Pretty awesome how the winds have shifted and blown all the smoke from Wy and Northern CO into Denver :mad:

Given the lousy air quality I'm inside now... guess I'll hang out here for awhile

babygurl378 · Jul 4, 2012

It definately doesn't look good. I'm stuck at work for now, but will then be headed home wishing us Coloradans had their phones tomorrow.

So far, I haven't seen any Texas shipments ~and just my case there has been allow me to believe this is a regional conspiracy as to why I have yet to be blessed with confirmation emails ~ lol....
waiting.... waiting..... waiting....

Kinda reminds me of black Friday actually. I'm pouring my double vodka a and cranberry to calm sorrows now.

I bought the buy back and Best Buys insurance. Otherwise I would (still could) buy directly from Verizon. If for some reason I don't like this phone I can go to best buy trade in my S3 get $300 and buy another phone off contract.

Buy back and Insurance ain't gonna' help if they don't get you a phone to use in the 1st place. Check Mate!

Thank you, after calling again they finally gave me a number that would work... Does yours still say expected ship date on the 9th?

Yup, still says will ship by 7/9 for me.

Araxen · Jul 4, 2012

I thought Verizon never ships early?

My ship by is the 10th and I hope they don't ship mine till Friday because I don't have the cash atm!

This is no longer an S3 thread. It is now a "How does shipping/FedEx work?" thread.

Dude, you're right!

What are your thoughts about VW yankin' our unlimited data right in time with our pre-orders?

What do I think what? If there should be one? Sure, why not? The more camaraderie we have between members the better! That's what sets AF apart... great members helping and conversing with each other!

When I got up this morning I had already received an e-mail confirming 2-day FedEx shipping. My phone has also left on it's journey. Projected arrival on 9 July.

Edit: Every other phone I have ordered from Verizon has been shipped overnight....

Nope nothing for me yet either, so it's not just a Houston thing...guess it's a Texas thing. Frankly, I think us Texans should have gotten the international version a month ago with everyone else as everyone here thinks Texas is it's own country.

Now off to go drink a Lone Star beer. Their slogan..."The National Beer of Texas." No joke.

Checked the other link and status is "We received your order and it is in process."

Expected ship date "July 9th"

Another Colorado member bites the delay dust. I was a day one order

Could be worse, mine still says the 11th.

To be fair though, I didn't order until the 22nd, so I wasn't really expecting it any sooner.

My very sad birthday continues as I still have nothing... Keep those :beerglass:'s coming rushmore as they help ease my pain. The BBQ is all good brother!!

Well, if you want consolation, Best Buy are even more clueless than normal. I have no idea when will see my 32gb.

Happy B day, none the less

I don't think that VZW site is accurate. When I log in there it says my phone is supposed to ship 7/9/12.... However I have a FedEx tracking # and my phone is in transit. Try here:

Check Your Status - Verizon Wireless

I've been trying that one for a week now, always with the same message when entering my info:

"We are experiencing technical difficulties, please check back later"

I'm guessing because it's a business account, but I'm not sure.

Are you using the long preorder confirmation # for the order # and clicking how you ordered it?

Yes. I actually ordered it through a Verizon Wireless Authorized Retailer (Wireless Zone), so that's probably the issue.

Got the confirmation e-mail from Verizon right after it was ordered though.

Oh I'll have one...eventually.

And if I hate it I won't be stuck with it

You get to keep it if you know the secret hand shake.

Live in Hawaii, ordered mine 6/16, says it has shpped and will be here 7/6

babygurl378 · Jul 4, 2012

So...the verizon rep thinks I might not get mine till Tuesday due to the fires in colorado... I'm hoping that FedEx accepts the shipment tomorrow(Verizon said it has shipped, but in reality it hasn't yet... just checked in) and gets it to me by friday or monday at the latest. Kinda odd that some that ordered later will have theirs tomorrow! Congrats to those that will have them tomorrow, you'll have to keep us updated on how they are.

That'll ruffle a few feathers...

As long as my 6/13 order ships by the 10th as promised that's all I care about. There's obviously no hope for it being here by this Friday, so what's another day or two...

All I can say is I'm sure glad they're charging $30 to upgrade on top of the price, THEN dropping overnight shipping...
