Just ordered my Thunderbolt last night on Amazon to take advantage of the $179 price. According to the site its on backorder right now. Anyone else order from Amazon and still waiting? Also, who here has ordered a phone from Amazon and its on backorder? Did you have to wait the full 8-9 days as it says? Man, i can not wait to get my hands on this device!! Hope you all are enjoying yours as we speak!
Not amazon, but I ordered from Verizon and it's been literally within an hour of me since it shipped Friday with no signs of moving according to the fedex tracking....

Hate it when that happens. Happened before with an older phone. Hope you get it soon!
I ordered on Amazon on Sunday (I think) - said 8-9 days, expect it March 31st.
Today I got notification it shipped, and is expected to be delivered tomorrow (despite 2 day shipping, since it's coming from NJ -> NY, it will arrive in 1 day).

Same here! Has been sitting at the sort facility about an hour from my location, all day long. Should be here tomorrow according to tracking though.
Still Waiting
I ordered mine on Sunday too, my update status has not changed, still waiting to see the word "shipped".
Mine says should receive 3/31 or 4/1

must be frustrating. they are offering free 3pm overnight shipping right now too. maybe you could call and have it resent via that for delivery tomorrow?
Amazon overshoots their delivery times, never had to wait as long as they estimated for anything I've ordered there, including phones.

In the store price was $10 more than online and I got a case for half off.

Glad you talked em into it. I tried this on Sunday afternoon. VZW and Best Buy both refused to match it. I said "No Problem" and ordered online. Hopefully they will give me an update soon.
I purchased my TB on 3/18 and amazon sd it was backordered. got "Shipped" confirmation saturday 3/19 at noon and was in my hands monday 3/21 around 3pm. Came from Louisville, Ky and shipped to TN. I had to wait 24 hours for Sprint to release my number. All I can say is Amazon Wireless rocks!!

On bright note for everyone whos ordered. The Thunderbolts are back in stock and as of late last night my order was packed and ready to be shipped. According to Amazon, i should have it tomorrow.
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

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...
I know a lot of you are gonna be PO'd at another best buy thread but from everything i read everyone is just speculating that the champagne hasn't shipped through them at least that hows it seams cuz i haven't heard of a single one comming out of BB. So this thread is to make sure of it and find out who ordered what day they ordered what their status is showing charge card info blah blah blah Also for all of us waiting it would be nice to share any info you get for those of us waiting on the champ. from BB!
Ordered on 11/27. Chase C.C. been auth twice but currently no charge. 1st screen shows "In Process" 2nd says 1 item(s) on back order. Standard Ground.
was told countless times i would receive by the 23rd also if they received a shipment i would get free 2nd day shipping to get b4 xmas ANY FEEDBACK WELCOME!
I pre-ordered a 32GB champagne on 11/23. From what I have seen not a single champagne has shipped from Best Buy. Meanwhile, Amazon has shipped mostly champagne. My screens are the same. My credit card doesn't show the pre-auth's but I assume they've run it multiple times. I was told many times that it would (1st) be delivered on 12/19 and (2nd) before Christmas. I think it is safe to assume Best Buy hasn't shipped any champagne as I pre-ordered early on 11/23.
I ordered on 11/22 same back order status standard shipping and I haven't gotten a single piece of usable information from my multiple attempts at calling..used a BB credit card and the charge is not on my balance but it had been taken from my available credit

11/25 w/ free shipping. card (debit) has been charged 4 times, including right now (seems to stay in "pending" for 3 or 4 days before dropping off).
i was told on the 5th (when I called after the 2nd "hold" was placed on my card) that it happened b/c the item was shipping. on the 14th (3rd charge) I was told to cancel, b/c bb doesn't sell the champagne one (I told her not to touch my order, that I didn't trust anything they were saying).
if I can find this thing anywhere else, I'll get it.
Pre-ordered 11/23
Status on first screen says "in process" 2nd screen says "backordered"
Paid with paypal and they have my money from day 1....
Free shipping was offered at the time....
Well I guess I'm gonna call again this morning I can't believe they told u bestlie isn't selling the champagne if this is true I won't really be surprised. I tried switching to gray yesterday and the rep told me it wouldn't matter lol if anyone gets any info please share. Let u guys know if I find out any new info on my call.

Pre-ordered 12/1 32GB and dock. Status on first screen says "in process" 2nd screen says "back-ordered" for both. I also paid with PayPal and they have had my money since day 1 too!!!
32GB Champagne Prime
Ordered 12/2 after the great Amazon Debacle. Went from processing to backordered a few days ago.
I ordered the 32GB Champagne and dock on 11/22 via paypal - The money was taken out of my paypal account on 11/25! I recieved the back-ordered email and when I complained to the CSR that people who preordered later than me had recieved tracking numbers, she couldn't explain it. I guess they really don't have the Champagne in stock as the other thread doesn't have a single Champagne owner mentioning a shipped email.
I knew I ordered the wrong color!!!
Yeah and I only ordered champ because seemed everyone with a gray from amazon was getting cancled thought I would have a better chance boy was I wrong. I haven't called yet today I'm going to in a few minutes then will post
Sent from my PG86100 using Tapatalk
I ordered the tablet on 11/22 and the dock on 11/23; both with same status now as "backordered"; I received emails for both regarding the backorder; called BB yesterday and they just send me one email for each item stating "extended backordered" for 30 days; after 30 days order will be cancelled!
4 times pre auth on my Citi card; problem is that Citi holds precharges for 30 days!
BB CSR told me when she extended the backorder status that the system was showing date of receipt BETWEEN 19-23; so, two more days and we'll be there to see our hopes vanish.
Nothing changed on my call today just told for a 2nd time when it comes off back order I get free upgraded shipping. At least the lady I talked to today tried after being on hold twice and disconnected she called back to tell me should could not get any more info

In the same boat as everyone else. Ordered two 32GB Champagnes and one dock on 11/23 from BB and anxiously watching for word that they're shipping Champagnes. Called Best Buy on Monday and was told 10 days by CSR, but I think he was just splitting the difference on the 1-2 week timeframe in the email. Thanks for starting this thread.
Ordered on 11/29 (both the dock and the tablet)
Both have shown back-ordered status since 12/18
I emailed them on 12/18 asking what was going on and they emailed me back later in the day and basically just confirmed that they are on back-order and didn't have any additional information.
I haven't received any additional communication from BB regarding the issue. I also did not receive the auto-generated email indicating that the item is on a 1-2 week back order that others have received.
Ordered on 11/23 (both the dock and the tablet) Money has been deducted from my Chase debit card already. Got an email saying both items have been back-ordered, I keep calling them, believe it or not, they are hanging up on me now(twice yesterday). this is totally bizarre.
Ordered on 11/23, and got a back order e-mail on 12/19. It's listed as back ordered now, with an estimate of 1-2 weeks.

Ordered champagne 32GB on 12/4. Backordered email came same time as everyone 12/18 midnight, with a delay of 1-2 weeks. 2 weeks hits January, and I expect another week of delay then, then ship time. Should have it from BB mid Jan, unless I change my mind about the whole thing.
Ordered 12/2 after the Amazon fiasco.
No information since the email stating it was backordered.

Orders are shipped within two business days of placing your order, and will be delivered upon two additional business days of processing.
According to our records, your order should ship by the evening of November 15.
Upon receiving your shipping confirmation email, you'll be given a tracking number that will assist you in determining your package's estimated delivery date. Please note that it might take up to 24 hours before the tracking number returns any information.
Still no word today, so I inquired again, and got this response:
Thank you for contacting Google about the status of your order. At this time, I show that your order is pending and should update the shipping information soon. Generally it takes about 2-3 business days to update shipping info and an additional 2 business days for shipping.
I called in, and the representative blamed Nexus 4 sales for my slow order. What is going on? People have already received their tablets.. Is anyone else in this boat? I've never paid 15 bucks to ship anything before, and for such slow response it's really aggravating.
Anyone sharing my frustration?
32 gb placed in what may have been the first minute and nothing. Marked as complete yesterday but no tracking number. Can't cancel as they won't let me because.... Wait for it.... Drumroll...

Consider yourself lucky, mine still shows "pending". yeah, I don't know why they can't ship it to retail. My worst fear is that it's going to take a week and a half to get here, have horrible light bleed, and i'll have to send it back >_< If I could buy it at walmart, I would have it by now, and if it were defective I could take it back and swap it at will. Also, 15 dollars for shipping? And tax? There's no advantage to this online nonsense, only pitfalls.

I ordered at around noon.

I ordered on 9/30 32gb graphite. When I ordered it said shipping late October. Though both times I live chatted with reps I got different answers. One said they were shipping the same time as Google, and the other said first week of November. I'm combining the two answers and going with any day now lol
Ordered 10/15 (a bit late to the party). 64GB Graphite. "Early November" ship date. I am dying waiting. I also need to pick up a case and screen protector...
I ordered 32gb aluminium on the 29th. Hoping I get some shipping info by Monday. I should be in first batch that goes out when Google starts shipping...which seems to be now

I orders 64GB graphite on 10/19. No shipping info other than early Nov.
I ordered on Oct.1, 2015 using affirm. It has been processing every since. Went to affirm website. They want their first payment even if the phone is still processing I guess. Google was just sold out and I was glad to save on the tax. I will just pay it all out and avoid the interest if I like it and decide to keep it.
I ordered on 9/30 the 64 GB Graphite version right before I canceled my 32 GB Graphite version on Google. It still says Processing but my AMEX has already been charged.
Ordered on 9/30, 32gb aluminum. Talked to representative who said early November or might be late October. He wasn't sure.
I was told early on that they would ship at the same time as Google and have a different batch than Google's. So I assume that when people from Google orders that ordered around the same time frame as you (I ordered on 9/29), then that's when you will get a shipping email. People who have already had theirs shipped are the ones who ordered within seconds of it going live on google and most people didn't order from huawei till the 29th since we didn't even know they would sell direct. I'd estimate them to ship out sometime next week for those who ordered when it said late October.
I ordered an Aluminum 64GB on 10/19. I was very late preordering. I tried to order late night of 10/16 but they were out of 64GB, then they put some back on 10/19 but I was able to get 1 before sold out of 64GB again with in a few hours.
Even though I preordered pretty late when I did order it still said Early November. So I'm guessing mine will be shipped mid or late 1st November week. But who knows maybe myself and us in this thread will be surprised early. After all its pretty clear much less ordered from Hauwei, therefore a lot less volume of product for them to ship. Meaning takes less time. That's what I'm hoping for.
Ordered 10/18 64GB Graphite - Early November ship date.
Typically 'early' means before the 14th.
Let's hope it's before that. I read somewhere (lost track where) that they'll be shipping between the 4th and 11th.
Also there's this: https://plus.google.com/+TaylorWimberly/posts/4hasXnK3XDA
(Taylor Wimberly works at Huawei and said that they'll be shipping 'soonish')
64GB aluminum ordered on the 15th. The website says if you try to buy one now, regardless of size or color it says shipping 'late november'
32gb alum 9/30 early November

Well my case on Amazon isn't in stock until the 5th. So guessing they are going to ship the phone on the.... 2nd. And hopefully from somewhere local. I love in Missouri.
I ordered my 64GB Graphite through Huawei and I have no received no further communication. Not even an order confirmation email. I checked my spam folder and there is nothing there either. They have, however, charged my AMEX on Oct 11.
I guess I should call them?
Also. Useful info I was mad about at first. To track your order status from gethuawei.com you must be on the desktop view. Scroll all the way down to "track order" under "account"
Yeah. Call em. Pretty sure they shut their live chat down. Tried 2 days in a row and said they had high volume, try again later or leave a message.

I'm same as you, but ordered 64gb graphite on 10/20. Credit card was charged 2 days after. Web site indicated shipping early November. Still says processing. With the free shipping Huawei provides, I'm not expecting the phone until at least mid November.
I did order the Google Nexus case from the Google Store yesterday and it shipped last night lol
I order mine on the 29th using affirm I still haven't received a email on shipping date
Believe it or not, while it hasn't shipped, it let me place an order for the 64GB in Aluminum. This was at 8pm last night. The night before, the phone was out of stock on both there, & Google.
