Has anyone else had to deal with the BS of "your order wasnt processed due to a systematic error"? I ordered on the 18th and my order has yet to start processing. Whenever I check my order status it says that there is no record of my order even though my card has been charged already. Spoke to a rep twice and both told me they would send a request to their supervisor.

I think someone STOLE my package because it hasn't moved yet and hasn't shown any kind of action other than the origin scan. ;) Is anyone else in the same Predicament???

My package has moved twice already. The spacing seems to be approx 2-3 hours per jump. So, depending on your origin scan time, add 2-3 hours and you should see it move.

Or, better yet, just ignore it until tomorrow. You'll see movement then. Hopefully a "Out for Delivery" message, as well.

Oh I'm going to sleep lol that's for sure. Although my patients are running a little thin because I've seen people who's packages are being shipped to my same area and they already had a departure several HOURS ago and all mine is saying is Origin Scan at 1:41. Oh well I guess we'll see what happens :)

Mines still at origin scan. Weird. Last week when I ordered conquers for other lines in family plan. It left Louisville at 9pm and was delivered at my doorstep at 3 pm next day (raleigh). So still hoping to get it tomm, even tho it still says origin

Well, I'm in Salt Lake City, so I don't know why it say it has "departed" SLC. ;)

Mine is scheduled for "2nd Day Air" but it already did the entire "air" part today. I'm going glass is half full on this one and guessing I'll see it tomorrow.

Well all you guys got yours I didnt get mine. I call and they told me if I really want mine tomorrow to go buy it directly from the store and refuse shipping from the pre-order so they can give my money back...

Unless I've missed something, or am just plain wrong, this isn't available in ANY stores tomorrow, not sprint stores, not any authorized vendors either (let me know if I'm wrong though, if so, I'll be out there too)

Well thats what the order support told me just now over the phone...
That the S3 will be here by next week. That if i wanted the S3 that bad to buy it directly from the store tomorrow and refuse shipping on the pre-order and that will give me the money back...

which made me think ...when i think about pre-order is to get it before the store...be one of the first one without waiting to get one at the store...

but this guy sends me to the store... then why pre-order if they are going to be at the store...

UPS says mine is at the UPS warehouse about 10 miles from my house...for sure getting mine today. Kind of sad since by the time UPS delivers to my area I'm getting ready for work. I'll get it Thursday but won't have a chance to use it til Friday. :(

Mine says 2nd day air too. Why does everyone think we will get them tomorrow instead of friday?

Mine says 2nd Day Air, but on UPS's website it says original delivery June 22, new delivery June 21.

I think Sprint was on the ball and really shipped all 16gb preorders.

I say this as I had a 32gb on order since 6/5 and as soon as I read they would not be shipped until next week if even then, I preordered a 16gb on 6/19 right before they stopped accepting preorders and mine shipped and will be delivered before 3pm today!!!! So if mine shipped and was ordered 6/19, I think all others shipped too.
