipping next week, so I'm looking at a week Monday shipment at the earliest. Over a month since the initial order!
On a related note, just how low is this "low speaker volume" problem? I'd say mine isn't the loudest tablet ever, and now I'm wondering if it's possible to get one with louder volume. I have a tiny bit of screen separation and was going to keep mine (everything else is fine, and my screen's just the tiniest bit higher on the left than the right). However, if the volume is lower than it should be...
Also, anybody notice headphone volume also isn't very loud? Just loud enough to be acceptable, but not loud enough to be too loud. I'm used to devices starting to get too loud at about 75%.

I did receive all the emails in regards to the exchange, I'm just waiting on any sort of shipping notice. The only thing that bothers me is I checked my card and I have 3 pending charges from the play store in the amount of the tablet. Not just one, I know I won't be charged if I return the defective unit in 21 days but why 3 charges?

Was on hold for 45 minutes, guy picks up, tell him about the speaker issue I'm having (distortion), was really nice, talked to supervisor for a few minutes, said ok, we can't do much here from my screen but in an hour you should get an email with someone getting more info about the tablet and sending you a replacement. Took an hour total I think, got the first email now, waiting for the follow up, RMA seems super easy like Amazon and the Kindle fire, same practice. I'll try to keep you guys updated?

I called in on tuesday night, hour on hold, spoke to the guy for about a minute about my backlight. He took my email info and I got an email regarding the ticket being created. I was told 24-48 hours for someone else to contact me. They have about 10 hours left to get to me within their window.
Honestly, this is nothing like amazon. I've had to exchange items before, they usually send it out overnight, then have you ship back the defective item once you get the new one. At this point, im never buying from google directly again.
This is Googles first tablet and some of the blame could be because of Asus, so you can't fully blame one or the other. To quit using them forever is stupid, so they had a hiccup, boohoo. All major companies have "hiccups" and people still get past them. Just try to enjoy it the best you can, it's frustrating, trust me, 2 days and a bad speaker already? But how is this Googles fault, they didn't build the tablet. They funded it perhaps, but they receive all the blame. **** happens when you build a mini computer so small and cheap.
I too received an email straight away after I registered a RMA, yet I'm still waiting for the email with details, from the second tier support. I haven't read about anyone receiving this email yet. Maybe we should start an epic "where is my RMA email" thread, to rival the Play store shipping thread?

Hahahah that would be hilarious. Getting a RMA tablet before some people bought/got their first one.
I emailed Google Play a couple days ago and called today. They just replied my email a minute ago.
No questions asked, they just sent me the UPS return label and let me place an order for a free replacement.
After the new one is delivered I have 21 days to send the defective one to them or else I get charged for it.
Overall a pretty pleasant experience. Hope the replacement doesn't take too long to ship.
Called once......Said they would send RMA
None came
Called again........Said they had no record of my call. Said they would send an RMA.
Never came
Calling third time.....filed BBB report on Google.
Tomorrow......have stop payment put on my credit card.
Just sent an email, it'll be interesting to see how quickly they respond. I don't really want to get a replacement TOO soon. I'd rather they have a chance to work out some of the initial manufacturing kinks. Hopefully they have some mechanism for checking units before sending them out as replacements; I don't really want to go through this process too many times.
Update, RMA email arrived.
18th 1120 - took delivery
18th 1300 - email support asking for replacement
18th 2200 - rang support asking for replacement
20th 0400 - RMA email arrived
20th 0830 - order replacement through the custom google wallet method
20th 0831 - notice that the UK google play says 16GB N7s are "coming soon"

It's acceptable to you that an RMA request cannot be approved by the CSR and must instead be escalated? This is not a hiccup. This is failure built into the system. I was told to expect a response within two weeks. Inadequate customer service for buyers from Google Play is entirely Google's fault.
I don't understand why we should be so forgiving of a behemoth like Google. This is not a small company or startup suddenly finding itself in over its head.

I never faulted Google for the hardware, re-read what I wrote. I am faulting them with how they are handling the mess created by all of the defective devices. As it stands, it has been more than 48 hours since I contacted them and I have nothing to show for it. I called again this morning, on hold for over and hour to final get to a CS rep that was unable to do anything but to say wait until Monday.
Just to keep a timeframe of events..
Received the item Tuesday 7/17
Backlight issue was apparent right away, called google. Help ticket was created with a 24-48 hour window for a response by google's escalation team.
Fast foward to today, 7/20. called again, now im being told to wait until monday for some sort of contact.
This is completely unacceptable service. If by monday, I dont hear anything I will file a chargeback with my CC and make google deal with it.

22nd I got the email RMA and new order sheet
Shipped on the 24th, here today on the 25th. Less than a week overall. Still had my tablet the whole time, will UPS it back tomorrow after work.
This is for the 8GB models btw, I heard it's a week wait for the 8GB but 2 weeks for the 16GB (through an email). Might help those who are still waiting.

No issues here. Screen looks fine, speaker works, feels like a solid tablet. Already restored my latest backup and running fine. Other one is unrooted, locked and back in the box.
how long did you waited to get an email with the ups shipping label for shipping the defect tablet back?
Monday evening: called in for RMA request
Tuesday evening: Received RMA instructions and UPS label. Placed order.
Thursday morning: Received UPS and Google email shipping notification for device arrival scheduled for Friday, tomorrow. Shipping is showing as "2 day".
Replacing 16GB for screen lift and faulty accelerometer sensor.
It took them over a week from 1st call to get the rma and replacement email. I called on the 16 got the emails yesterday.

They say you have 21 days to return your original tablet or else they charge you the full price. When does this 21 days counter start? From the time you fill the RMA, or from the time they ship the replacement?
I got a call today around 3:00pm from an 800-number claiming to be Motorola. They state that my phone order, which should have arrived today, has been delayed. They told me they were working on getting those out as soon as possible. Anyway, they asked if I wanted to cancel the order... I did (which I tried to cancel in the past because of a design error - I have sense reordered with the appropriate design).
Anyway they offered a $35 promo code.. for future purchases I recon.
Has anyone else received this phone call??
No communication at all and neither did my phone come in today. Their site still says expected delivery of 26th but nothing. I've tried to contact several times with no luck. Nobody knows where my phone is at Motorola.

I got no shipment email but phone showed up today.
I received a call last Thursday. They had me on hold for 45 minutes while they tried to track the phone down. They weren't able to and told me I would receive a call on Friday. I haven't received a call back yet.
I did not get a phone call. I did get an email saying that it was delayed by two weeks......and I would be getting a $25 promo code. I called two days later to try and find out where my phone is, and no one seems to have a straight answer. They are now sending me a free turbo charger. They used the " we have a very high demand for the moto x " excuse. I responded with apple has sold twice as many phones as you guys and they don't have these problems. I see it as being stupid and silly.
So who knows when I'll actually get it.....I'm waiting for my pure edition on Oct 13 too. We'll see how bad they botch that one too.

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.

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:

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.

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.

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...
