Im just wondering cause I don't really have much to trade in.. I could probably sell my stuff for more on craiglist anyways
Same here!!!
Hello All,
I can also confirm I have my tablet from game stop!!!
Called me earlier, had in store waiting for me.
I'm in Somerville NJ
Checked my messages at home and got a call from gamestop that my nexus 7 is ready for pick up. Headed there now to pick it up!!!
Man these stores are going to get into serious trouble for selling these, and now that they are actually being sold at retail, we still arent getting any word from google about our play store pre-orders, more and more people are getting them at their local retail stores now and no other info what so ever, really a shame as I sold my other tablet early because I expected to get this based on what they had said about availability and you would figure that pre-orders from their site would be showing up on people's doorsteps now if others are actually buying them from places like Gamestop. Of course Gamestop isnt supposed to be selling these, so thats probably why, you are lucky you got it because you werent supposed to
Picked mine up in Ohio, no problems.

Was called at noon to come pick up my nexus from my local MD Gamestop. So happy I don't have to wait until August 7th.
Got mine from Gamestop in North FL. Last one they had and I didn't preorder.

Just bought mine from GameStop. I didn't pre-order.
The only devices they had there were the ones that had gotten pre-ordered, and the guy working there was the only one to pre-order it. So he sold me his reserved one. Said he would wait a little longer and take his girlfriend out to dinner or something.
Made my week.
Reserved it yesterday. Turns out I don't get it for another week or so since they don't have any except for pre orders (and I was the only one).

I won't list the city because we don't have a lot of Gamestops in the state and I don't want ours getting in trouble, but got the text around 9:20AM and a phone call at 10:30 (while on the phone with one store rep who said they couldn't sell it...) saying it was ready for pick up. Went and got it, was told they got an email this morning to "sell them if you got them"...and we were "supposed" to be the August 7th wave...but still got it today...and the price rang up as $99,999.00 originally, took a LOT of finaggling on the clerk's part to get the price down to the $249.99...then the poor kid gave me CASH BACK (the ENTIRE nexus7 was paid for by the trade in of a butt load of "older" games and an ipad 1st gen 16gb, which the nexus was replacing) for my store credit, and I did the math, they didn't pull my extra 20% that they were supposed to...bonus of $20 for me today!
Samclub is selling them also. I'm in line buying it right now.

Seen the "Gamestop ok to release Nexus 7" article this morning. I called mine and they said since I pre-ordered on the last day I would get it tomorrow or Monday. Then my wife got a text saying I could go pick it up today. Don't know who to believe, the manager or the text!
I just talked to a Gamestop rep in Slidell La. Gamestop stores in Covington, picyune and Mandeville are in stock. No stores on the south shore have them yet but she did say they're expecting their shipment later. I guess around 3 pm.

I reserved the Galaxy s4 at my local Sprint store on Monday. Walked in today and they had 8 available. So needless to say, you might want to check your local Sprint store to see if they had any shipments because mine did. By the way I returned the HTC One for this phone and I couldn't be happier.

Sprint won't be my carrier but if they have them in store I would stop by just to check out the phone in person, assuming they have one for display.
Our 2 local sprint stores and BB all got the Sprint S4's in today. I almost bought one, but they would not match the online price of $149 that I could get on sprint.com by adding a new line. So I came home and ordered one up instead. $100 is a $100. But it was nice to play with one in the store a bit before making the final decision.

Wait, what? I thought Sprint delayed all of the S4s. When I called BB about my pre-order yesterday to see if it was affected, all I got was that it wasn't in yet and they wouldn't get any sort of an ETA because of them using drop shipment to (supposedly) get it there faster. I may have to drop in today and see what's up with that. >.>
Edit: Just did so. According to the rep I spoke with, Samsung only shipped the ATT phones. All other carriers' S4s have yet to show up. Anyone else running into something similar?

We went into the Sprint store shortly after they opened on Saturday just to see if they might have received any. I'd heard the delayed rumors too, so was not shocked when they said no. Mgr said he'd got an email the night before saying they might try to scrape a few together and get them there, so check back later. Basically the same story at the BB store 2 blocks away. Called later in the day and the Sprint store had them in. So I went in and played with it for a while. When they could not price match the web price, we went over to BB. They had also received the phones but would not match the price either.
All were Sprint phones, both colors, 16gb. They are getting delivered for retail sales, at least in some areas. Guaranteed. You can call the Sprint or BB stores in Rogers and Bentonville Arkansas to confirm it, if you'd like. They may all be sold out by now as there were folks lined up to look at them, but they had them for a while yesterday, at the least. I had a black one in my hands and ready to buy until the ad match snafu came up.
Sprint stores in NJ had them...but the store by me only had 6, 3 white / 3 black...I walked in after 3hrs of them being opened and they still had 4.

Haha your first paragraph was just be way my several went at one of my local corporate store I reserved a handset at. But when I called a friend at another corporate location just a few towns south of me, she said she had a huge supply but we're running low rapidly. And even at 10:15am the store was PACKED! So in turn, I had a feeling that some stores may have some supply. Which was exactly what happened. Funny, cause the 2 BB stores in Mt area have the Samsung booths. Neither were displaying anything. Which I thought was unusual, cause even though there is a delay, I would have thought that they would at least wanna show Em off

I got mine! 4.2.2 is alot different. Menu's have more to it. Overall I am liking the GS4. Bigger screen, smoother and faster than my GS3. I cant wait until a solid root is out there and for Ktoons OC kernel to come out! I can see this thing rocking 2.5 GHZ with it's quad core! My Quadrant score is already 12,772 stock, so I'm thinking 18,000 is possible!
I'm going to get mine right now! My local sprint store still has some left over from launch. And they're expecting more in tomorrow. Nice inventory scare tactic samsung
Spoke to a sprint employee on the 24th(after they stopped taking pre-orders) and was told they'd only get enough S4s to satisfy pre orders and then would have to wait for "a week or so" for a shipment of S4s for the general public. So I preordered from amazon and they said they'd ship the today and deliver May 1st. But yesterday I called local sprint stores and 3rd one I called said they had one left in white. Amazon preorder cancelled shortly their after . Any way what I took away from this fro any one still looking for S4s is that some sprint stores have general public stock but generally the bigger stores closer to downtown (I'm in Houston). The stores that only have pre order stock just don't know what the hell they are talking about .
I'm in Houston too and got mine from the Westpark store. They had plenty of them. Like 50 or so! Don't know about today though.....

I was at best buy other day and asked the rep in the mobile section and he told me that they would not carry the n6, but he could have been wrong or stalling.
I called best buy after seeing an article that they would carry the nexus 6 and they told me that they were not going to carry it.
Why don't you just get it directly from AT&T website and have it delivered to you? Inventory for the n6 is very weak meeting it's demand right now.

Exactly what he said lol I'm glad no one where I live actually knows about the Nexus 6 or wants one here, So I was able to wait 2 - 3 days and my Local T-Mobile Store still had it for sale.
The problem with BB is that they seem to charge an extra $50 for the phone if you want to pay MSRP for it. When I was looking at the Note 4, they were $50 more than Verizon and refused to price match. Maybe they do that to make up for the no restocking fee.....

Ya, you have to get it from the ATT website as the stores were ordered to send back their shipments. Even if you do get it from ATT you will get some "extras" that you probably don't want from them.

The "extras" can be removed, in my opinion, just get whatever method gets you the phone fastest as you possibly can.
Go to tmobile website and put gear vr in search box and click on gear vr option and order it for 99.99. They did not even advertise that it was available for order. I just ordered mine. I'm thinking first come first serve hopefully, it's sold out everywhere else and tmobile told everyone that they wasn't taking orders till November 27 so order asap.

Awesome. My order does not even say "shipped" from T-Mobile...it just says "Being Processed" which makes me a little concerned that maybe they got a ton of orders and I won't be getting one any time soon. We'll see.
Did you pick regular shipping, or did you pay for next day shipping? I picked the free 2-4 day shipping.
I noticed that the Gear VR is now listed as out of stock the T-Mobile's website.

I picked next day overnight because the lady offered it for free, so why not? LOL.
Then, the next day (sat) I made a follow up, and for the inconvenience, they gave me a $30. credit!
On top of that, I complained to Best Buy last week because when I went to the store to get more information on the unit, none of the Samsung reps knew anything about it, or would make any effort to look into it in the computer. 3 different reps gave me 3 different "possible" dates.... I say "Possible" because they didn't want to bother looking at the computer. All I wanted to do was place an order in store if possible because I prefer to have my CC scanned in person and not have the number sent off to cyberspace.... all they had to do was take my money and they didn't want to, so I said screw it and called corporate and complained (took 5 minutes) and they sent me a $25. gift card LOL. So, essentially this thing will cost me about $45. in the end.
Mine is still being processed as well, now it's back available for ordering when it said out of stock last night...this tells me there system is screwing up so we may not have anything shipping anytime soon ...chatting now with tmobile specialist...will fill u guys in

I did online chat with T-Mobile earlier today, and they assured me I should have it in 24-48 hours, but I am still feeling skeptical. When I look at T-Mobile's website it is still showing as out of stock for me.

Nope...still no shipping notification. The online chat people are useless too. They just keep telling me I should receive it by the end of the week (i.e 2-4 business days)...but since I ordered it on Saturday, you would think it would have shipped yesterday. That leads me to believe T-Mobile F'd this one up.
Wish I did one day shipping now...maybe it would have helped...but Samsung USA online store said they will be shipping back orders on 30th...I have one with them too...so if both come I will sell one for double on eBay

Just got off the phone with T-Mobile. They sadly just confirmed that it is backordered with no anticipated ship date. What a crock.
The girl said they can get shipments on Tuesdays and Thursdays, but that really doesn't help at all.
What a bunch of BS.
So today received an email stating I can call in to have my replacement note 7 sent in to a store near me. So I called and actually the process didn't have any wait time which was great considering every time I normally call, i have to go through the "we will call you back in xxx minutes. Now to issue I'm not happy about.....i asked the rep if I would be getting same color that I currently have (titanium) and he told he that he can't guarantee which color I'll be getting. I told him well if I'm not happy with the mystery color you're sending me, then I'm not exchanging the phone until I get the correct color. I'm not spending $800.00 on a phone and let them dictate my color especially when this whole recall b.s. isn't my fault. Did anyone else experience this?
I called to avoid the head ache of the store and got nothing. I was told to just go to a store tomorrow and call in before I go. So the number they provide is pointless. Called some stores today in Hampton Roads area Virginia and they said they won't have them til Wednesday. Also couldn't just reserve one either. So far not happy at all with this process.
I'm getting the color of my choice per the rep.. Maybe it wasn't a problem because I'm exchanging for the same color

You won't be getting a mystery color. Back in my call center days, I never guaranteed squat either since I was not the one physically sending it out. It's a jerk move we use to pull on customers when were having a bad day, or if the customer wasnt being cool. It's legit ways to piss someone off.
