Just got off chat with a Sprint rep. Come to find out Sprint never had stock of the Nexus 6 and is now saying they are waiting on a shipment to send out to customers who have already paid for the device in order it was placed via web or telesales. So what this means is they are giving a "timeframe" of 2-10 business days for shipment.
This is bold face lying to the customer. To say you can "buy" the device on 11/14 was never true. Sprint basically said they would sell you one but never had stock.
A Sprint employee on the Sprint subreddit (r/sprint) said that the Sprint warehouses are still showing 0 inventory, which means stores will also be at 0 inventory today. So disappointing.

Last Thursday there were ~15 cargo ships parked off the Los Angeles ports waiting to unload due to a truck driver protest. Don't think it's any better today.
Got off the Chat again with customer care. I requested a credit. They issued a $15 credit due to the trouble.

Could you pass up the foodchain to your corporate overlords to not be jagoffs and add Motorola-purchased IMEIs to their whitelist? Because Sprint homebase office rats are apparently either idiots or jagoffs. Possibly both.
Can we start a list of what stores have them in stock i can make a list in the OP

Looks like we won't see them till the 21st or later.
Just talked to sprint and guy said they are in warehouse and shipping tomorrow. He said there was an internal glitch
So anyone with sprint have a nexus 6 on their account? I'm hoping since it's not officially released from sprint (no in store activations) that the Moto orders will work once sprint starts activating Nexus 6 on accounts.

Maybe that is true. I just tried to cancel my Nexus 6 order for a Note 4 (I know, I know). But the rep said that he couldn't cancel it because the Nexus is ready to be shipped!!!
Here's a copy of that part of the convo:
Steven: Yes. Just do not navigate on another page on this tab.
Steven: Thank you. One moment please as I look up your order.
You: Ok
Steven: I was able to locate your order. Before we continue, I will need to authenticate your account. The following questions are designed to prevent unauthorized access to your account.
Steven: May I have your 6-10 digit account PIN please?
You: My security answer is *******. I always forget the pin.
Steven: Thank you. One moment please while I review your information.
Steven: I have some good news and some bad news. Which would you like first?
You: Oh man. haha the Bad.
Steven: The bad news is that the order cannot be canceled at the moment.
Steven: But the good news is the reason.
Steven: The order cannot be canceled, because a device was already assigned to your order, packaged and placed on our loading docks, waiting for UPS to pick it up. So that would mean that in a maximum of 24 hours, your order will have a tracking number and a delivery schedule!
You: Oh man that's great!!!! Steven you are the man!
Steven: Thank you.
Steven: Would you like help with anything else today?
You: No that's great. Thank you for the help

Can someone confirm that this isn't a phishing site? Can you guys tell who the domain is registered too. Looks fishy.
you can get $10 discounted / month on certain plans. check slickdeal forms and seach for evo. you have to wait for it to getback in stock though. save $120/year worth it htough.
Not sure if I'm missing something here, but why not just purchase through Sprint.com? I submitted my order on Monday and had it Tuesday afternoon. They give you the overnight-air service at no charge, as well.

I'm pretty sure UPS/FedEx/USPS collect deliveries at a certain time. For example, if you order in the morning, your order will probably ship the same day. After 2-4 PM, however, you've got to wait until the next day for it to ship.
If you haven't gotten your shipping confirmation, I'm guessing they didn't pick your package up today from the warehouse.

Well they've had the domain since 2005 good thing, they only register for one year at a time may be a bad thing could be cuz of godaddy discounts.

i emailed the person and got a response and the discount is approximately $20 cheaper than with my 20% discount
they apparently have a lot of EVOs, but i need some more info before pulling the trigger on the deal

Cool thanks for the verification.
If you order a evo before 12PM EST with overnight shipping you are bound to get it the next day. unless your order just didnt get placed.
ive done it so many times with so many phones and different things. long as you give it 12 hours to get accept, it will ship that same day.

Trying to live a life where I don't have to give money to Best Buy. Saw that Verizon updated their Xoom page this weekend, but surprisingly still no order or pre-order information.
I'm assuming if I walk up on Thursday morning they'll have them, but stranger things have happened. Any word on Verizon corporate stores and their expected Xoom inventory?
Just called my local Verizon store, no one there knows if they'll get Xooms to sell on Thursday.
I've heard Verizon stores are only getting 2 or 3 units. This is all rumor at this point, but I do know that BB stores are only getting 5-10 units to sell with most being closer to 5.

I was at a Verizon corporate store in North Seattle yesterday. I asked if they were going to have Xooms on Thursday. The guy I ended up talking to would not come out and outright confirm it, but "highly recommended" I visit the store early on Thursday. Take that for what it's worth. I'm buying mine at Costco.
Just saw this on BGR this AM:
(boy genius report url)/2011/02/22/verizon-wireless-to-launch-motorola-xoom-on-february-24th-599-99-on-contract/
Surprised they aren't doing pre-orders.
As a corporate store they r not allowed to disclose that information on stock count even after Thursday but trust me they have plenty

Its worth calling. Icalled my local VZW store today and asked if they were doing any presale on the Xoom. She said she would hold one for me and took my name and number. I'll be stopping by Thursday morning (opens at 7:30!) to pick mine up. If they end up not holding one for me, all is well, I have a pre-order in with Best Buy.
But, moral of the story, its worth calling and asking if they will put one on hold for you.

Looks like an early morning for me as well. There's a non-corporate store near me, so I'll also check in with the owner tonight. The small shops are usually pretty good about cutting deals, but they usually get stock after everyone else.

Rotten customer service, poorly informed apathetic sales staff and being forced to listen to a sales pitch for product protection plans which is laced with guilt and unfounded fear for most consumers.
Since there is no price advantage at Best Buy, why put up with the aggravation.
Corporate VZ stores will definitely have Xoom's available on the 24th.
I saw that letstalk.com had the Epic Touch 4G to be shipped today (Sept. 12th). Mine's awaiting carrier approval, but I'm eager to see if anyone else's order has shipped.

I was told on phone that it will not be ready to ship until friday later in day. They said if the release day is on the 16th then that's when they receive the phone. I don't know how true that is. I would imagine they would get it at least one or two days in advance, but I could be wrong.

I was expecting it to ship on Thursday or Friday, so arriving Friday possibly Saturday or Monday...but somewhere I read someone saying they were going to be sent on the 12th but I didn't quite believe it.
I've also seen some random phones getting shipped out early from some other recent phone launches so just wishful thinking.

I just ordered mines over the phone. I was told they won't be receiving the phone till Friday. So it won't ship till Friday. Hopefully the person was wrong and they receive and ship the phone early.

I just called amazonwireless customer service and they said if its an older grandfathered in play, you'd have to order it through sprint. But customer service isn't always right so....
Ordered mine on Sunday from letstalk/walmart and also chose the $18 overnight shipping. My status has been on "Carrier Approval" for 2 full business days, Sprint pulled my credit report on Sunday.
I do also remember the website explicitly saying orders would start shipping the 12th, but it doesn't seem like that is accurate.

Hi all
I cancelled my Google order last week before shipment due to getting one of the emails saying it was delayed. I bought from pc world here in the UK in the end.
On Sunday I got an email saying my tablet has been shipped. I checked the tnt ref today and apprantly my Gardner has signed for it today while I was at work. I dont have a Gardner!
At the time of canceling my order i removed my c/card details from wallet to ensure the order was not shipped. I checked my balance as of last night and they have not debited the money. I checked with my bank and they have pre authorised the funds but not taken it.
How quick was your money taken compared to delivery?

Once you click GO on a purchase a contract is formed between the card issuer and the retailer.
The funds are booked and the item is then shipped. Once the item is shipped the funds are released to the retailer.
If the gardener has signed for it they have a free Nexus and you have to prove you're not a gardener and don't employ one.
if you can prove that then liability is with the carrier and your card issuer is responsible for the refund.
Neighbor with the last name gardener? Call Sherlock
In the US they have typically been charging on shipping day, mistakes aside...

just annoyed since sure, it makes business sense to reserve them for new and upgrading customers. Buy if I'm buying a tmobile branded phone I am, with a 99.99% probability, going to be using the phone on their network and I'll still be using their service... Not to say I've been a tmo customer for 7 years but because I'm not a new customer or ready to extend my contract 2 years, I have to wait
