[Poll] Amazon confirmed orders (32GB Champagne model only) - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

It appears that confirmed orders today seem to be Prime members who choose next day air. Amazon is suppose to work on a first come first serve basis. To think that Amazon would go against their policy of first come first serve is crazy. Well that's what the supervisor I spoke to at Amazon thought, but is now going to investigate this just to be reassured. I told him that Prime membership does not mean priority (jump the line) shipment. It was not setup for that purpose.
I wanted to see if there was a pattern here, so I set this up.
So for this thread, don't comment, just use the poll to say whether you are a Prime/non-prime member and order one day shipping and ordered on 11/22/11 and had it confirmed shipping/shipped. If you can post something like an email as prove or a pic, that would be nice (remember to black-out/omit order and tracking numbers), but not necessary
If this thread seem pointless to YOU, please don't respond, just let it die and don't open it. I know it doesn't serve a purpose to all but I would like to see if Prime is truly undefined "preferred" member program.

There is no poll.

Yes I know, I did as well on the 11/22 non-prime with one-day shipping. updated thread to include that this was for the 32GB Champagne model.

Prime / Shmine. Doesn't seem to matter. I'm not a prime member, I changed my order to 2-day shipping last week, and I just got this today:
We now have delivery date(s) for the order you placed on November 22, 2011 (Order# xxx-xxxxxxx-8173026):
"ASUS Transformer Prime TF201-B1-CG 10.1-Inch 32GB Tablet (Champagne)"

[Q] Amazon cancelling 11/22 pre-orders and sleeve

Did you pre-order on 11/22 and get this email?
Hello,
Due to a lack of availability from our suppliers, we will not be able to obtain the following item(s) from your order:
"ASUS TF201-B1-GR Eee Pad Transformer Prime 10.1-Inch 32GB Tablet (Amethyst Gray)"
We've canceled the item(s) and apologize for the inconvenience. If you see a charge for the canceled item, we will refund you within 1-2 business days.
EDIT: According to emil10001 Asus shipped part of the Amazon order then cancelled the rest causing us to have our pre-orders canceled.
EDIT: Amazon responded:
Hello,
I’m very sorry for the inconvenience.
Unfortunately, when we contacted our supplier, we found ASUS Transformer Prime TF201-B1-GR 10.1-Inch 32GB Tablet (Amethyst Gray) was no longer available. That's why it was canceled from your order--you haven't been charged for it. Once an order is canceled, it no longer appears in your order history.
I'm sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused. Until recently we still thought we'd be able to get the item for you.
EDIT 12/16/11: Amazon is now cancelling the sleeve orders.
Yep, me too

Yup mine just got cancelled. Re-preordered from Adorama.

Quick question. People who got cancelled, did you pay the full 499/599 price, or the discounted 484/584 price?
I ordered mine on 11/22 with the 584 price, and it still shows as "arrive after December 25, 2011"
I paid $493ish. Its weird since the order has totally disappeared from my History.
I dont think they would cancel a bunch of nerds orders over $7... would they?

Full price personally. I'm assuming Amazon isn't getting as many as they initially thought which is why they are canceling many orders. Possibly why they aren't listed on Asus' preorder page as well as why they stopped taking orders before everyone else.
I had the lower price.
Wtf they just cancel my order also, I order on 22nd for $492
i preordered a 64gb amethyst grey for $584.22 on the 11/22, and haven't received any cancellation yet

I wonder if they're getting any at all....
Mine was cancelled, pre ordered for 499.
I pre-ordered at $499 on 11/22. My order has been cancelled as well.
Bright side is I can at least stop fretting over when Amazon is going to ship my order. Haha.
I think it would be ridiculous if they DIDNT. its amazon... something is fishy. But i cant even find my order to contact them about it
I initially had the 64 GB Grey version preordered, earlier. UGH, why did I cancel it.
BTW, mine was the $499 version. My brother preordered it too, at like 7:30 AM EST on the 22nd. Waiting for him to respond whether his was cancelled too.
I ordered regular price on11/22. Canceled. Hope my quick order at adorama works. Lame, Amazon.

Everyones orders whose has been canceled are removed from their history. You can reference your original email or the one they sent stating it was canceled. Again I suspsect they aren't receiving a whole lot of initial shipment and probably decided it best to let people re-order on a first come first serve basis once they do. Hence why they stopped taking orders and their product pages aren't even visible without originally having the url.
Ouch! Guess supply will be short this season...

Come on Amazon get the 64GB out!!!
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
I ordered on the 22nd, but no email for me. Chatted with Amazon and they say it still shows a Jan 10th delivery for me. Maybe because I changed the delivery to next day air, but I would think that they would still keep my order placement rather than put to the back of the line.
Just out of curisoty, can you give pieces of your order number so I can see where I ended up comparied to you?
If I had to guess, and I love guessing this ****, but depending on what Amazon has coming in will probably be posted in order. Hopefully the 64 GB start posting later today.
Told yu'all yesterday, the Amazon billing rep. told me my order (64 GB Grey) would be shipping "very soon." Sure hope he was right.
Wonder how long it'll be before Gamestop sends me my matching dock???
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
Same. Out of curious, were you a Prime customer too?
Any Canadian Primes shipped yet? Isn't Tigerdirect Canadian or something?
When I talked to an Amazon rep. yesterday, I was first told my 64gb grey would ship in Jan. Then I brought up that i was concerned about some people saying it would ship next week and I would be out of town. The rep. then suggested I keep a close eye on my email for a shipping status in the next week. So i asked if that meant it would ship next week and the rep. said they didn't want to say for sure and give false hope. not sure why they have been keeping so quiet about this but it sounds like they've known for a while.
I am a amazon prime member and my membership expires 23th December. Maybe that's one of the reasons amazon is shipping to me the prime on time

Potentially. I fit in this category and mine is preparing to ship.

I'm a prime member, but ordered a 64GB grey. Haven't heard a peep yet.

64 GB Version?

So I see tons of posts discussing preorders of the 32 GB version, but nothing at all on the 64 GB version. Why is this? Is the 64 GB version vaporware like the 32 GB version of the GSM Galaxy Nexus?

Mine (amethyst) has been on pre order since the morning of the 22nd. Still says estimated delivery Tuesday Jan 10th from Amazon with prime shipping. A lot of people have been getting emails saying it wouldn't be shipping until Jan 25th to Feb 8th or so. There was a whole thread about the 64gb version but it hasn't been active in awhile. Anyone else still have a Jan 10th or earlier date from Amazon on one of these?
I don't have the link as it was a tweet last week or so, but I swear to you it said the 64GB versions would be available Q2 2012. I'm not sure if its true or not, but I would not be surprised.
Pretty sure that tweet was referring to the UK version of the tablet... But I could easily be wrong, Asus has been full of surprises during this roll-out.

Ah, perhaps you are right. I noticed it rather quickly as I ordered the 32GB version so I wasn't too concerned. Thanks for the clarification.

Still haven't gotten the email, still says Jan 10th when I check my order status. However there was a thread saying that some German online retailer had the 64GBs in stack and they had actual been received.
I saw an article that said spring 2012, so I switched my efforts to the 32GB.
Thanks for all of the info, guys. I really wanted the 64 GB version, but Q2 would be really annoying. I also have it on preorder at Amazon from a while ago. I'm thinking I'll give it until the January 10 date to see where they stand, and if it keeps getting delayed, I'll begrudgingly switch to the 32 GB model.
Yep, I hear you. I REALLY want a prime as well, however I think patience will pay off in this case. So far I haven't seen any articles that have been backed by any information from Asus about a delay in US shipments of the 64GB version, only the Europe/UK version. Do a quick google (can't post links, since XDA doesn't like me), and note that either all the articles are referring to a delay in Europe, or are referring to the same slashgear article that also talks only about the UK release, specifically to the distributor "Clove".
From my perspective only, I am more than willing to wait for the 64GB version, as I do intend to replace my current netbook with the Prime, and will definitely be using up the extra space (and perhaps future tinkering of integrating Windows 8 with the Prime). But that's just my 2 cents. Keep looking through google news for updates though, as I will be doing the same. I cannot WAIT to get my hands on this machine.
I have a delivery date of January 6th from Amazon. I've been contacting them through chat every few days to see if they have had any updates -- Nothing.
As of this morning, the Amazon CSR told me that they should be receiving their shipment in the next few days - and it looks like my delivery date of January 6th should still be on target...
I figure I'll give it until CES - when I'll be able to see what's to come later in the year. Seeing that, along with all of the negative reviews I'm reading of the Prime in pretty much every forum, may be enough to sway me to finally cancel my order and just wait it out for something more polished.
I just got a shipping notification on my 64gb amethyst grey prime. From tigerdirect.com Hope everyone else gets theirs soon! I'll let you know if its a 64gb that actually arrives.......::fingers crossed::
Ordered on 11/23

This below is from transformerforums
"Henryp
Without divulging information I may not, I will say we received some 32GB units in both colors on Tue. We received some grey 64GB units and some grey docks earlier today (Wed). Each is being assigned to a current back order and they should all leave our warehouse today or tomorrow. PLEASE don't ask how many -- I will not say."

I'm confused. You're canceling your order because it is going to ship sooner?
I assume you bought it somewhere else, and no longer need your preorder on Amazon?
Ah, it seems as though if I use my southern California delivery address, the order would arrive on 12/30. If I use my address in New Jersey where I am now, the order would arrive on 1/3. This is regardless of having one-day shipping for both options. Different distribution centers?
I hurried and checked my email/amazon order status, lol. I order on Dec 20th, not with the pre-sale or previous 1st pre-order batch and my Previous estimated arrival date: January 25, 2012 - February 08, 2012 and still is showing estimated arrival date as the same, no change
Maybe because I ordered the 64gb grey, not the 32gb. But congrats! I'm praying I get the same email, for an earlier arrival date,
What about the dock?
As for the tab, I saved $1 with Newegg and it's coming on the 30th.
Looks like those of us who ordered the 64GB are screwed. I ordered on Dec. 13th from Amazon and still stuck at the original ETA.

Yep, ordered on 22 Nov, and am counting myself lucky to still have an 10 Jan ETA. Interesting strategy ASUS has to bone the folks who were willing to pay the premium for the step up.
I think Amazon got some more units, which is why people are getting these "Good news!" emails.
I predict as Amazon bumps up their supply, more people will start seeing "Good news!" emails. Hopefully though, with people canceling their Amazon pre-orders to get ones from BB, OD, Staples, DataVis, B&H, J&R, Newegg or TD, Amazon will be able to supply more units to those who have already pre-ordered.
I say that because Amazon hasn't been updating their web page to tell people they have more in stock like BB is doing with each new shipment.
I order a pair, one champagne and one black silver, both 32gb. Only got the good news email for the champagne order. Will be delivered by Dec 30 (which is tomorrow!!). No tax from Amazon. Good thing I waited. Yay.

Right, and no official word from ASUS either. I think I'm close to canceling and waiting for the iPad 3 in late Feb. The mixed reviews around here don't help either, I was so hyped for this thing reading all of the official reviews.

TF201-Mobile-Docking-TF201-DOCK-CG post if received or not

I've had my Prime for a few weeks and have been searching all over for the anyone that has received there TF201-DOCK-CG in CHAMPAGNE Gold.
I have seen post stating they have gotten there Gray docks but not been able to find the CHAMPAGNE.
If you either have received this or if this is still on back order status please provide this information.
thanks in advance
Haven't received it yet but I'm expecting it soon. I pre ordered one from Abes of Maine, and another from ShopBLT. Both are expecting to get a shipment of them on the 27th of this month, which is the best I've heard from ANY place so far. Whichever can send it to me first, I'll cancel the other's order.
Thanks for this input this is the same info I have found.
The only one I have seen online that is even offering this on a pre-order is ShopBLT
http://www.shopblt.com/cgi-bin/shop...110020050010_BLL5657P.shtml&order_id=!ORDERID!
When I spoke to the today they did state that this was the third time that they have had a push from the Manufacturer and this was not a firm data by any means. They also stated that while they have 371 coming in the back order was in the 400 range, but they expected 3% would cancel there order.
I guess I will wait and see
There are so many threads on this topic..and thanks for the misleading title.
I ordered one from shopblt.com back on Dec 23rd with a ship date of January 5th. They wrote a very creepy email stationg the name and address didn't match to the card and the email verification could have been spoofed (I used my Gmail add) since it was a public domain. Then they asked me for a photocopy of my drivers license or a copy of my electric or gas bill to verify the address and name. They also stated this shouldn't be of concern because the information I gave them for the order was equivalent to personal info (essentially saying I might as well give the my social security as well ). I immediately cancelled my order as the ridiculousness of it was over my head. Might just have been me but beware! Seemed too creepy

Gary, if you're reading this thread can you shed some light on the absent champagne dock issue?
I have it (well, had, send it back because of backlight bleeding). At least it is for sale in Holland (bundled with the 32GB Prime).
I pre ordered from Amazon on Nov 22 together with the prime. I have had the prime for weeks now but still haven't gotten the keyboard dock. I received an email from Amazon on Jan 12th saying the dock will be delayed and if I still want the order. I said yes, and nothing since then.

Champagne Docks delayed
Well, Champagne docks have now been pushed into February. My PCNation order had been 2-5 days since last week and now is 1-2 weeks. Checking ShopBLT site shows they won't be in until Feb. 7.
I've had this on order since mid December. What the hell is going on?

I emailed Abes of Maine after I got a weird email from them that made it look like I had ordered it only yesterday rather than weeks ago. They said it was nothing to worry about, just that it was to say they received a bunch of them and were shipping them out today and tomorrow. They also said to expect it to be delivered before the weekend!!
So, if any of you ordered from Abe's, you might want to email them and ask if anything new is happening.

Same!!!! so frustrating.
Ordered: Newegg CG Dock In Stock
CG dock still in stock at Newegg. Just ordered with overnight shipping. Charged and processing. Now... To Sell this gray dock lol
My CG Dock order with Tigerdirect (placed Nov 23) changed from "Backordered" to "In Process". They were among the first to deliver the CG tablet, so I assume this means they also received an allotment of CG docks and are starting to fulfill orders.
