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.

I can tell you, it will be the last thing of value that I will purchase from them. Good deal, horrendous shipping and less than average customer service.

And just an update, I have received my Nook in fine condition, and just took the slow route.

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.

[Q] When did you preorder your S5, and when did you receive it?

I preordered my S5 on March 23rd, with an expected ship date of the 8 or 9th. I then added a friend to my new mobile share plan and he decided he wanted the s5 also. So I ordered his on the 31st of March.
His showed up yesterday, 4/09, and mine is scheduled to arrive today, 4/10.
One would think preordering would be a first come first serve basis. But nope, not with AT&T. One shipped from Tennessee, one shipped from Texas. Texas, being geographically closer to me in California, is the shipment that is arriving a day later.
Now, this isn't a big deal to me, but I am a bit annoyed that I wouldn't get it sooner, based on my immediate preorder. And ultimately I will probably leave it in the box until you crafty people find a way to hack it. If not, I'll probably stick with my TWRP enabled S4 which works great still. (had to replace the LCD, which is the entire reason I preordered the S5.)
Just curious when you preordered, and when you received, let me know.

Order was placed: 10:05 AM CDT March 28, 2014
Received: April 10

I live in Dallas and ordered mine on 3/29. It was marked to ship on 4/8, due 4/10 by 4:30 CST. It shipped from Ft. Worth to Dallas, back to Ft. Worth, then to Addison (a Dallas suburb) before heading to me. It's maddening but I'll have it within a couple of hours.

Ordered black via premier 3/21 @10:15pm, Fedex shows delivery at 12:21pm today, 4/10
FYI -- lots of people were posting here that they got an alert their phone had shipped. I didn't get my alert til late last night and my order status had been "Preparing to Ship" for quite a while. However, FedEx tacking info said it actually went out on 4/8 despite the lag in notifications to me.

I preordered on the 3/28 and I got mine 4/10!

3/21 pre-ordered
4/10 currently wandering around downtown in a big brown truck.

Pre-ordered 3/21
Just left work early to snag it. The excitement was too much.
It shipped from Texas, I am in Pennsylvania.

Ordered on 3/23 and got it 4/9.

Ordered S5 on 4/3 and got it on 4/9. Orderd Gear 2 Neo on 4/4 and got it on 4/8. Cruel joke by AT&T to send the watch before the phone. lol

Ordered mine on Monday got it today FedEx.

Ordered 2 on Sunday (7th) , one black and one white. Got the black one via FedEx on Wednesday (9th), got the white one today (10th).

Ordered on March 25th, got it today via USPS Priority 2 day.

I have pre ordered on April 02 and I have got the shipped on 7th and delivered on 9th.

Ordered both a charcoal grey and a shimmery white one on 3/28. They were both delivered on 4/9.
What's weird is that the grey one shipped from Fort Worth and the white one from Memphis. I received shipping notifications for both on Monday 4/7 and the white one just hung out in Memphis till 4/8 while it waited for the grey one to arrive in Memphis as well. Then they both arrived on my front porch the next day at noon.
My old phone told me they were delivered so I did a surgical strike running home from work at lunch to scoop them up and get them to a secure location.
Beautiful phones, both of them.

For whatever reason, I couldn't preorder on AT&T's site (Premier). It said my plan was not compatible with that phone. Must've been a bug on the site, for kicks I tried adding serveral different phones (including basic phones) to my shopping cart and received the same message.
So I ended up preordering it at Best Buy, and I'm going to pick it up today. It comes with a $10 gift card, so I guess I can't complain too much about not getting the phone a few days early.

[Q] Fastest Way to Get One?

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...

When should I expect my T-Mobile LG G6 to arrive?

I preordered the Platinum/Ice LG G6 and I just received a tracking number for my order. It says there was an origin scan in Kentucky and that it should arrive Thursday, March 30. Should I really expect it to be here that soon even though the phone doesn't come out until April 6/7th?

Yes, several T-Mobile folks have already received them. The rest of us poor bastards (VZW, ATT, Sprint, USCC) are still waiting, although a couple of VZW and ATT customers can now see their tracking info for the shipment. Good luck!

it will be there on the 30th if it already has the origin scan. Got mine yesterday with standard shipping to Texas.

I ordered mine on friday and its getting here tomorrow. It should take 3 days from the day you ordered. Even though the phone doesn't come out till april 7 . If u pre ordered it, u will get in within 3 days.

I pre-ordered the day pre-orders opened with overnight shipping and received it the next day.

I ordered mine on friday and will be receiving it tomorrow so you should be good

ordered mine 3/27 from t mobile. tracking says should be here by 3/30

Mine arrived today charging as I write.

I got mine yesterday (Ice Platinum). I ordered it and used the free shipping. 3 day select. If you order it overnight, you'll receive it as soon as they process the order... which is fairly quick.
Ordered on the 23rd, shipped on the 24th and received on the 28th. Extra time because of Sunday.
