They only price match a handful of competitors and MicroCenter's not one of them.
Mine will be here on the 25th and my unknown serial turd will go back to BB today.
Thanks brodie

They actually don't have them "In stock" but are selling them as direct ship from Asus. Expect it to take about a week to get to you depending on your location.

Now that my g/f has bought one from the link, I now feel safe to post it on here. Didn't want you guys to to buy all of it before she gets a chance to get one.

cheapest price I've seen in weeks.
The site has a very mixed review for service:
http://www.resellerratings.com/store/CometSupply
If you order now you get the following message:
0 in stock. If you buy 1 of this item now, your purchase will be on back order. Special orders may ship in 1 to 3 weeks or as much as 6 to 8 weeks for custom manufacturered items. Large quantity orders may ship sooner by direct shipment from the factory.
have you received the dock yet? How long was shipping? I saw their site through Google shopping a while back but didn't want to buy one because of the "special order" indicator. I assume they're drop shipping from the manufacturer so 6-8 weeks sounds about right.
Stock: None.
Special Order.
Looks like a fake listing to attract ppl
Fellow Canadians!
Other than best buy, futureshop and Staples, are there any other pre order sites?
I have a champagne transformer pre ordered from staples, as they were the only local retailer that had that color code for pre-order, however I noticed that they have pulled that sku from their website entirely. Not sure what that means but when I called Staples to find out they said that it was a possibility that only a certain number of that color code were available.
I did ask about estimated shipping and the rep had told me it is still slated of the week of Dec 12. So hopefully everything goes through without a hitch.
Has anyone else had this issue at all?
The only two other two places I know you can preorder is ncix.com and memoryexpress.com. Both of those places have the champagne version as well which is why I ordered mine from memory express.
I am just hoping mine gets in before the 21st because I ordered mine in calgary and won't be flying there until the 21st (figured I would save some taxes and not ruin my finals studying with a new toy!).
My last email from Best Buy Canada said the release date was Dec 5, but other than that, no word. I wonder if we are really getting it early here in Canada vs. the US.
Is it just me or are there NO 64gb pre-orders anywhere in Canada? Best Buy, Future Shop, Staples, ect. No one has a 64gb up for pre-order! I'd rather pick it up than get it shipped, btw.

Memory express and NCIX have 64gig versions. Although the fact those other big guys don't have it doesn't leave me with confidence that those two will actually be getting them at the same time as the 32gig versions. I am even a bit scared my champagne unit will be late as well since its just those 2 that have it.
Memory Express had 64GB TFs available for preorder in both grey and gold, last time I checked.

Would have like to have ordered from Futureshop but they don't deliver in Quebec because of language laws so I ordered from NCIX. I ordered the original TF from them and got it the second week it came out. Another bonus is I only pay GST and shipping is fairly reasonable. I also ordered from Amazon.ca but I have a feeling I wont get it this month. I'll be canceling the other order once the first one comes in.
Sorry if this is already known but I just got a call from MemoryExpress in Edmonton, AB to change my pre-order because they claim to have received an e-mail from ASUS Canada stating that the only model available in Canada will be the 32GB Amethyst Gray. I asked for confirmation that that would mean NO 64GB and NO gold colour whatsoever and the sales associate said that is what the e-mail said. I asked about any release date info and they said the tablet would arrive in "the next couple weeks" but the dock would be "3-4 weeks away." Take that with a grain of salt though as I don't believe the release date info came directly from ASUS.

dang. I emailed them to ask about it and they emailed back saying they have some info and if I could call them which I figure is bad news. I had an order for champagne gold and mentioned in this thread how I was worried it wouldn't be coming. I gave them my number so we will see if they call me and what they say.
I just pre ordered mine from Amazon.ca says Dec 16th
Well memory express called and said that the only unit they will be getting in is the 32gig grey and the dock. Said that asus said they guess that the champagne gold version will be released sometime in February. Pretty disappointed as I was really starting to like the look of the gold! Ah well as long as they actually get them in around christmas!
Appreciated that they took the time to call me about the order though, the guy at memory express was nice and explained how pissed they were at asus.
I just did NCIX in Vancouver.. no date.. but better then Amazon.ca dating it AFTER jan 31st...
BestBuy Canada Release Date
BB Canada is showing my pre-order with a December 22nd release date.
Asus 10.1" 32GB Eee Pad Transformer Prime Tablet With Wi-Fi
Item Status: Pre-Order
Release Date: 12/22/2011
In the GTA here... Online shows bestbuy, staples and even futureshop not having any stock!
First off I really would have liked to buy it in store instead of online. Do you think there is a chance that any store would have this available before Xmas (in store that is)?
"So what you want me do 'bout that?"
Yeah mine is all over the place too:
Shipment 1
Scheduled forGround Delivery
Estimated Arrival: 11/26-12/09/2011
Asus 10.1" 32GB Eee Pad Transformer Prime Tablet With Wi-Fi
Item Status: Pre-Order
Release Date: 12/22/2011
Weird.. who knows.. I lost my amazon order so I just would like to get one. haha
Anyone know when it will be available in stores?
December or January stick with thos months and you will be fine
No 64GB... This just sucks. No wonder Best Buy wasn't getting back to me on when they'd be getting that model. REALLY disappointed.
My future shop order has changed from release date on the 5th of December to the 22nd of December today. Was anyone else able to choose any other shipping method other than regular old ground? doesn't look too promising to get it before christmas.
I've been doing some searching on through BestBuy and apparently there are many transformer prime's that are available at stores for pick up but, however, are many hundreds or thousands of miles away.
However, if you go to your local BBuy and let them know, they can have the item shipped from one store to the next. For example, a store in Aurora, IL (those mini-BestBuy stores) had 3 TFPs waiting, if you go to your local BestBuy store (I live in Bloomington), have them talk to each other, they can ship it down -- no problem, no extra cost.
But this isn't the real reason for my post. I found out that the Mid-West (Illinois/Missouri) warehouse in St. Louis, MO has 384 transformer primes waiting. I placed an order and will receive mine in less than 6 days (ordered January 20th, will pickup on January 27th).
If you go to your local bestbuy, ask them to check the warehouses and make a preorder if they have them. Then, the warehouse will ship it. It definitely beats waiting online.
Now you can order online at Office Depot, but if you're like me, and you have a bunch of BBuy gift cards, you can do it the way I stated above.

Or tell the local bestbuy that you wanna place and "OMS order" and tell them the sku of the item. They can have the warehouse deliver the prime to the store for pick up or get it shipped to your house.
I am looking to buy a Nexus 9 in a store on Monday after my Amazon Order got pushed back to December.
Anyone has an idea whether the likes of Argos, John Lewis, Currys/PC World will stock and sell the N9 on the 3rd November?
I thought amazon had revised their shipping dates again, to be delivered in november...

Have emailed all of the above, all I get in response is just keep checking the site's often or on release date, poor I know! Good luck hunting.
Let us know if you find anything, I haven't found anywhere that says they will, but there's always hope!
Argos have it listed but it seems it's only for delivery and it looks like the earliest delivery date is Thursday.
Same here - Amazon order delivery bounced to 20 December last night (Following an up date on Saturday that it was coming on the 4th November).
So ordered from Argos - Selected black and now have a confirmed date of tomorrow delivery - 3.95 shipping, however a £10 voucher .
I just tried to order one from Argos (32Gb White) and it showed out of stock at my local warehouse!
Tried to order from Argos this morning, got an email from PayPal to say payment had failed :/ tried again and PayPal payment is now pending but I've got no confirmation from Argos...
In store Argos told me they don't have any planned deliveries to my local store for the N9.
Currys, ever the sales people, evaded all I asked. Will try to pop down just before closing to find out if they've had any delivered.
I'm working tomorrow (Currys). We get delivery on Tuesdays. I'll check the Nexus 9 status for you guys

Well its now listed on Currys/PC World. Strangely they do not have 32gb in Black, just White 16/32gb and Black 16gb.
Currently use the code IPADTAB20 to take £20 off.
Just went through to see if you can collect tomorrow but the earliest you can select is Weds.
Just checked, it's not available in any stores to pick up / check out at the moment. But Currys/PC World have around 200 of each model in the main depo. Which means they should be coming into stores soon. Next delivery is on Thursday (hope it comes in!).
John Lewis has it too
http://www.johnlewis.com/search?Ntt=nexus+9&Nty=1&_requestid=18887898
If anyone wants to have a look. It's available to view and play about with in the Leyton and Enfield Currys/PC WORLD stores. Just went and fiddled about with it, wasn't that impressed

Quick update: Nexus 9 16GB has just gone down to £299 in Currys / PC World.

Just wondering how wide spread sales are for this phone? Is it available throughout the world?
The phone is available for sale here in the UK but there virtually no accessories for it yet. If that many had been sold wouldn't there already be cases and screen protectors available?
In the US it's being sold by Amazon and Bestbuy. It's not actually out in the US yet. I have one on pre-order from Amazon and just got an email giving me a delivery date of the end of October.
Amazon is now showing a Nokia branded case but shows a one to three month lead time. I'm keeping an eye on that as that may change once the phone is officially released. The only other cases I've seen are cheap and probably crap. I'm hoping a name brand case manufacturer releases something soon.
Best Buy in the US is showing as a non-preorder with delivery on 10/31 now. Stores won't get any until 11/4 and then only the blue version (when I want steel, of course). B&H is showing stock for the blue (steel still on pre-order), Amazon still no stock.

Amazon must have had some stock because mine has been shipped and is being delivered today. They must have used up all of their available stock on preorders. When I checked Amazon this morning it did say out of stock and now says "Available from these sellers. The link points to two third-party retailers.
Still no luck with cases though.

Did you get the blue? At one point they had the blue and steel up for pre-order but the steel went away for some reason. You'll have to let us know what you think of it!

Yes I did get the Blue. I should have it in a couple of hours or so as that's when the UPS guy normally comes through here.
I'll post back later today.
You can get it on B&H for free expedited delivery or earliest Bestbuy can ship to store is tuesday.
