This is a bit of a joke!! order my 16gb on the 4th.... why are the 8gb getting delivered with days!!
Well if you check JTWZen, he has a 16Gb on order and he missed his delivery today, so i don't know how they are selecting the order process. I ordered my 8Gb a couple hours after my friend bought his 16GB and i had mine "attempted" delivery and his is still pending. So no idea how Google are processing the delivery orderes
Ordered 16GB on the 4th 17:05. 1-2 weeks on invoice. However I too have heard of people with 5-6 weeks on their invoice with orders shipped or confirmed to be shipped this week!
Called Google (number on the invoice) they are none the wiser, but say they 'should' still be fulfilled within 1-2 weeks. Pah..

Yo go to your Wallet management, then Payment methods, ADD CARD OR ACCOUNT.
Done.
me neither i ordered a 16gb at 17:20 on the 4th dec still no details on shipping, ive dropped them an email just now, aslong as i have it for the 16th lol.
Finally managed to reorder mine this morning (had to cancel the first one from Tuesday as they wouldn't change the address on it). It's gone from 1-2 to 5-6 weeks shipping so I hope they were being overly pessimistic as I don't want to wait that long after they had initially told Mr the first one had 'shipped' already!

I ordered mine yesterday (5th Dec) at 21:00 and today I got an email with the tracking number from TNT! It has been shipped and It might arrive this Saturday!
Looking at the comments here

It seems people who ordered later in the day with a longer shipping window are getting their orders first.
Makes no sense...

Hey mate - did you order the 8G or 16GB version?I ordered mine yesterday (5th Dec) at 21:00 and today I got an email with the tracking number from TNT! It has been shipped and It might arrive this Saturday!
I think 8GB models are being shipped first.
By the looks of this forum and the cnet comments (Nexus 4 stock shortage down to 'huge demand', LG explains | CNET UK) I think the 8GB models are being shipped first.
Explains why people who have ordered the 8GB model are getting the shipping email that quick.

Just called them to hear what the problems are 'from the horse's mouth'.
A very polite american guy apologised and said they haven't received the devices themselves yet, so this hints its an LG problem. For me, if that's true though, they shouldn't be selling items that aren't ready to ship out - that's really naughty. The minute the devices they have are sold, they should bring the shutters down. Can you imagine if a PC World store worked this way? "yes Ma'am, we have your device, just pay for it over there. Thank you for your payment. Oops, sorry we don't have it in stock after all but you might get it sometime in the next couple of months... Is that ok for ya?"
Naughty Google... :thumbdown:

But didn't they say you would receive it in 1-2 weeks or more? I'm not sure what you need other than to get it in that time frame. If they don't deliver within the time frame promised then it's a different story. Placing orders as a company is waiting for stock is nothing out of the ordinary. I would rather have this than a sold out sign that I have to check 5 times a day.

I'd rather be on the waiting list than waiting for the next rush buy the few phones they had in stock. Though I would like to know if my 2 weeks will be 2 weeks. I really don't trust Google with this.
Big releases are one thing Apple do well - announce that pre order is available 2 weeks before launch then ship as you get them in stock.

I agree, but Apple also has a ton more experience for this. If you look back on Apples history on delivery, they have had many delivery blunders as well. Even for the iP5. They know that the demand for iDevices will be huge now so they plan accordingly. Google didn;t have any idea what this phone was going to do. They were basing it off of a bumped up Galaxy Nexus which was obviously not the case. No one has a crystal ball. LG said that the demand for this phone was so far beyond what Google expected.
I am thinking (hoping) that we should be getting our phones in the time quoted to us. Maybe a shipping notice early next week
. Google definitely had a hiccup in the first mass order, but it now appears to be getting settled down into some sense of what they need to do. Anyone that didn't get their device in the quoted time was getting a refund on their shipping.well they have blocked ?288.99 off my card .... so i best see something soon. (getting impatient now lol)
