Has anyone heard anything from Best Buy orders?

I preordered from Best Buy last week. Has anyone heard if their orders are on the way?

**DianeR** · 07-03-2012, 05:44 PM

lol. Haven't heard anyone who ordered from Best Buy posting anything today about cell phones shipping. BB people have been pretty quiet while people who ordered from Verizon are posting like crazy, giddy with excitement over their cards being charged and receipt of fedex delivery tracking info.

I ordered from bb on june 5th. I have contacted them multiple times and have gotten no date. I went ahead and pre ordered with verizon as well. who ever I hear from first gets my money. The end.

LOL I can't say that I blame them. I almost preordered through VZW but I jsut knew with my luck, if I had taken a phone with the intent of swapping it back out, like I'm doing with BB, they'd be outside the 14 day window and I'd be stuck. So, evenif I have to wait a litlte longer, at least I keep UNLD

thought the latest word was if you didn't order through Verizon you are not keeping your unlimited.

Nope. Verizon and Best Buy themselves told me, as well as a BB employee on the boards chimed in and said they have a procedure to add the umlimited back on, if you've done what I and a few others have done.

There are still a lot of people yelling that we won't keep unld, but my response is...wait and see.

I called my local best buy right before close and in typical fashion they had no idea when to expect the Verizon version, but they stated they did have blue and white Sprint Galaxy S3s, but none in black right now.

Yes, that shows you the level of employee knowledge at this particular Best Buy...

**demiles** · 07-04-2012, 05:44 AM

I'm waiting for the email from BB myself. I haven't had a new Android phone since my Moto Droid2.

**cknaack** · 07-04-2012, 12:23 PM

I placed a pre-order too with best buy june 14th for my gf and I. 32gb white and i have heard nothing, I have called and asked about a date when orders would be in. They dont have a clue, i mentioned that if i ordered now with verizon they would ship by 7-11. They guy couldnt even tell me if the order would be in around that date, half tempted to order with verizon and possibly cancel my order with Bestbuy??

I thought about that too, but I know for SURE if I did that, I'd lose my UNLD...unless I paid full price for the phone. And right now, shelling out..what is it...$700 give or take, is just not in the cards.

Guess I'll just be patient! NOT my strong point! HAHA!

**cknaack** · 07-04-2012, 01:48 PM

Well I'm paying full retail for both. My gf and I used our upgrades this past February with the htc rezound.

**Worlds2See** · 07-05-2012, 09:23 PM

I haven't heard a peep. Although truth be told I'm pretty sure if the guys at my local store did know anything they would let me know. They seemed to really get it and one of them is waiting for his own phone. If I don't get a ship date soon I might risk dealing with my favorite Verizon store :-P Best Buy is going to lose out on a ton of their pre - orders if they're not careful...

Posted this in another thread:

too dropped in my Best Buy where I preordered my phone. I spoke with the very nice and knowledgable gentleman that helped me and told me how I'd keep my UNLD. I asked if they had any info on an ETA. he said that while they don't have their shipment in yet, they're being told they'd have them ready to go by the 10th. He did say it's *POSSIBLE* that their preorders may come in early, and if so, I'd get that email, then a phone call.

While I'd LOVE to have mine by the weekend, I can wait until Tuesday
