Anyone still waiting on a WiFi-only B&H pre-order? - Xoom General

As the thread title indicates, I want to find out who (else) is waiting on a pre-ordered WiFi-only model from B&H.

I ordered one on Monday this week after they had stock (ie. No preorder), and it shipped that day and I have it in my hands as of now (Australia).

Holy balls I wish I'd done that rather than pre-order from Dixons UK. Prob won't get mine for another 10-14 days...!

B&H possibly not having supply was what concerned me. When they list their pre-order option I immediately signed up. But the next day when the release from Motorola came out, they didn't list B&H selling the Xoom. That scared me. When I saw Amazon on there.. with free shipping and 'cancel anytime' and we won't charge you until it ships.. I decided to cancel my B&H order and go with Amazon. I'm sorry you still don't have it. My thoughts would be to cancel your order and go through Amazon or somewhere else. B&H cancelled my order the next day after requesting (I cancelled it that night).. so really next business day. They are good about that. I believe other places have it in stock. These are too much fun to be waiting for someone to get in their own stock!

Pre-ordered on 15 march and I received yesterday.
With a little delayed because the accessories are not in stock so I spoke with an agent on the Live Chat and he send my Xoom tuesday. The accessories will be sent later by USPS.

Ordered on sunday (27.03) and i`m typing this message on my new xoom

Thank you, everyone for your responses!
Galactic, I am guessing that what happened to yours is happening to mine. I pre-ordered the silicone gel case and desktop dock along with the XOOM. Were your accessories either of those, by any chance?

I pre-ordered the Portfolio case and car charger but both are in backordered..
Just tell to B&H on the Live Chat than you want the Xoom NOW

Has anyone received their Lapdock from Motorola?

Has anyone that ordered from the Moto Store received their lapdock? I've called numerous times to Motorola Store to place an order and they keep telling me that either its not available or that they don't sell it without the phone. Those people are EXTREMELY rude.
i paid for my laptop dock on Wednesday last week, paid for overnight shipping. Still hasn't shipped. Price has dropped $50 since my order was placed. I emailed them and called them 3 times asking when it would ship or if I could at least get a $50 partial refund. Really ticking me off.

Yep. Exactly as I expected. This is gonna go bad fast. :/
mine is shipping today, arrives tomorrow.
What's really interesting is the fact that it went up back to $399 earlier today and if you check now, it's back up to $499. I placed my order last Weds as well and still am waiting for a tracking number.

Damn it. I was thinking about ordering for $369, but for $499... that is just too expensive.
Still gonna wait for the price to drop again, no point wasting money on something that is going to go down in price anyway as nobody buys it
when I went to the ATT store on the 13th to preorder my phone, the guy screwed up and pre-ordered the laptop dock instead. I didn't notice this until the 18th. i then went back up there to order the phone correctly. I couldn't cancel the laptop order because it went for packaging/shipping that day.
Anyway, long story short, I got both the laptop and phone on the 21st. Played with laptop for all of 5 minutes and immediately returned to my local ATT store. It's a $500 web browser. A slow & laggy one at that. Just my opinion.
Has anyone received a tracking number from Motorola? I keep getting the run around from them on my order placed last week... Not happy.
OT:
I've had the laptop dock since tuesday of last week... IMO if you get the package deal it's a SICK deal, I haven't picked up my $1000 Laptop ONCE since I got this thing... and I don't even have citrix at work.
I'm using logmein and it's SICK.
With the MIR it's 200 for the phone 200 for the dock... that's an awesome deal imo.
No idea on direct orders from Moto.
1.2.3.gone
The lapdock has disappeared from Moto's online store. Strange.
A supervisor told me they were flooded with orders and shipping has been delayed... I find that hard to believe but this is not cool.

Galaxy Tab 10.1 on Amazon....

For those of you who ordered their Tab on Amazon:
-is there a choice to choose the Gray or White version?
-what's the warranty / return policy?
-any taxes in NY?
I am still undecided between Wi-fi and LTE but I can't wait anymore and I might just pull the plug an order the 32 GB Gray....
All the online retailers appear to only offer the gray version. So I suspect the white one might be a Best Buy exclusive maybe?

Only choice was Grey
From what I read the return policy on tablets is 30 days from the date of delivery and they will give you a prepaid return label
No taxes here in Texas, not sure about NY
Amazon does collect taxes for NY.

I ordered the 32G this morning
and there are no choice of color except the black or grey for 32G. And I just confirmed with them on the phone only have Grey.
My shipping est is on the June 20th and I asked for 1 day shipping. The CSR told me they are shipping on June 17th, so I might get it on June 18th Saturday.

Don't sweat it, bro. The name of the game is wireless tethering via my trusty rooted Evo 4G.

Ditto on Evo tethering! I'm hoping amazon comes through and ships Friday, with 1 day it should arrive Saturday.
I notice TigerDirect's website is saying "Order today, ships today" as the status for these, so maybe they have jumped the gun, but I decided to stick with amazon anyway.

Usually Overnight shipment with Saturday delivery is much more expensive so I don't think you will receive it then.
On the order confirmation, however, it indeed says they will ship on Friday (I have 2 day delivery and it says it will get here by Tue...)
I just can't wait any longer...
I got the White 16GB SGT 10.1 from best buy on June 8th. Thats all they had. The white is a best buy exclusive.
Also, wifi doesn't work without root and messing with some files as the stock filters ad hoc connections.
I have ordered several things lately from Amazon with 1 day and had them arrive on Saturday - not sure if that's something cool Amazon is doing or if the carriers (usually UPS or Fedex) are doing, but I hope it continues for at least one more time! Anyway, mine is still showing June 20 delivery estimate.
Ordered my 32GB version several days ago on Amazon ... like everyone else, hoping that they ship it for a Friday or Saturday delivery (w/ one day shipping).
Fedex Home Delivery delivers Tuesday-Saturday. Sometimes Fedex Ground packages are delivered by Fedex Home, so you will occasionally get those on Saturday as well.
Like the rest of you I opted for one day delivery expecting to receive my Galaxy Tab bright and early Saturday morning. I will be a bit upset if they don't deliver until Monday - I'll (probably, depending on the carrier and which way the wind is blowing) miss the delivery due to work and not be able to pick up my tab until Tuesday after work. Kind of defeats the point in shelling out for one day delivery, eh? One day shipping is almost as much as local sales tax, and I could pick one up from Best Buy Friday night in that case!
I don't see any indication on my invoice as to which carrier/method my package will be shipped with. Crossing my fingers.
Well I dont want to kill any hope of this thing arriving on Saturday but I spoke to an Amazon rep about it and here is what he told me:
"Apart from the standard shipping benefits of Free Two-Day shipping and One-Day shipping for $3.99 per item, Saturday Delivery is also available for eligible purchases.
The Saturday delivery option for Amazon Prime members is only offered for eligible items shipping to select ZIP codes within the continental United States. If an item and shipping address qualify for Saturday delivery, you'll see that option on the item detail page or in the shopping cart during checkout."
So unless after you chose 1 -day and then it asked if you would like Saturday....
i work at a bookstore and we often have to do special orders from Amazon. When we do them on Friday and pay for one-day, they ALWAYS come on Saturday. Just a heads up!

I've had Sat delivery from Amazon and was never given an option, it just showed up on Sat. The only Sat delivery has been by Fedex Home Delivery or USPS, never by UPS or "regular" Fedex. I am a Prime member.

Where are people in the United States ordering the phone from?

I see a lot of people in the UK ordering the Note from the german amazon site, what places are people in the United States ordering the phone from and for what price? I wanted the nexus prime but this looks like it may be an overall better device, not to mention its available now and has a sd card slot which I wanted.
Negri Electronics, ~$800 US with 2nd day shipping and $35 off promo cert.
I initially wanted a prime too, but it was more for the hardware than the software (which the Note will get eventually), and the note's got better goods.
I'm always wary of ordering from Negri, plemix..etc. I just wait for it to get to Amazon.com or Newegg.com at least they have return policies on the devices. If you order from one of those NY web retailers your pretty much SOL on returns.
looks like its on backorder on negri, I thought I saw people paying $700 for the phone? I would love for it to show up on amazon.com
Handtec, paid $723, they shipped it overnight

Negri has a return policy right on their website...

I love Negri...bought 3 high end phones from them over the last 3 years. Not a single problem with returns, etc. Sorry I waited a day late to get my order in.
I found 2 places locally (Chicago area) who "said" they are getting them by Friday...we'll see!
I just bought through handtec @ $776 Canadian. US and Canadian dollars are pretty close right now, might be like $769 USD. 2-4 day shipping with Fedex to North America. They are getting more stock and shipping Friday the 4th, apparently.
Unlocked Mobiles.com
I just ordered mine last Friday, Oct 28th from Unlocked Mobiles.com and they shipped the same day. Total Cost £504.15 = $807.72! Very good about tracking and notification. Tracking shows my phone in New York, I should have it by Friday this week!
I ordered from Negri on Monday, its suppose to be in texas tomorrow. But the guy stated it was shipped Tuesday but did not have tracking number. But I kept asking and it looks like he was on back order but shipped today for tomorrow delivery. Even though I paid for 2 day delivery so he kept to his promise of the date for delivery.
Spent more than I wanted but thats fine if shows up. I had previously ordered with Expansys and they played a lot of games with my order so I canceled with them and went to Negri. But I just got an email from Expansys stating they have them in stock ready to ship. But somehow I do not believe them. There were others that received units from them. Use at your own risk.
Negri seems to be on the up and up, As well it seems there is one person that I kept dealing with on chat and email. So it might be a single guy running the site. So far he has kept to his promise and that means a lot when trusting a unknown website.

They have return policies, that said I've never used them before, so I've never had to return anything to them. Generally I'd agree with you, the big web stores feel better, but lots of people here have used negri before with positive feedback.

Yes, tracking has been given to people who preordered in the first wave of available devices. I'm due to receive it tomorrow according to UPS 2nd day air.

I have had three reps tell me it's backordered and not shipping until 11/8-11/28 and my account recently updated to reflect this on the order. At this point, you're better off trying to walk into a store on 10/28 first thing when they open and pick it up.
Or you could just pre order hoping for the best. Then if it doesn't come by the 28th, cancel the pre order and just walk into the store to buy it.
I recieved an email expected shipping date is 10/18/--10/24 next day shipping
I pre-ordered my V20 (taking full advantage of the $200 trade from LG by swapping my Note 4 in) yesterday and woke up this morning to three texts, one including a tracking number for my order having already shipped. Will update when I can see a location or when it arrives.

Nah, at this point you're just better off walking into a store and picking it up. Everything I've got points to 11/8 being the early edge of the next availability range. At this point after all that I've been put through, I'm starting to entertain the idea of looking at other carriers. T-Mobile got me in over a dozen years ago for their customer service and now even that isn't any better than any other carrier I've had. (AT&T, Sprint and Verizon, had all three in one way or another.)
I ordered Monday morning, CC charged yesterday and ready for shipping this morning. I just got an email from Ups this evening saying it will be here tomorrow. I wasn't expecting that.
It has arrived, and I is very nice, now time to say goodbye to my Note 7...
I ordered at 10am central Monday morning in store (JOD). I have origin scan in Louisville and scheduled for delivery on Wednesday. I changed delivery to a hold at UPS customer center so I could get it at 9am when they open.
I just pre ordered mine. If I don't like it I'll pay it off and sell it on Swappa at full price lol. Or at least get my money back. Plus I keep the headphones too lol. Now the waiting game begins.

ordered mine yesterday after a half hour after my friend ordered his, my phone on the website appeared as back ordered while his was processed and shipped today. Tried to cancel the order and they said I couldn't because my cc was charged and on there end it shows ready for shipment however there was no tracking info. The only thing i got back was my expedited shipping fee credited to my account..........

US Unlocked S8 & S8+ Waiting time

Those who preordered or ordered the US Version of the S8 or S8+, how long did it take before you got it? I ordered mine (Model # SM-G955UZKAXAA) on May 31st directly through Samsung and I haven't even gotten a tracking number yet however I can simply walk into any Best Buy in my area and pick one up. I'm thinking of cancelling the order and just doing that.

They are shipping 2nd day air but it has been a week now and still no sign of it being shipped. I called them last night and the rep said they weren't on backorder so I don't know what's taking them so long. She said I should be getting a tracking number today but still haven't gotten anything. I'm ready to cancel my order and get something else.

Yeah if mine doesn't ship by Friday I might just cancel mine, they should should be able to contact the warehouse see whats going on, unless yours just got lost at the warehouse, but Samsung wants to sell phones then they need to get there act together and ship orders promptly.

I know. We spend 800 something on a phone and the service is awful.
Ordered the S8+ 64GB (Unlocked), Model Number: SM-G955UZKAXAA, ( SM-955U1 ), through my Samsung account.
Ordered June 5th (evening after 5pm)
Confirmed June 6th
Shipped June 7th (picked up by FedEx @ 5:39pm in Indianapolis using 2nd Day shipping)
Tracking number states it will arrive June 9th between 9:45am-1:30pm. (North Florida)
Indirect signature is required. You, your neighbor, apt. office manger, etc. or sign door tag for delivery on the next attempt if they miss you. I have a FedEx Delivery Manager account but can't electronically sign it for this particular shipment like I can with my UPS account. I am leaving a signed signature waiver release form for both the phone and the separately shipped nano SIM card. If I'm not there and they don't accept my signature release form, it will probably be Monday before I get it.
Wouldn't you know it. I finally got my tracking number six business days later. I should have the phone in two days.
yeah I just woke up to email stating my has shipped and should be here Friday with indirect signature, so I will have to type up and sign a release and hope they take it.
FedEx accepted the my signature waivers and the S8+ was delivered as scheduled at 10:30am on June 9th. It was about 3.5 days from the time I submitted the order until it arrived at my front door.
Bought mine from Bestbuy..Same day pick up
I had preordered on Amazon, but got sick of waiting. Especially since Best Buy is selling for $725 right now

Yeah I walked into best buy and bought one. Then went back 3 days later for the $100 credit from the price drop.
I'm sitting on the back ordered list. I have the $100 off plus the $200 trade in for any smartphone. I don't want to walk away from such a great discount.
