The information I have from Vodafone regarding my order is that it will ship on the 21st of September. I'm guessing it will take a couple of days to get here.
Did everyone who pre-ordered get the same shipping date, or are they going to stagger the deliveries? Post your shipping experience and expected delivery dates.
I have ordered direct from Samsung they said 21/09 to ship, hoping they ship early like US

That would be awesome but I doubt it will happen. If Vodafone and Samsung both have the same shipping date, it's likely that Samsung has instructed all carriers not to ship preorders until the 21st. Retailers like Kogan and Harvey Norman might not be under such a restriction. If anyone's ordered from a retailer, let us know your shipping date.
Vodafone sent me an SMS yesterday afternoon (14/9/17) saying that my order had progressed. When I clicked the order tracking link, their site said that it was being prepared for shipping.
I checked the order this morning and it says that it's being delivered. Should get a visit from Startrack with my Note 8 today! That's about a week earlier than expected! Nice work, Vodafone.

I received the same thing from vodafone. The first link takes me to the Vodafone website and shows "on it's way", but the actual consignment order on Startrack states an error with instructions to contact the service desk. Very unusual considering Vodafone told me they themselves would only receive the phone on the 21st of September.

Yeah, I got the same error when following the link to Startrack. Not sure what that's about but I assumed that might be due to the high volume of packages Vodafone must be sending out. If it doesn't arrive today, I'll update the thread.
Well, it's 4.45pm here and the phone still hasn't been delivered, so I'm guessing it's not coming until Monday. Bit disappointing as I was hoping to have the weekend to play with my new toy.
Even if it comes on Monday, that'll still be much earlier than I originally thought, so all good really.

The Startrack link now works and they estimate it will be delivered on the 21st. Seems like I got my hopes up for nothing and it won't actually be delivered early. Oh well.

It's worse than that. For my details on Startrack, it shows that the phone has already been picked up from Sydney and delivered to a local Depot only 20 minutes away from me. It seems they have orders to only deliver at a certain date (21st). It drives me up the wall that it will be just sitting on a shelf for four days at the depot until Thursday. Very frustrating.

I received an SMS from Startrack this morning saying that my phone will be delivered by COB today. The link still says the 21st for delivery but I'll keep you updated. If mine gets delivered today, yours might also find its way into your sweaty palm before you were expecting it.
My Note 8 just arrived!!!
Compared to my Note 3, this is one sexy device in the hand. Still setting up the account and sh*t so I can only comment on the physical attributes at this point.
If you're waiting for a Vodafone Note 8, it appears that they're not waiting until the 21st to send them out and the delivery estimates in both the Vodafone portal and Startrack can be disregarded as potentially inaccurate.
I got my note 8 from Vodafone delivered at 10.30 this morning by startrack.
Got mine at 4:30. I am a much happier man.

Hey guys, I got sucked in with the 6% cashback offer a few weeks back from Expansys, thinking that they would definitely be sending out the SGII on launch day, but at the moment they're saying that the phone 'should' arrive to them in ELEVEN days!
What a joke.
Anyone else going to cancel their Expansys order and go with Clove/Handtec?
It says 5 days here: http://www.expansys.com/samsung-i9100-galaxy-s-ii-16gb-209114/
I also got an email from expansys today that said they are shipping out the phones on tuesday (which incidentally is 5 days from now).
It does say 10 days in the order tracking tool for my order though, but that is because it's got the wrong product code in the order tracking (asked them about this in an e-mail a couple of days back).
May 2nd is also a bank holiday in the UK so that's probably why they are sending them out on the 3rd.
This is the e-mail I got:
Expansys said:
Dear Customer,
We are glad to announce that the first delivery of Samsung Galaxy S
II devices will be done next Tuesday.
Please have in mind that despite what has been first communicated,
Samsung informs that the Galaxy S II does NOT feature an NFC chip.
If further to this new information you wish to cancel or freeze your
order please contact us.
Kind Regards

I wouldn't read that much into it. Just like we got a "backordered" email, it just fills dates and stuff in. I'd expect it to ship by the 15th.

Yeah, the previous wording made me think we might get them earlier in the week, but now it looks like the 17th is as early as possible.
I guess its just one more reason to look forward to Friday
When i ordered mine today it said they should ship by the 16th.
Five minutes later i got an email saying it was sent to the warehouse for shipping.
I have a feeling some of us will be getting them early.

My order confirmation on the "5th" simply said your order will ship on Feb/16.
No "reminder" emails yet.
Assume it's 2-3 day fedex but don't really know.

I think we all got different notifications based upon the avenue in which we purchased or upgraded. I upgraded through Premier and I'm supposed to get my phone by the 17th and it is supposed to be shipped Fedex overnight. I don't think we can assume what AT&T will do until we start getting shipping notifications and tracking numbers.

Thank you for ordering from AT&T. Your device has been reserved and is expected to be delivered on February 17th. At AT&T, we promise to ship our products in the order in which requests are received*.
I ordered from a store on the 5th. I was the first (and probably only) person to order from them that day, considering people were preparing for the Superbowl. They had to dig around online for the model number. I assume they'll ship on Tuesday, to ensure that it gets to as many people as possible by Friday.

I ordered mine from ATT on Monday at lunch. They couldn't find it in system Sunday.
So, I went back Monday with the ATT SKU #. I told them to ship to store, 'cause I leave for Asia on the 18th and if it's not there by 17th my salesman said it would be held there under my name.
So, here's to hoping the "store" gets their shipments first, and mine gets thrown in with their stuff.
I go to Hong Kong and China regularly so I'm very familiar with the Int'l Note, but didn't want to spend 700+ for one in HK or China with no warranty except thru my friends there that I'd have to ship it back to for service.
Plus, getting it for 300 sans Exynos I figure is an even toss up for the cost savings.
Ive just got an email from Amazon.de saying my order placed at the beginning of this week has been delayed due to bottlenecks in production and may take a further one to two weeks to deliver!
Has anyone else got the same?
..and I should say I ordered white.
it could be that amazon has placed 2 orders with the manufacturer.
when i preordered mine on the 9th of may, it still says delivery on the 30th. i spoke on the phone with amazon.co.uk and they told me that they have delivery of an amount of handsets for the 29th and then a bigger delivery on the 6th of june. So i presume is whoever managed to order one early on gets it a bit sooner, and if the stock for delivery on the 30th is gone, then that is why your's might come a bit later.
Amazon.co.uk website is still offering preorders for delivery on the 30th of both blue and white.

I got a mail from Amazon today that the delivery COULD be delayed by 1 to 2 week.

i suppose that is from the german amazon.de? right?
actually here is a note from amazon.co.uk when you visit the page that sells the phone:
Note on Samsung Galaxy SIII Availability:
We have been made aware that there may be a slight delay in the arrival of some Samsung Galaxy SIII stock into the UK. We will keep you informed of any new information as soon as we receive it. All pre-orders will be fulfilled on a first-come first-served basis and we will not charge your credit card until we are ready to ship your order.
lets hope its delivered as expected!!!
I got an email May 10th saying mine will be delivered June, between 4 and 9, no more emails since
I pre-ordered the white one on May 12th on Amazon.de, and haven't gotten the email yet. Spoke with Amazon reps some of them said that this is a "technical error" (that I haven't received the email), others have said that it might be dispatched, but that they "don't want to make any false promises". My status page still says 30.5.
There already was a discussion on this topic in Galaxy S III Pricing, Availability and Pre Order Thread
There are quite a few in the amazon forum reporting that amazon told them upon request (like the chat) that there is a delay of one or two weeks and that the displayed delivery date of the order may not be correct.
I am one of those.
I have read at least one updating the shipping method to the fast one and this caused the delivery date to be updated to about two weeks later.
According to most personal of amazon.de this delay includes anyone who did a preorder.
We'll have to wait until next week to find out if this is true.
What a chaos!!!11Eleven
If I look at the amazon.de page at this moment, you can order the blue and white version for 621,- € with delivery at 31.5

Yes, but this one is not sold by Amazon directly, but by Notebook.de. Amazon still sells at 587 EUR with 1-3 weeks delay.
Does anyone know where I could buy the phone locally in Austria (Vienna)? Saturn doesn't have it on the website, neither does MediaMarkt.
Nope.
It looks like the delay is not restricted to amazon but most or all vendors.
I don't think you'll get lucky with a normal vendor.
Don't expect saturn or mediamarkt to have them any time soon, the austrian ones are always slow on picking up new stuff compared to the german ones.
Maybe there is more luck with a mobile operator, but I did not check on this since I am not interested in buying it with a contract and have it sim-locked (if you are willing, then the offer from orange.at might be a good one).
But hey, it's 'just' supposted to be one or two weeks.
Drink tea, relax and wait (yea I know, it's hard, i'm just trying on that myself)

Yeah I figured I'll tour Orange, T-Mobile, and Drei tomorrow and see if I could get one without contract, though I doubt it. Still waiting for news from Amazon about the definite delay...
I'm gonna wait until the madness does down and stock aplenty so i can get one within a week
Just got another email, delayed to 19 - 26 June
I also got an email from Amazon.de today. I pre-ordered a pebble blue S3 on the 15th of May. It now says that it will be delivered from June, 14th to June, 15th.
So that's another 2 weeks of waiting.
Same here. This is a bit frustrating. Samsung should've addressed this problem earlier, how could they let this slip? After all, this is one of the most anticipated phones of the year.
Well, UK and US do, so why not us. First off, I hate not being in US/Canada/UK with their fancy "1-day delivery" option. I tried ordering from "mobilefun" India (they have a 2-day shipping option), but they just re-credited my money with a TOTALLY NOT vague: "We could not go through with your order due to `security reasons'". So I just resigned to doing it from play store, shipping 09/Jul...looks like I'll only get it late next week .
Anyone else ordering this? Did you have success from NON play-store places, or somewhere with a 2-day type option? I've never ordered from play-store in India before...how fast does the shipping REALLY take usually (I live in Bangalore).
And of course: OH GOD I CAN'T WAIT..AAAHHHH
Note: IN stands for India...
I have ordered through play store..

Google and LG seems to have goofed up a lot with G Watch stock and shipment specially for india customers, I ordered few days back when it was showing as In Stock, then they gave 9th as dispactch date now when I called customer servoce theu had no clue then they emailed me that stock delays etc non sense and they dont know when it will be shipped
its a very unprofessional behaviour by google and LG for indian customers, how come an order placed while In Stock is not processed , ridiculous

SAME HERE. Though for me it showed as "shipping in 1-2 bussiness days" by the time I paid for it, so that was OK. It's half way through the day and still I don't have any shipping details.
On the plus side: the dude said it ships from Mumbai, if he ships by tonight using Bluedart or something I MAY get it before the weekend, or on Saturday.
On the minus side: No way the above is happening.
The *only* way to know what is going on right now is to collect info from people for whom it showed "shipping by 8th" have THEY gotten their shipped confirmation yet? I'm going to assume ours will ship 1 day after whenever theirs shipped. So please, anyone know anyone who has 8th as shipby date?

Yeap, that's what I thought. The dude on the other end of the indian play store help phone number said mumbai though. He said the devices are shipped (I assume in bulk) to the mumbai ship center at which point it ships from there to customers. The "ship by" date denotes "individual customer"s ship, meaning it is supposed to leave MUMBAI at that time. Which makes sense, to get all the customs out of the way prior to customer interaction.

They said they are having customs issues getting the watch into the country (AFTER which it is shipped to individual costumers from the warehouse/shipping center in Mumbai). So...it is delayed indefinitely. Since this is India, I am going to say no one here is getting their hands on that watch till late august or early september.

Hi guys, I pre-ordered my Asus Rog phone in mid November from the official UK Asus website to take advantage of the £100 off bonus.
As of Friday 14th of December, the phone is in stock and at full retail price of £799.
But as of yet I've not received any dispatch info from Asus.
I was wondering if any other of my UK brethren are in the same boat as me and had preordered and awaiting/ recieved dispatch information?
