GS2 may not drop Friday!!!

**dguidry12** · 09-14-2011, 08:24 PM

Hey folks..I just got word from a Sprint Store manager that the Touch may not be dropping on Friday...None of the stores have even gotten their shipments and they usually have the phone 2 days before launch.. This may be true since no retail chain or store has a pre-order program.!!!

**expertzero1** · 09-14-2011, 08:25 PM

i just called a store and he said they are getting it tomorrow with limited supply.

Called my local BestBuy and they have them in, but told me they can't show or sell me one until Friday

**jfenton** · 09-14-2011, 09:04 PM

My store has them as do two others locally....and BB as well. The local RS said they are getting them in tomorrow...once they looked after I made them aware of the fact that it was launching this Friday

While at best buy tonight I was told that only the top 216 sprint selling stores would be getting the GS2 all the others will have to wait awhile.

**remii** · 09-14-2011, 10:40 PM

My best buy and radioshack both confirmed a Friday September 16th release, both going for $200 on upgrades and new lines.

**JayWill** · 09-14-2011, 11:31 PM

I would write that store manager a nice customer suggestion letter, that somewhere in the body tells him that maybe if he ran his store better he'd get the stock for, and better yet, actually be notified of new releases that are at least one notch better than the Samsung Transform.

Ouch, that sucks for the stores that aren't among those top sellers! And also how exactly does delaying new products to the underachieving stores exactly help?

Anyway, doesn't matter. I just buy online.
