lol.

That is impossible. They have thousands of orders that have never been shipped and they have a huge back-order list. To top it off UPS whom we assume is handling all of the logistics is ***king up. The chances they will get their current orders out this week are incredibly low, to add more orders to it is not happening.

Gibsonflyingv · Nov 18, 2012

I seriously hope its true. I REALLY want to get mine for Christmas. I'm seeing a second chance if this is true.

apollostees · Nov 18, 2012

No one else credible is reporting this.

A story this big would definitely be picked up by the more well known android news orgs. I'm not buying it.

That said, it would behoove Google to get something going soon, so as not to miss the holiday season.

Personally I'm already looking at the SGS3, or the Note II.

Smells like bull****

Richieboy67 · Nov 18, 2012

Seems like bs to me. If this was the case surely they would let us all know. I don't believe it.

No one with half a brain "assumes" that UPS is part of the Nexus 4 roll out fiasco. UPS is delivering the devices, but I'd bet the farm, that they aren't the cause of any of this the issues in getting phones in the hands of buyers.

LOL agreed. "Play Store Reps" have been the primary source of mis-information so far.

tuffballa · Nov 18, 2012

lol agreed but the article also states confirmed by "play store manager" but who knows..if play store reps dont know better..then who does??

Richieboy67 · Nov 18, 2012

If this was being caused by ups, ups would have informed us. They site are not to blame at all.

Yeah I am not sure where that came from.

Richieboy67 · Nov 18, 2012

If there is like a single Play Store manager Ibet he is trying typo get answers also.

Ummm, I think that's dependent on the country you're in. UPS is very accurate in Canada, never had an issue with them before.

UPS is the one who is managing the warehouse that the items are being shipped from. That is why people are assuming they have something to do with this. That and its not out of the ordinary for UPS to work with a different system then FIFO to reduce cost and increase effectiveness.

Thanksgiving 2013?

Richieboy67 · Nov 18, 2012

Ups manages their warehouse? Most Likely they just send trucks..

I really don't think ups is the problem. I asked my brother about this. He is a manager at ups and has been there for over 15 years. He said he has heard nothing about any issues anywhere. He would tell me if he hears anything.

He manages logistics, etc so I am sure he would be able to find out if there was a major problem.

The fault lies with Google. All the double orders, auto page refreshers, etc.. This is why they got messed up but I still don't understand how they could run out of stock so fast unless they were planning it by not having much on hand.

Google does not sell nearly enough devices to warrant having their own warehouse. At the amount of devices that they are selling they have to outsource to a different company. In this case we can easily assume based from where they are shipping from Kentucky where UPS has a very large warehouse for distribution. The fact that UPS was the only shipping option and that google is clearly not working with Amazon, Newegg, Walmart or another large company leaves the most logical guess that it is UPS.

You do not think Google has a warehouse?

They do not sell enough devices to warrant the expenses of a in house where house. Having a warehouse is not cheap, and its some thing you normally have to go big or not at all.
