Date you ordered and received the phone vs. "will ship by" date

Man, I sound like about the only one that ordered in a store and got an email with my tracking number. The sales dude asked for my email address when he placed the order. I asked why he needed it and he said he didn't need it but if I wanted a tracking number and shipment notification he needed it.

About how long are in-store orders taking these days?

A friend of mine ordered one today and it's supposed to be in store by 8/9. This is in Arizona, if that matters.

I mentioned that he might want to switch for the Droid X (don't hate). If decides to do that they'll make him wait until his phone actually comes in so they can physically exchange it, right? Can he get a $25 gift card?

Here is a strange story

I order my phone on June 11 but they didn't place the order until June 16 so they force my delivery date until July 14. Today I receive a miss package note from Fedex and I check everyone in the house but no one was expected an package. I then call Fedex and they said it is from Verizon but I didn't receive a shipment confirmation from them . I call Verizon up and they told me that my phone haven't ship out yet and that the ship date is July 14. Since confuse, I call Fedex and they confirm that it was under my name and also is from Verizon. Fedex is only 10 miles away so I just decide to go and pick it up than wait for them again. It so nice the phone and surprise it finally came.

Order: June 11
Processed: June 16
Ship date: July 9
Estimated delivery:Jul 14, 2010 by 7:00 PM

Still no confirmation email from Verizon saying it was ship

Hahahah! Gotta love Verizon.

Maybe this means you'll get two Incredibles! :D

I'm 300 miles from home.
Text from oldest daughter:
"Daddy, your phone was delivered"

I'm thinking "excellent!!! Weeks early!!!" (OK, 10 days early ... still ...)
No email or text!! then I'm like "wait a minutes. Ship date waas 7/22 ...
So I text the wife " please open the package" ... it's a box of cigars. OK. That's nice but it's not a ****ing phone!!! ARGH!!!

I'm up! Shocker, huh ;)

JUST finished formating the damn PC. It's all done except for my 100+ gigs of video files. Everything else is installed and/or transfered.

I need a nap :D


Sounds like someone needs an external hdd:rolleyes:, got about 700gigs of movies programs and books on my 1tb external, no transferring needed :D

Sadly I have two of them. An older 250 gig and a 400gig. My pc has an actual 1 TB drive.

I keep backups on the externals but I really like having everything on my main PC. I'm weird.

So it seems a few 6/18's went out today along with several 6/16 and 6/17 orders.

We're getting close! :D

Oh man, I was SOOOO wasted that night! I got home and really wanted to check the forums so I longed in just to see what had happened. Ended up wanting to reply to some threads. All of a sudden I realized that I was wasted and typing funny so I decided to call it a night.

I actually posted that as a new thread and the mods moved it. Wish they had just deleted it :rolleyes: I didn't even remember doing it until I checked my posts the next day looking for something and saw it.

Yea i could kinda tell.... think i'll be nice and not quote some of the stuff you did say:p. btw, you could ask for it to be deleted(pm a mod and reference post# in Inc lounge), or just edit it yourself:rolleyes:.
+1 to having a good time though, lol

Don't know why I didn't think of that... It's gone now. No more proof of me ever drinking.

I did have a blast though. Who knew a $15 bottle of Black Cherry Rum could be so yummy!

^ well, not quite, lol. apologies!

i ordered mine in-store on 06/29 (would have done it online as usual, except after talking to customer service shortly before, was informed i could receive an additional $50 off if i ordered it with customer service or in-store. decided to go to the store & get a hands-on first...) i believe they told me it wouldn't be shipped until something like 07/26, similar to what was stated online, nearly a whole month later! but after my new-every-2 discount, said additional $50 off, & $100 mail-in rebate once i receive the phone, it brought the cost down to $50. so i guess i couldn't complain too much ;) and what is this i hear of a $25 gift card as well?! :D *performs quick google* dam, nevermind...only for orders 06/28 & prior. just missed it!

anyway, since i haven't actually yet received the phone, i technically shouldn't have posted here yet, oops! but i will update once i finally receive my incredible. i really love the feel of it & it's sure to be a welcomely drastic leap forward from my elderly LG Voyager...

i'll catch the lights for now...for y'all. i'm still gonna be awake for a bit.

That is what I am hoping since I still check online today and said waiting for shipping information. It pains me to don't activate and use it but who knows maybe i will get another phone or get the $25 gift card since they don't have information that it ship out already. It only one more day to find out what will happen but at least I got it early.

Mine comes today (I hope). I ordered 6/14 in local store right before they closed for the night at 9 PM. My order process date was 6/14 though. I have seen many that were pushed to the next day. I had 2 day shipping which with the weekend has stretched to 5 days. I just checked my tracking number, it doesn't show it on a truck yet for delivery though. If it delivers today Fed Ex normally comes around here between 2-4 PM. I am trying to stay calm and nonchalant. After all, it is just a phone, RIGHT? :D
