LOL these posts are starting to get annoying! Ok don't shoot me here! haha but seriously people we all have options. Option one pre-order, sit at home and have your device delivered. No need to go to the store. Option two get your butts up, go to the store on the release day, hope they have them and get it. PERIOD! What's the whole big fuss about? I mean you can't wait couple of days to get your device? I'm probably one of the most impatient person when it comes to these things and I can honestly say I'm not that pressed about it. I knew it would ship the 10th when I ordered it and I still ordered it. No one lied and I had a choice!

Ok that's it. LOL. All that said I would be very happy if I did receive it by the 10th haha.

No kidding! Stop already lol... Big Red says the 10th and that's the only fact out there at the moment.


Learned my lesson about being patient after pre ordering my last two phones...the last being the Note 2. After all the fuss and waiting I got mine the day I was told I would. It was worth the wait, but the last week was the worst.

A buddy of mine canceled his pre order of the Note2 two days early and tried to go pick one up in store... only to find out every store in my area (VZW, Best Buy, etc) had already sold out of the limited amount of devices they received in store for the initial release. Needless to say, he wished he had waited for his preordered device.

If you cancel your pre order I'd recommend doing what the iphone boys do....be camped out side the stores before they open. My understanding is preorder doesnt guarantee youll get the device early. It just guarantees you'll get a device on the release date since theres no guarantee stores will have adequate stock.

I work for a retailer. If we promise an exact ship date we would never, ever ship early. If we did there's a strong chance that the credit card charges would fail. People are counting on Verizon shipping, and charging their credit card, on October 10th. Not a day sooner. Doing it sooner would be breaking a promise and not a good business tactic.


I actually expected my card to be charged immediately when I pre-ordered. I was very surprised when it did not, and I called the store back to make sure nothing was wrong.

Good news all... I just got off the phone with Verizon and they said they are going to start shipping out the pre-orders sometime tomorrow. I'm guessing our credit cards will be charged either tonight or tomorrow morning. :D

Why would you cancel if it doesn't ship before 10/10? It says when you place the order it will ship by 10/10...
Because people are CRAZY LOL

Still no tracknig number

Card has been charged, no tracking number.
I did see reports of people getting tracking numbers, and some shipping from Memphis.
If so , I will have mine the next day :)

Also, I called Verizon, he said they will ship today and there are 2 day shipping should have them on the 10th.

According to payment card industry (PCI) rules a charge should never be made until the product ships.

I received a FedEx number. FedEx picked it up today and it's scheduled to be delivered on Thursday before 4:30pm.
