Hey all! Anyone heard back from NCIX regarding their order? I'm in Vancouver and NOT patiently waiting for them to call me to come pick it up.......
Happy Holidays to everybody !
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk
i preordered the 32gb Grey model and im in the same situation as you i kept checking my phone today hoping to receive an NCIX email! hopefully it will come tmrw!
I also have one at NCIX with no date given. I ordered 5 on Amazon for what is to be the second shipment. so If you really need one and I get them before yours comes in. Let me know I will not be marking them up just getting rid of them.
Told NCIX to cancel my order if they didn't have a date for me. I guess I'll hear back tomorrow or the day after (because it takes that long to cancel) and make a decision.
They will make you confirm you want to cancel with another email. it wont be that simple. trust me done it already.
it seems like its impossiable to get information from NCIX over emails, its better to walk into a store (if there is one near you) and ask for your information.... i did that last week and i found out that i was the 32nd person to preorder the tablet out of like 120+ people soo hopefully ill be getting mine soon... but they never gave me a release date..
What location did you walk into?
I am trying to figure out what # I am also.
I walked into the the store at First Markham Place located in Markham Toronto,
I also just recieved this email from NCIX.
Dear speX,
Thank you for your patience as we wait for our shipments of the ASUS Transformer Prime. We are receiving our first batches of the 32GB Grey model. Our inventory will be a mix of English & Bilingual packaged versions. Please note that the only difference is the packaging on the box and an extra -CBIL on the part number. The actual Transformer Prime unit itself is identical - there are no physical or specification changes otherwise.
Thank you very much again for your patience!
Sincerely,
NCIX.com Customer Care Team

What was your email to them about to get that email back?
---------- Post added at 02:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:24 AM ----------
Just got this!!
We are happy to announce we just received a shipment of ASUS Transformer Prime 32GB Grey and we are able to ship these out right away! Unfortunately, this shipment is being transferred from Ontario so it will not be available for pickup before Christmas. We are offering $9.99 express shipping (1-2 day air, some restrictions might apply depending on rural areas) if you would like to have your order changed to shipping. If you would like to keep your order as pickup, no further action is required. We will inform you once your order is available for pickup.
You can reply back to us by emailing [email protected] with your information confirming the charge for $9.99 Express Shipping to your Credit Card. If you need to make alternate payment arrangements you can contact us directly at 1-877-624-9777 and select option 1 to speak with a representative who can assist you.
Happy Holidays from the NCIX Customer Care Team!

I sent them an email through the customer care form on the website asking for an ETA on the product.. i guess it took them that long to send me a response. I hope I get my product tomorrow! (I selected the in store pick up option)
---------- Post added at 03:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:29 AM ----------
You just made me very VERY excited
I am stoked!
Sorry Amazon no more 5 Tab order for you!
I wish I could have you pick it up and get you to ship it to me on a overnight! haha
Let me know if anyone who ordered a 64GB got that email! I haven't...
This sure brightened my day.
The email is a response to me asking if the tablet is already in BC warehouse..
That is correct, we have stock available in BC ready to fulfill your order. Please pay attention to your email over the next couple of business days. As soon as your Transformer Prime Tablet is ready the Retail Team will send you a Pick-Up Notification Email. Thank you very much for your patience and have a peaceful holiday season!

Just ordered one for in store pickup in the Langley, BC location. Hopefully not in vain, but I still have my Amazon.ca order to fall back on.
Amazon.ca ordered 11/26
vs
NCIX.com ordered 12/21
And.... GO!
I ordered one from NCIX about 3 weeks ago and under my status it says credit card verified. Still waiting for my status to change, did that happen to everyone else too or should I be contacting a csr? Haven't received email or anything from them yet since the day I preordered...

I ordered my original TF from Frys back in June and they were one of the few online retailers that actually had stock... I'm thinking I'll pre-order here as well.
Just an FYI. Fry's have restocking fees (hopefully you'll love it and not want to return it). And the Tempe AZ store have real a-holes working customer service.
I just called Fry's. The good news is they have somebody answering the phones this late. The bad news is the guy said he has no idea when they are supposed to get the TFP in stock or when they are supposed to ship. He seemed to be looking through their system for an answer but couldn't find one.
I got a preorder in at bestbuy for the 32gb model also. Now on the bestbuy website it says coming soon instead of preorder.
..
I just order my asus prime from bestbuy and it say date ralease 12/18/2011
Given that Fry's is one of the sites that is still listing a preorder, I find it curious that so few seem to have preordered from them.
Not saying our chances will be any better with them, but they can't be worse than a smaller operation like Adorama can they?

Thanks for the heads up about the restocking fee, I don't remember seeing that before. Oops. I don't like restocking fees, but I don't know if I can bring myself to cancel this preorder. Too possible that it's the one that comes through.

As someone else mentioned, Fry's are also now in the 'indefinite holding pattern' for their orders.

Thank you for your order. We apologize but the item(s) you

a definite ship date at this time. However, we continually
receive new merchandise in our warehouse and we hope to fulfill
your order within the next thirty days or sooner if possible.
At this time, your order is still pending and will ship as soon

Damn. That felt like maybe the last remaining option that wasn't Gamestop.
How long until Gamestop starts telling us "next year" I wonder.
With the TF 101 Rollout, Frys was the first retailer I recall to get inventory on the shelf for local pickup.
I preordered my 32gb champagne transformer through Frys earlier today with 'Overnight' shipping, order status says "Order Being Processed".
Frys will likely get a good amount of stock the same time every other online retailer does. I'm pretty confident that they'll ship before christmas.

Just ordered with shipping time between 12/29- 1/3
32gb Grey
Just caught that one and placed an order. Got an email that says:
Order in process of being fulfilled. Estimated arrival date: 12/29/2012 - 01/03/2012
Not going to cancel my other backordered deals with Office Depot or Amazon until I get a tracking number though.
I can't find it, link please...

Man, if Best Buy actually ships these things to people who ordered today, and don't honor their offer to switch backordered Champagne models to Grey and ship those first, I'm going to be PISSED. Yes, I'm posting this in two threads, but that just shows how pissed I am. I NEVER cross-post. Or rarely.
Damn, Best Buy, you just couldn't have screwed this up more.
I had this page open on my browser with the audible notify set to on and it worked:

Man, I feel for yah. Had a similar deal with Office Depot shipping out units to people that odered well after me while I was on backorder. If I cancel my order, someone else will just grab it up though.
I'd preferred the gold version, but this'll do.
ShopDiscover.com gives a 10% discount on purchases through bb.com
But it states: Offer not valid on laptops, desktops, hard drives, Geek Squad services, online photo center sales, digital downloads, long distance or internet sales, or mobile plans
Wonder if this tablet is considered part of the laptop/desktop restrictions.
This makes no sense if it is true. Mine is supposedly back ordered to mid Jan./Feb......
Hallelujah
I've been waiting on Best Buy to update their site for the longest.
I just ordered.
12/29-01/03/2012 is the estimated arrival , my grand total was only $529.64 after tax as I was able to use my $5 dollar off Reward Zone coupon.
and the shipping is FREE
Thanks! I just ordered. I thought this christmas was gonna be a bummer, sold my og transformer last week and was going through withdrawals.
And those backordered ppl I hope they saved some for you and send em to yall first.
Is it champagne that is backordered? I wanted grey anyways so it don't matter. Just need a dock now.
Was planning on getting from gamestop so I could get free games, but I can't wait.

So using shopdiscover.com for the 10% cash back bonus, if the bonus is given on this tablet then it'll come out to be cheaper than Amazon even with shipping.
Just bought one right now from best buy for my girlfriend.

I've been stressing all for like 2 weeks now on how I was gonna get this ting. I'm stationed in Germany and wanted to pre-order, but with so many options negated by no shipping to APO I was in a rut. YOU MADE MY DAY!
Order submitted! Estimated Arrival: 12/29-01/03/2012
Score
Just ordered, thanks for the heads up, it should arrive next week, my dock also shipped from newegg. Happy Holidays to all!!!
P.S. I'm still on the look out for a champagne one for me, wifee is all set
Glad I was able to help. I am so excited, keeping my jan. 26th amazon order for a few more days just in case. I am so glad this is almost over...
You all realize you just ordered from the company that has about 100 pages talking about how stated delivery dates are pretty much meaningless. I wouldn't cancel other pre-orders until you have a tracking number. It's hard to believe BB cleaned up their act in 72 hours.
SICK!!! OP just saved Christmas for me. Will deliver on the 27th!!!!

My boss actually gave me an Ipad2 yesterday as a xmas bonus but I sold it last night and used that plus an extra 50 bucks to order at Bestbuy.com. I hate paying for taxes but Amazon taking too damn long!!! Thanks for heads up.

THANK you VERY MUCH. I just ordered two GREY 32 GB PRIMES from Best Buy which will be delivered on Wednesday 12/28 using your link. One of these is for a friend. This is my 5th order for the PRIME I will need to look at cancelling the other 3 (2 from Amazon and 1 from GameStop).

Good stuff 3 day delivery too bad i already got mine lol
Thanks! Ordered mine. The Chat rep said I should receive it on January 5. No way to expedite shipping. See below:
Richard: Please know that since the item is delivered from the different warehouse locate, the order status is " 3 Days Delivery Pending ". However the order will be delivered on Thursday, January 5, 2012 08:30 AM - 05:00 PM
My take on this is that "different warehouse locale" means that it's coming directly from ASUS, which is why he couldn't expedite the shipping.
Well while I was chatting they went out of stock. I was trying to see if I could pay extra for quicker shipping. I had one in my cart and everything. FML lol
sold out!!!! doh

Don't get your hopes up on the OD order. I ordered back on the 12/21 and was told I'd get it on the 27th. Not happening. I just finished chatting with a rep and didn't get much more:
Chat Transcript
Please wait while we find an agent to assist you...
You have been connected to Steve.
Steve: Hi Don
Steve: Good morning
Steve: I am glad to assist you with your concern.
Me: Good morning
Steve: We apologize for the inconvenience.
Steve: May I have the order number
Me: xxxx
Steve: Thanks, let me check on the order
Steve: I am sorry the item is out of stock as of now and we do not have the restocking date updated with us
Steve: I would request you to get back to us with 2-3 business days as our warehouse team is working hard on its availability
Me: I chatted with a CSR just prior to ordering and she told me that it would definitely ship out and I'd receive it on the 27th. She was very confident about it so I went ahead and ordered it.
Me: Clearly she was mistaken. What can be done about this?
Steve: We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused
Steve: Please get back to us with 2-3 business days as our warehouse team is working hard on its availability
Me: Can I have some sort of credit applied due to the misinformation I was given?
Me: So far you're the 3rd rep I've chatted with and each has asked me to check back in 2-3 days. I'm losing confidence in that answer, unfortunaly.
Steve: Please know that due to low stock the item has to be shipped from a different location and so it is taking time to get to the ware house near to your location and it should be in stock within 2-3 business days
Me: I understand, but that is NOT what I was told when I ordered it. I was told that it WAS in stock and that it would ship in time for me to receive on the 27th. When I placed the order I again chatted with a rep who told me to wait 2-3 days for the status to be updated. Now you're telling me that it's NOT in stock but that I should still wait 2-3 days for more information. I know it's not your fault, but I need a better result then "check back in 2-3 days"--simply because apparently I have not been given accurate information from the very beginning.
Steve: I will escalate the issue to the higher authority and they will get back to you within 4 business hours with the exact delivery details
Steve: May I have your contact phone number
Me: sure thing. It's xxxxx
Steve: Thanks, please give me a moment while I escalate the issue
Me: Thanks, Steve
Steve: Thank you so much for your patience.
Steve: I have escalated the issue
Steve: Is there anything else that I can assist you with?
Me: Thank you, Steve.
Me: That's it. I appreciate your help with this.

It's available here.
Order before 6pm for despatch today.
I've cancelled my Google Play order to order this one instead!
EDIT: I'd suggest using PayPal. Otherwise you may get this email: [see attachment]
EDIT 2.0: Re-ordered with PayPal address, I'll let y'all know what happens.
EDIT 2.5: They accepted PayPal... But they didn't accept my shipping address for some reason.
EDIT 3.0: I should look before I leap. The watch is now out of stock. Plus you can only use paypal. Even then, they might contest your delivery address. This is only really worth it if Google doesn't ship to your country. Otherwise, I'd suggest waiting for Google to stock them.
I've cancelled my Mobile Fun order and re-ordered from Google.
PSSST. Hey you. Yes, you! Use NEWCLOTH as a voucher code to get a free microfibre cloth worth about £4!
Have you ordered from them before?
edit...decided to order from them. Delivery is a bit cheaper and I got cash back. Hopefully they'll dispatch it tomorrow and I can go get if from the Post Office on Friday after Royal Mail fail to deliver it.

Never an electronic item though, just the occasional case. They seem alright, plus you can get a free microfibre cloth if you use a certain voucher code (I forget what).
Ordered mine straight away, as the pre-orders I saw in The Netherlands were €300,- (Total Bull**** right?)
used your voucher, worked indeed.
Now time to wait. :victory:

Ordered yesterday at about 16:30 for delivery before 1pm today and here I sit...counting my steps and replying to texts cos there's not a lot else you can do with it yet......lol
MobileFun attach a letter to the box explaining that you shouldn't get it until the 7th because it won't be fully functional until then but they want you to have it early so you're ready to go etc.
Nice of them.
Cool! First impressions? Mine's showing as packing ready for despatch now.
how about ordering it for outside UK? are they trustworthy?
Ordered mine to. Mobilefun are trustworthy, often used by the guys at MoDaCo.
I used paypal and DPD next day, we will see what happens.
This was the email I got:
This email acknowledges the order you have placed online. We will email you again to confirm shipment when your order is processed, which will be within the next working day. Orders paid for before 6pm weekdays are shipped the same day providing the items are in stock.
Order Summary
Qty. Product Price Each
1 44653 LG G Watch for Android Smartphones - Black 159.00 GBP
Estimated despatch for the above products: Today, Wednesday 2nd July 2014
Shipping Method: DPD Next Working Day Parcel
Tracked service which is guaranteed to arrive the next working day (Monday to Friday) if ordered by 5 PM (not available to the Channel Islands)
Shipping Cost:6.99 GBP
Order total is 165.99 GBP, including 27.66 GBP VAT at 20%. A VAT invoice will be sent out with your order.
I have NO loyalty to Googles Play Store. Returning seems like a nightmare (many issues with my faulty N10) and the delivery charge is a rip-off.
And.... they're gone
Just checked the status of my order (placed 2nd July @ 09:40) and it's now changed from "queued for processing" to "Sorry, this item appears to be out of stock". Looks like they accept orders willy-nilly and not on quantity actually in stock at the time of ordering. I very cleverly cancelled my Play Store order already, so it's maybe someones way of telling me to wait for the 360
edit: product page says due back in stock in 2 days time.
Decided to cancel my order, and get it from Google Play instead.
First MobileFun weren't happy with my payment method (Mastercard); so I used PayPal instead.
Then their security team apparently weren't happy with my address I gave them; they said they tried to call me yesterday to confirm my address.
No missed calls, no voicemail.
Customer service asked if I wanted to verify my address...
By now, the watch is out of stock. Despite me ordering within minutes of them announcing it.
Not very impressed, and most likely won't order from them again. Not for electronics anyway.
^I hear you. I've just sent them my "thoughts" on the matter. That said, I've had a good few things from them in the past with now bother so I'm cutting them some slack. Their stock level calculations are obviously not to be trusted so I'll certainly think twice about ordering from them again.

Selling a device saying it will be dispatched immidiatly and then say "oh its out of stock". not too impressed with that.
(As a web developer, I also find it a weird way of doing it. A proper system would be a count behind the article and every time someone purchases it the count goes count -1. till the point it has to say its out of stock.)
Well pre-ordered from Coolblue (if you live in The Netherlands), Delivery date: 8 July

Just checked the status of my order (placed 2nd July @ 09:40) and it's now changed from "queued for processing" to "Sorry, this item appears to be out of stock". Looks like they accept orders willy-nilly and not on quantity actually in stock at the time of ordering. I very cleverly cancelled my Play Store order already, so it's maybe someones way of telling me to wait for the 360
edit: product page says due back in stock in 2 days time.

Really odd, ordered mine at 11:45 today and my status is packing ready for dispatch. Holding my breath now to see whether mine gets pulled. Maybe LG have leaned on them for delivering early.

That, or Mobile Fun have learned how to ship things on a first-come first-served basis just like the Play Store does [read: doesn't] /s
Enjoy your watch!

Thanks, I feel bad now, as though I'm taking your watch! Still not convinced they won't throw a spanner in the works though...

It's not your fault so don't you worry. It did lead me to just cancel the order completely and take my money (which they still have!) elsewhere. I'll not be ordering from them again!
Well, yep my order also went south. Made my feelings known to them as well.
I think I will wait until next week now, see the first full reviews, make a decision then.
No email from Best Buy regarding my G3 for Verizon. Supposed to be released today 7/17 but website now says Release Date: To be announced.
Called my local store and they have confirmed they do not have any g3s nor have any information on their arrival. I would just go to a Verizon store but I have a 50 dollar gift card that I can apply towards the G3!.
Post any information you may have collected or heard.

I didn't get an email today either but I went into Best Buy this afternoon anyways. I just handed the guy my pre-order paperwork and said "I'm here to pick up and activate my Verizon G3". The guy said "oh I think they're still in the back, they just came off the truck". Sure enough, he came back with it and I'm typing this on it now. I'm not sure if they weren't sopposed to give it to me or not but I figured I'd give it a shot. I still haven't gotten the email from Best Buy either. You might get lucky if you go in and just act like you got the email. Good luck!

Interesting. Maybe their just a little late getting to California stores....
The Best Buy stores in my area received them today (the 17th). We received the AT&T and Sprint ones a little ahead of the release but the Verizon ones we recieved day of. Give it a day or so and they will have them if they don't already. I don't know how the email system works, but it might indeed be worth it to walk in and ask.
Seems like the bigger city stores got them but not the smaller cities. I called my local store, Ames, IA and they said Des moines had some but theirs were still on order.
I got this email today:

Went to Verizon to pick it up instead and will cancel my BB order when it is available. I was disappointed. Did anyone get the $50 gc for new activation?

Interesting. It doesn't look like everyone has received these emails. When did you place your order? Mine was first thing in the morning on 7/11 and AFAIK they didn't have the pre-order available on 7/10 like VZW, so I'm fairly confident I'm one of the first folks that pre-ordered. A rep I spoke with did confirm that they're going to ship in the order in which the orders were placed, so maybe there's some sort of issue where they realized they don't have enough stock to cover all pre-orders and are send emails to folks who ordered after some cutoff time? Another possible thought might be that if you pre-ordered and had one of the expedited shipping options (i.e. your expected delivery was yesterday or today) and they knew they weren't going to meet the estimated time they sent the email?
All speculation of course hinging on my hope that I might see a new phone in the next 4 weeks.

I got the same e-mail yesterday and am very frustrated. I did my pre-order on the morning of 7/12. I'm debating if I should just walk into a store and see what happens....

Look like store availability is running on the site. Might what to check your location.
I think they are all screwed up over there. Has anyone tried to order and have the phone shipped to home? I keep getting that the shipping option is not available on the Verizon model. I went into the store yesterday and ask about Shipping and they said that this phone would have to be activated in the store.
Getting absolutely nowhere with BB support. Judging by the twitter conversation I had with them, it doesn't look like they've started shipping any devices at all, with no estimate on when they'll start.
Since we're all on here twiddling our thumbs until they give us something to chew on, anyone care to share when they pre-ordered and whether they've received a delay email?

You may want to check with your local Best Buy because I just checked a little bit ago on the website and it shows that my small local Best Buy has them now. It showed that they weren't available this morning.

Specifically had it shipped to avoid having a best buy employee activate the phone and kill my UDP.

Just received a call from a BB rep saying they won't be able to ship the LG G3 for "a couple of months."

HAHAHAHAHAHA! I'm not laughing at you, I'm laughing at Best Buy for thinking that's correct and laughing at that employee for having to make that phone call. They are just asking for it.
I just went into my local best buy and they didn't even know they had them in the storage shelves right behind them. I had to tell the guy the phone came out yesterday and then he checked for it. I didn't get to use the $50 upgrade promotion but they did let me use the $50 towards accessories like a screen protector, case, and audio aux cable. Loving the phone so far.
Had a pre order with Amazon.got an email this morning saying delay this delay that sorry wah wah. Cancelled order went on best buy website. Paid for replacement device(full price) got my your pickup is ready email. Typing from my amazing g3. Best buy chick was on top of it. Even have ne me the option for her to activate it or me at home. I said. Me (duh). Popped SIM in as soon as I was in the car. The rest is history. I did pay more at best buy but I call it a(I want my device now) fee.

We have Verizon LG G3 in Washington DC BBC ?
I am still waiting for my 10th Of July preorder from Verizon not BestBuy.
Amazon, UDP, $400 Activation Fee
Wonder if you go with Amazon and perform sim swap trick to maintain UDP, would you be hit with the $400 fee for not activating it Amazon's way? Given the delays with BB, I'm almost tempted to take a shot with Amazon but wouldn't necessarily want to get hit with an extra $400 for not following their directions. Any experiences buying phones off Amazon but maintaining UDP with sim trick?
Went to best buy and upgraded with Verizon edge and they gave me a 100$ gift card. They had a 24 inch 1080p TV for 120. So I got the TV for 30$ put the door ..glad I upgraded
