want to hear from others that were wronged by amazon wireless.... After doing my research on what phone I wanted, I took advantage of the deal going on @Amazon wireless on Thanksgiving, where you got the skyrocket for a penny--- went thru the steps---approved thru AT&T--showed IN STOCK ordered it.... Supposed to ship within one week (2 day free shipping...yeah right) So the next day I return to the site to gain more info---now I see the skyrocket is "not available" backorder... Thought , good thing I bought yesterday (said IN STOCK when I cashed out) so I check my order and find that ship date is JAN. 9 ! Ordered on Nov 24th, I called in and found that they threw me in the backorder pool...That is BS I told them , because it said IN STOCK when I purchased... Had this info been laid in front of me @ time of purchase I may have done something diff. Even now if you go to the site, it will show "backordered, ships in 1 - 2 weeks--really? And my order from Nov 24th goes all the way to Jan 9th? So, looking for others wronged by Amazon..... . I also checked with both at&t and Samsung. ...no shortage of skyrockets........... Thanks for listening
Sorry about your bad luck my friend. Mine showed up from Amazon two days after I ordered it.

I ordered on the 21st and didn't get it until the 28th because Amazon shipped too late in the day for ups to send it on time in 2 days.
I also ordered on Monday 11/21 and got mine Wed. 11/23...sorry for your bad luck. But you still got it for $.01 right? I've checked prices and they're now at $189 or something.

Ordered the 22nd and got it overnight the 23rd..got to play with it on my days off for thanksgiving.
Republic wireless has hosed me though..i ordered from them the same go-live night and i am not getting shipped till xmas..that's a month and half late..
hope its worth the $19 unlimited everything deal for my wife.
Wow bummer.. least its only a penny for the wait
I ordered on the 25th and it said I should get it Dec 8th. I'll check and verify that's still the case. When I ordered it, it said it was out of stock, so I was expecting a delay. But Jan??? That's a bit much.
Amazon Wireless actually sent me two Skyrockets.
I originally placed an order but was required to do a manual review by ATT/Amazon and was too lazy to do it at the time so a few days later I placed another order and actually did the manual review. After I finished the manual review I got a confirmation of the first order as well as the second one.
I get two shipping emails but only one new number email. I figure it is a mistake and that Amazon would catch it before shipping after the Thanksgiving Holiday. A few days later I have two Amazon boxes sitting at my front door. I only opened one line but have this extra Skyrocket sitting on my desk.
I love Amazon.
EDIT: I'm sorry if I got your phone.
Oh you got my phone! I'll PM you my address si tgat you can forward it to me ASAP
LOL

eh i got a 249$ phone for .01 ... even though it took a week to arrive i am still happy with it.
at least they still honored the .01 price if it was out of stock .. most black friday sales just tell you that you are sol if the item is out of stock.

Tracking says it got delivered today.
I ordered on 25th as well and mine should be delivered tomorrow. Along with SGS II and Captivate Glide (Moving 3 lines from Tmobile)
I ordered 1AM on Tuesday and it arrived 3PM on Wednesday. I was actually impressed because I was expecting it the following Monday after the holiday.
I'm sorry you still have to wait. But for a $.01...I wouldn't mind the wait. Maybe you can get them to send you a white one?

I think my wait was attributed to Captivate Glide because it was suppose to ship in "8 - 10 days".

Amazon's customer service is top notch. They use all their muscle to right any wrongs. My guess is that you will be getting your device much sooner than Jan 9.

Any places you find can be added to my master list, I'll add a Canadian section.
It's available a TigerDirect.ca but it's a ripoff, the tablet is on sale for 574 and the dock 172, so in total a good 100$ extra than the regular price. The catch is, they list it as shipping in 3-5 days, i bought one, and after chatting with a agent, he said everything is backordered until at least june 25th. So basically, it's a smart way to try and make an extra 100$ off having the "exclusivity" of the first ones to sell it in canada

Yeah, I mentioned this in the OP. I was tempted to do it anyway but no champagne...
Hopefully amazon will have them soon!
sorry, didn't read all op. but amazon aren't too fast to move their stock up north, my money would be on ncix since they already have their template page up but inactive for a few days: http://source.ncix.com/asus-tf700t-transformer-pad/
EDIT: Ok so this morning it was just a page with no way to click the buy button but i can now see that the buy button redirects you to the actual product. The only things is that the actual TF700T is not on their website if you search for it, only if you use the link i have. In any case, the price is 499 so i just put in my order and i'll be patiently waiting until the probably stock fill day of july 25th

Sitting here with my new Acer A700...would have got the TF700T but I need something for my trip in early August.
Despite all the reported issues with the A700, fine with me so far, but I would like to give the TF700T a spin...so tempting to preorder this from NCIX and see if it ships in time for my trip.

Damn it! That's so tempting but I want a 64GB/Champagne! I went through this last time with the Prime, too. 64GB and gold ones were the very last to ship...
meh, i dont really care for the 64gb because the only things that take up space is my music, and that i have on my GS3

True enough, plus I have 2x 32GB cards already so that could be 96GB of total space... But I'm still wanting the champagne colour.
Tigerdirect.ca shippment notice - on it's way?
Hi, ordered a TF700t from Tigerdirect Tuesday morning. I received my shipping notice Wednesday morning. I should have the table by Friday (or Monday). But.... I've also seen when shipping notices are created but they aren't actually shipped until later. Not sure if this is happening here.

same thing happened to me, except i ordered monday night. then i called in on tuesday and asking them if the item was in stock and they said that even though my order was marked as shipped, it is back ordered until the 25th. This is just a very stupid way to keep customer exited about their inflated prices.

Wow that's actually the most stupid thing...
I have a pet peeve for poor customer service so if that was me, I would have cancelled the order before even getting off the phone...
If it's a 32GB, you might as well order from NCIX and save yourself some $$$.
Yup...done! I've been a client of NCIX for years, should of waited for them instead of letting my geeky impatience guide me, at least i know they dont have a dildo waiting for my a**h***

Of course just after I posted my last comment I checked my Tigerdirect / UPS tracker and in fact my order has actually shipped and it's some were in the States.
But I will only half apologize to Tigerdirect because it still is $90.00 more than B&H.
So a small hurray for Tigerdirect.
Mr. D.
hmm NCIX or Tiger Direct, I'm willing to pay more but if it's going to be delayed anyway I'll just use NCIX....or maybe just wait til memory express starts selling it, but it could be 3 weeks from now...decisions decisions...
Has there been any dates set for Canada yet?
I have only read that it will be early August but that's it

This could be a blessing in disguise...at least for me...latest from samsung note 10.1 spec is really looking good, 1.4 quad core, 2 gb ram, s pen, 5mp / 2mp cameras, ir universal remote control, sms capability thru the phone (probably thru blue tooth like the smart watches....only missing is the hd screen..
My infinity arrived
Hi all,
Infinity arrived from Tigerdirect Monday July 23. All is good . Need to find a case, etc.
This is my first time ordering directly from hihonor.com. I ordered Saturday morning and I'm wondering when it'll likely ship out. Anyone else order from them? What was your shipping time like?

maybe u could track your ider from hihonor.com to know the date
Most orders will send you an email when the order is shipped. When I ordered from Newegg that was the case. I'm sure it will be the same with you. Ordering a product on Saturday or Sunday are usually not even processed up until Monday since Monday is Business day 1. And huawei also states it could take 1 business day to ship so out of anything it should ship tomorrow. *Tuesday*
its the same case with all, it takes 1 business day to ship, sometimes it may take 2.
I'm just curious how fast other people's orders have shipped. Thanks for the response XjokiX7! Looking forward to receiving my Honor 8.
A friend of mine got it in a week
My order shipped from Ft Worth, TX. So if it's delivered as scheduled, the time from order to delivery is about 4 business days. Not Amazon speed, but not too bad!

Give it 4 work days when having it in stock. But as you know, parcels get lost and damaged, but not likely.
You should be able to see the order status at the HiHonor website.
Delivery is funny from HiHonor. Booked phone on 14th. It showed at 3rd stage out of 4 (Order, Payment, Shipping/ed, Delivered) , warehouse got order on 15th, Shipped on 16th. till time status is Shipping. On 17th evening, it showed FedEx Track no and Status on Stage is "Delivered". To whom.. God knows. Went to FedEx site, it said, wait for day.
So commitment of 5-7 days looks true.
So I bit the bullet and decided to wrap the Note9 and found that only SlickWraps lets you buy wraps for the sides of the phone. So went ahead and ordered them on the 8th of this month.
At this point the order has not changed status at all. They are also not responding to any customer tickets. Nothing, it's like there's no one home.
I was wondering if anyone else got anything from them, and if you did, how long did it take you to get it?
They are SLOW during their sales. I too bought 3 skins this time during their 70% off sale. The last time I bought during a sale, I didn't receive my items for 3 weeks. I emailed them and like you got nothing for a while. Eventually they did let me know that during and after a site sale their shipping and email response times are longer than usual. Hope this helps.
I should have learned my lesson from last time this big sale happened. My order that was placed on the 8th is still waiting to be arrived at a USPS facility. Label created only. My second order placed the on the 9th still has no shipping label created.
This will be the last time I order from them at all. Sale or no sale. They don't even respond to emails. Small operations. Mom and pop-like operation from the looks of how they're running things. Dbrand is not much better than them in this regard. I think skins are dead to me because of the selling experience as a whole.

Least you got some movement. I'm still in processing. And I completely agree with you, this makes me never want to buy a skin again.
I should have learned my lesson the first time.
I ordered some during the holiday season and like another user stated took about 3 weeks to get to me. Understandable during the holidays. Now I have placed an order and have not heard anything for over a week.
Last time I order from them. I could care less they are made in the USA. Make them in China and ship them out sooner.
I ordered mine on the 5th of this month and is still processing. I emailed them and 3-4 days later they emailed me back stating that during their sales they get behind but assure me that once my order is complete I will receive a tracking number. Going on 2 weeks already.
Very annoying. Last time I ordered, took 4 days to receive item. I think this will be the last time I order from SW

Not in the US so my usual shipping is 2 weeks if I order from them. Currently waiting for 2 orders. First order made March 17. Second order made March 29. Guess what? My March 29 order got tagged as shipped last April 3. March 17 order? Got tagged as shipped last April 17. The problem is I still order from them. Oh well. I'll just have to wait, i guess.

After waffling between a 4a 5G and a 5 I finally pulled the trigger on a 5 during the Black Friday sale for $50 off. I had also hoped by waiting that Google would resolve the screen glue issue. Order date was Nov 30. Retiring my old 2 XL, but would have kept it for another year if updates kept coming.
My listed shipping dates have always been Dec 29-30. From time to time I've checked the store for current shipping dates, and the phone has actually been out of stock for a couple weeks, but they did have stock for Fi and Verizon with almost immediate shipping. I last checked yesterday.
Early this morning I received notice from my credit card company that Google finally charged my card. My shipping dates are still listed as Dec 29-30. I decided to check if the phone was back in stock, and if so, what current shipping dates are. Yup, back in stock, shipping dates for current orders listed as Dec 16-19. During the time it took to write this post, shipping dates changed and just now listed as Dec 23-25. Both these dates are obviously earlier than my listed shipping dates.
I suspect they just received a new batch from manufacturing and my phone is about to ship, but the changing dates are a bit weird and I've never experienced that before. I'm usually a first day, first minute orderer for my Pixels and I'm used to being in the first shipments.
Anyone else get charged overnight? Did your shipping dates get updated?
A few months ago I bought a 4a pre-order and I got stuck with a later shipment than many people. I was not too worried and it arrived when it was supposed to but I also didn't get the charge until it was ready to go like usual.
If it's coming FedEx ground they're probably calculating that in right now -- the real issue is once the label is made and sent to FedEx, if that's today, then by tomorrow you should know what the real ETA is
are they doing USPS? lots of people been getting delay on USPS shipment.
I did standard (free) shipping. Who knows? I'm waiting for Google Store support chat right now. I started at #169 in line. It's going down at a rate of about 1 per minute. Sheesh. Current shipping dates for new orders showing Dec 25-29. My order is still just showing "Ordered".
I had a similar issue but found out some great answers from a customer service rep. I also was quoted a late December delivery when I placed my order in late November. Mine shipped early because their new shipments for fi arrived early.
This is how it goes.... its crazy.
They will temporarily charge your card if you move up in the order "queue". They will then refund the money into your account a few days later after they verify the funds are available. This means the order is getting ready to get processed finally.
You will finally be charged the due amount when the order finally goes to the warehouse for shipping.
They wont permanently charge your account until the phone is sent to shipping. If they haven't refunded the money into your account I would bet that your phone ships very soon.
I was getting tired of the late shipping times and lack of answers so i created a reddit ticket. My phone shipped 24 hours later. Give that a try if things dont go well.
Hope this makes sense.
Over an hour later and I am #82 in line. Had to plug in the laptop!
Finally had a chat.....answer was basically, yeah you're right, newer orders are shipping before yours. We can cancel your $50 off order and you can re-order at full price for earlier shipping. Uh....no....I'll wait, and just stew about it. That's a pretty good summary of the chat. Not too happy.
So.....interesting developments this morning.
I awoke to an e-mail from Google, posted below.
**************************
Hi **********,
Thanks for contacting Google!
As promised, I'm sending this email to you.
This email is in reference to the chat conversation we had today regarding your order status- ******Order Number*********
I'd like to assure you that your order is perfectly fine from our end.
It will get delivered within the time frame- Dec 29, 2020 - Dec 30, 2020
And it'll get shipped a couple of days before that.
You'll also receive a shipping confirmation email once it'll be out from our end.
Stay assured, you'll get your hands on it very soon.
For the inconvenience, I'll be adding $50 to your Store Credits.
Also, I am sorry for the long wait that you experienced but thank you for your kind understanding and patience.
I would like to offer you extra $10.00 Store credit as a good will gesture.
You may check that by visiting the link *****This was a hyperlink****
In case of any discrepancy, please feel free to reply to my email, I'll be right here for your assistance.
Stay assured, I've taken full ownership of your case.
Thanks!

***************************************************************
The link took me to Google Pay which showed nothing, but when I checked the Store, I did, in fact, have a $60 credit, which expires on 12/31/2021.
Not only that.....today I received notice that my order has shipped through Fedex, with an arrival date of 12/21/2020. It's shipping from Carol Stream, IL. In the past all my phones have shipped from about 20 miles away from me.
So I have gone from being very unhappy and questioning my loyalty to Google products to being very happy. I think I am going to use my credit for a Pixel Stand, but maybe a new Nest Audio, but I've got so many Google Homes (full size and minis) and Chromecast products that I really don't need anything but the Stand. I also suspect the Stand, which is WAY overpriced, will go on sale again relatively soon. So we'll see.
In any case, I wanted to be fair to Google. I'm very happy with the way they handled this.
Ordered from Google France on 15 Dec, shipped on 16, arrived today.
