Hi. Sorry, if the question sounds strange, but I will be visiting the US for a conference for about a week in a week. It seems impossible to order the Transformer from the usual suspects, since they all require a valid US billing adress and seem to cancel the order if that is at a Hotel. Incredible! So it is not even possible to order for store pickup for me.
Has anyone of you any idea if there is a chance to pick up the Transformer around Orlando in a week or how I could place an order for pickup? Doing this from Europe seems to be the problem.
Any other creative ideas on this topic would be much apreciated!
Thanks a million!
I don't travel international, however when I need to ship to a different address I call my credit card company and add the address as an authorized shipping address and they add it to my account so that when the charge is authenticated, it will pass the address check.
Have you done this already? If not, you definitely need to let your credit card company know you are going to be shipping to an alternate address.
Hope it helps.

i think they have hhgreg store there you try store pickup
I live in south florida and the best buys have been getting them in stock once a week. I'm about 3 hours from orlando I'm not sure about in-store stock up there.
Hello if your luck and BESTBUY have the Transformer in stock when your arround , they have the option of allowing you use a non US credit acrd on their site BUT only for shipping to a US address. Suggest you try nowinstock website and check shipping estimates . hope that helps

That's the problem. BB only ships to US residents, no Hotel adress allowed and they have removed the possibility to check 'Store Pickup' for Transfomers. Aaaahgh! I managed to fall into that pit with both BB and Sears ...

Nope. For Rational Innovate.
There is already a thread for US pre-orders so I thought I might start one for the UK.
The only place I have found so far is that Amazon.de have pre-orders for three versions and they will, of course, ship to the UK.
599€ (less than £500 at today's rates) for the 64Gb gold without dock
719€ for the 64Gb gold with dock
and 727.98€ for the grey 64Gb with dock.
As Amazon don't charge your card before shipping, I have pre-ordered the gold one without the dock as I am hopeful the TF201 dock will fit the TF700T. See my separate thread about this.
Please post any information you get about other sources.
EDIT: Just to add that if you order from Amazon.de with shipping to the UK, they adjust the price to account for the higher VAT rate in the UK.
thanks for these, i'd missed this! is there any indication as to when amazon.de will ship?
another possiblity for UK orders is komplett.ie , who claimed to be aiming to have the TF700T available, with international layout dock, by yesterday, so with some luck they may be in stock monday, then shipping to the UK could be done through postal forwarding at not to high a cost.

Not so far as I am aware. Often Amazon.de get this sort of stuff before the UK but, as they don't charge your card until they ship, you can cancel if you see a better or quicker source without any penalty.
Keep in mind: amazon.de sells the german version which has a qwertz-keyboard. I'm not sure about umlaute, but I guess the key dock has them, too.
Also, the power-supply would be for CEE7/16, which to my knowledge is not usable in UK.
I am currently looking at ordering one from the Netherlands, which should have US-international keyboard, but also CEE7/16

Do komplett.ie ship to the UK? When I looked at other komplett sites, they did not mention international shipping.

Good point but I plan on getting the dockless version so that should not be an issue. And I'm sure the good folks at XDA will enable me to put on the UK firmware pretty soon after release.

Can you explain, please? I thought Germany uses the same power system as in the UK (and also in Spain where we also stay frequently) with just a different plug. I bought my Samsung Galaxy S3 from Amazon.de and am not aware of a problem with the charger.

I was talking about the plug only. It's not that easy to find an adapter that goes "the other way round", most available sets are "local female, foreign male". To use a foreign power plug you will need "foreign female, local male" - if you know that and have access to the correct adapter, everything is fine.

Not yet, have only found komplett.nl, but they do not offer international shipping on their website. Have contacted them about it and am waiting for their response.
If you don't mind overpaying a bit, it looks like easynotebooks.de have a very few grey with dock and gold without dock that they will ship to the UK. They also sell through Amazon.de but it seems that you cannot get it shipped to the UK going via their Amazon store.
Total cost for the gold without dock comes to nearly 660€ with shipping! When Amazon have them, it will be about 612€ so you're definitely paying for being an early adopter.

Alternate.nl allows for international orders (in my case to Germany), plus they list the TF700T 64GB with Dock for pre-orders.
I had problems with their ordering-process and contacted their sales-team - they were really quick and my pre-order is placed with them now. Shipment will be 10,95 Euros vom NL to DE.
komplett.nl whom i contacted last weekend did not respond to me at all.
I ordered an standard one without dock from easynotebooks.de yesterday. The total cost was £570. They shipped UPS Standard same day and it should arrive here tomorrow :victory:

I'm with Orange at the moment and i'm due a upgrade.
I've gone with the Nexus 4 on O2 via Carphone Warehouse Online... See the problem?
I was looking at two pages on their website looking around, one page on New Contract, the prices were £26 with Orange(750mb data) and £31 with O2(1gb data).
On the other page it was £26 with O2 (1gb data).
I accidentally ordered the Nexus 4 online via the UPGRADE section thinking it was the New Contract option.
I've gone through the transaction in my stupid excitement for a new shiny phone. But I'm not with O2.. I'm with Orange... Is this going to be a problem? Will I get a new O2 sim card? :|
I don't mind changing network but the fact I've gone through the transaction asking for an upgrade.. I don't know!
Will they even process my order? (at the moment it's doing checks on me (processing))
No where during the order process did it ask for previous o2 details
Best bet, contact BOTH providers and ask. They will (hopefully) be able to give you straight, truthful answers.
Guess I could wait until I get an email saying it's been successful or not - then phone them about it
That is one way to handle it, and would likely have an order number or other reference number so they could find an answer faster. Downside to that is it might be too late to change/stop it if you were switched to another carrier by accident. Best of luck on this.

Have they just not received any stock? or do they keep selling out? If they keep selling out I am sure there is someway to wait list yourself for the next shipment. I think they are just running low inventories for some reason even amazon is showing out of stock.

Your better off trying a sprint or AT&T store...
Has anyone had any luck ordering one online from Best Buy or even directly from Samsung?
Best buy mobile has them as well. But amazon has them... watch out tho they randomly like to charge a little more than asking price. Its shipped by Amazon (prime) but sold by 3rd party.
the att stores should have them...
I got mine from AT&T. Amazon Prime is your best bet.
My black neo came from best buy online sight unseen.

I work for samsung at best buy. Most stores have not received any. Nobody is happy about it. I can confirm that all stores at least in Fort Worth Texas area will have them friday and best i can tell will at least get 8 so i would still get there early.

According to their online search, none of the stores in the DFW Metroplex have them in stock.
I ordered mine from amazon on the 12th and still waiting for a estimated delivery date.
Best buy online
I just ordered mine from bestbuy.com Should be delivered tomorrow (extra $14.00 for shipping)
I was browsing amazon looking to see if any were in stock the metallic orange said in stock cancelled the silver/black and ordered it says estimated delivery date of 4-22 as soon as i placed the order though i went back a few mins laters says out of stock on the metallic/orange so im not counting on it to be here the 22nd

I pre-ordered about 2 weeks ago with AT&T and they had shipping dates of April 8, but then the Gold/Browns were all delayed until April 30. Try a black if you want to get it quicker, but I have black Galaxy Gear 1 and want new color.
Well my delimma is, I was originally going to order the black/silver from at&t. went to the website had everything ready hit the order button and it errored out said I can't because there isn't any service for my zip code. Must be because I live in the middle of no where

At&t is running a promotion if you order 3 accessories you get 25% off. The watch is included. I already had mine but got the difference refunded from bestbuy because of this. Either way go to https://www.att.com/shop/wireless/accessories/accessorieslist.html Order the watch you want and two $5 items and you will get the watch for $225. It works so even if they are slow to get back in stock it's worth the $75 savings. Otherwise keep checking at BB and show tjis website and they should price match.:good:
Did my replacement order over the phone with Sprint customer support last Sunday 9/11. All I continue to get is emails stating my order is processing. I know others have handled their recall this way as well. Any updates for anyone? Hopefully we don't have to wait weeks when stores are getting them in. Only reason I did it this way is because my note 7 wasn't purchased directly from a sprint store.
Good Morning Dude!! I called a local Sprint Corp store yesterday as I wanted to swap out sooner than later. The Sprint Corp store told me they are only swapping devices that were purchased at a Corporate Store location. Hmmm.....I called the Sprint Telesales 800 line and talked to them. Sprint told me the same thing. Corporate stores are only swapping out devices that were purchased at a corporate location.
I contacted my local Sams club and they told me they would have replacement devices on Wednesday and I could swap at the Sams location I bought the phone from...which I plan on doing Wednesday.
Sprint said that I could refuse shipment on the device they send me and when they get the device back, they would cancel the telesales order.
Kind of a long drawn out process...but that's my plan. If I get the Telesales device prior to tomorrow late afternoon, obviously I'll keep the telesales device. But I don't see that happening.

Well the note 7 i got was a gift from my grandparents. They live out of state and got it at a third party sprint store so the two different sprint corp stores I went to to exchange wouldn't do it because they couldn't pull the order up. I don't know what else to do other then wait for my advance exchange order to ship from sprint themselves.

It is all BS. If my Note 7 did not work good i would be having a fit with them over this. Mine works good so i look at it as a loaner till a New one comes to swap for free. My 2 local sprint Corp stores both said they have none that they got a few in last week but swapped them out. And of course some sold them as new to new people when they're not supposed to. But anyway mine works but the point is it has been awhile now and if the phone gets a scratch or a crack then so be it since they're the ones forcing me to keep it since there is no way for me to give it back to them. Sure i could take it to the store and just wait but then i have to go back to a old phone till it comes out so screw that.

My exact sentiments, I tried stores and of course I could go back to best buy since that's where I bought it but I have a order for a replacement through sprint that they will mail me, so I will wait for that instead of this hit and miss nonsense other people are going through
Same here. My time bomb has performed flawlessly so far. I'll just keep using it until they send my replacement. Or it goes boom.
It is now Oct. 5th and still nothing from Sprint about my order shipping for my replacement Note 7. Anyone else received any updates?

Looking back through my emails, it looks like it was placed on the Sept 10th
I've already swapped my device. I'm having Bluetooth problems and am going to contact Sprint and ask them if I can swap my already swapped device for the one that is being delivered. They are expecting a specific serial number to be returned. Who know how that conversation will go....but it's worth a shot.
Got a text this morning with a tracking number and when I checked it, it says to be delivered today so I will be getting mine this afternoon.
