Okay. I called my former college room mate. He worked at Fed Ex in Pittsburgh for a few years. We both ordered Incredibles at the same time on 4/18. Since he lives in Baltimore, His is coming from Philly. My package hasn't moved from Memphis since Sunday, so I was wondering what was up. He called a friend he has at Fed Ex and everything is normal. BUT here's what "normal" means. 2 day shipping is exactly like overnight, except they hold onto the packages an extra day. His friend said our packages are in the 2 day can. So in essence a holding pen. Sooooo, tonight we should see the package move on a route as if it were an overnight package, ending in delivery to our houses tomorrow as scheduled.

I was thinking that was probably the case. Thanks for the confirmation.
 
You guys are lucky...my tracking page only says the following:

It's still supposed to be delivered by 4/28 7:00pm...but I'm getting nervous that it wont.

Verizon rocks

Ordered yesterday at noon. Got my tracking number today at 9 am. Don't know if it makes a difference, but I had it billed to my monthly statemnt

PS. Use promo freeovernt

I also ordered yesterday, except at 3:30pm, and billed it the same way. Still no tracking # yet but glad to hear you got yours so soon.
 
FedEx says that my magnetron is scheduled to arrive on the 29th, should I remove the cellophane from the popcorn now or wait?
 
My package has not moved from Ontario, CA since the 26th..........UNTIL JUST NOW!

Status update added the device moving from Ontario to San Diego hub to ON TRUCK FOR DELIVERY at the same time.

FEDEX is playing with my emotions.
 
the girls at the BB by me tried to tell me it was not refundable. I told em watch me NOT buy it from you with that kind of crap. They also never bothered to return my call on the NE2 question... those people are just burger flippers. They dont care about actually making a sale/creating customer loyalty.

I preordered mine from Best Buy in Rock Hill, SC. The manager of the mobile section who took my order was polite, knowledgable, and was happy to honor my NE2. We bought my wife's Eris there previously, and the employee who sold the Eris to us was also polite, knowledgeable, and even installed the Invisible Shield on her phone quickly, without bubbles, and for free.

I know it sounds like an advertisement, but I get very enthusiastic when a business treats me right.

So, essentially, FedEx Overnight is a scam. Since, 2-day is Overnight with an extra day of sitting around in Dickinoff, ME, Overnight can't cost FedEx company any more than 2-day.

I figured Overnight involved direct routes and dedicated trucks.
 
noooooooo. Sooo many w their phones!! haha i have my 16gb class 6 card and black to red fade case sitting here, all alone.. with no device to cuddle. stupid best buy waiting until the 29th. DOH!

That's what I thought too...........
 
Order Date: 04/21/2010 @ 1:13pm

Order Number: 5200XXXX

Order Status: We have received your order. Please check back tomorrow


lol mine has said tomorrow for 3 days ... anyone else order on the 21st that got their or even a tracking number?


I'm going through the same thing . . .late comers have either already received their phone, already have tracking numbers, already have the 2-3 days notice. This is how people get hurt!!! (J/K)

I WANT MY INC ( like Sting I want my MTv):confused::mad::confused::mad:

Not really. . . To get an overnight package to its destination, it is sorted overnight, and put on an airplane within hours. The 2-day packages get set aside during the overnight sort, and are sorted the next day (during the daytime). They are then put on aircraft after the overnight sort that night. This allows Fedex to be more efficient in the use of their facility.
 
For what its worth to everyone who is upset about their FedEx package not moving . . . I preordered mine around midnight on the 19th. I still don't have a tracking number and Big Red's website still says order being processed. WTF!?!? They still have not charged my credit card. I'd be content with some forward progression. I haven't pooped in days because of this suspense.

Sounds like this is also what is being done with the Ontario, Ca shipment being stalled in L.A.
 
I bet the OFFICIAL Moto Droid Thread was just like this right before launch day. Talking about shipping info's and preorders haha. I love the anxiety, anticipation, and adrenaline that comes with a new product launching.
 
Ok, so explain this to me. I pre-ordered on the 21st. This past Saturday the order information reads that my order has been processed, check back tomorrow. Being three days later it still says check back tomorrow. A co-worker ordered his on the 23rd and now has a tracking number for his order. I call Verizon and they call internet sales to only tell me that it won't be shipped out until the 29th since that's when it's released. I call back and the next person tells me it will be shipped out on the 28th and will be received 2-3 days later. I'm like WTF happened to overnight shipping??? And why hasn't my status changed??

Verizon told everybody when you preordered they would be delivered on the 29th. Those people who got the incredible early are just lucky and I guess your not!
 
not sure if it's been posted yet, but I just got my shipment this morning @ 10AM from UPS (UPS corp. discount so that's how they ship it too).. And it did come w/ the 2GB SD card, shipping weight was 1.5lb.

Other info: I ordered 4/19 @ 5AM, got the 2-3 day status update on Saturday, then tracking email yesterday. Didn't use shipping coupon, chose free 10:30AM delivery when purchased


Still letting it charge "just to be sure"... So I'm just itching to turn it on and play! Good luck to everyone still waiting, hopefully they'll all be in soon for y'all!
