Which website are you checking ?
Is Samsung shipping the VR and extra goodies with the phones or separate?
It seems that they may be sending all of it at once. And I'm starting to think that those that got the $99 bundle are being delayed for some reason or another. There is a guy on the offical preorder thread that ordered on the 13th like I did and his was shipped yesterday with just the VR.
Not the case. I didn't order the $99 bundle. I ordered on 3/30. It just seems like they are shipping first in, last out.
Where do you get this tag?
I hate the lack of info. Twice before I went from no info to "out for delivery". Early this morning it happened again for the 3rd time.For me it's not the shipping it's the lack of info. If i ad tracking and it says delivering Friday I can plan myself. These phones will have to be signed for. I can't have someone waiting on it without knowing when it's coming. That's the problem. I have never ordered anything without having tracking 24hrs from expected delivery.

That would make sense if the phone was sold out. The phone isn't sold out vNext time order from a carrier and pay for it full price. Samsung will always make sure the carriers get the phones first to keep them happy since the minority will be like you and purchase from Samsung direct at full price. The amount of money Samsung receives from carrier subsidies is to much to risk making its customers unhappy. They will deal with the 50-60k unhappy people who probably ordered from them directly and get the phone 2-3 days later.
Just got a call from Fedex saying my package will be here tomorrow (already knew cause I've been tracking it) Hopefully I get it in the morning but usually around noon they stop by.

To add insult to injury nobody can tell you when you will get your order. Nobody.But Samsung should not have posted that if you order before the 17th they guarantee delivery by the 20th. Why get customers upset if it wasn't possible. I think that's just plain stupid on Samsung's part
I know its a long shot, but has anyone contacted BrightPoint or Digital River? Maybe they have more info than Samsung
