Anyone order from Samsung directly?

Still no phone yet. I'm dying over here. The delivery location is less than twenty, probably close to ten miles away. It left on a delivery truck at 730am. Halp!
 
Haha, that's basically why I haven't called already.

Imagine if you purchased from a carrier or Best Buy or Sams club. All those people have to go through Samsung Promotions to get in line to get a Gear VR. And adding the $99 immersive bundle is creating real havoc for S8 owners. And remember the immersive package is limited to 50,000 people. So an extra day to get everything at once won't be so bad.

IF we ever get it

I just checked your tracking, looks like it was loaded on wrong truck. Probably Saturday for delivery.

It is a big deal to me since I blocked out this day to make sure I am home to sign for it. And for people who ordered after us and have already recieved everything is just like a slap in the face. So if I don't get it delivered today I'm just going to refuse delivery because I'm not waiting around another whole day or driving 25 miles to a FedEx depot to pick it up. I'll wait for the Note or maybe another flagship that will come along this month or next month
 
I still dont even have a tracking #, email from fedex/samsung saying shipped, and tried the reference # searching. Phone support wants me to believe they magically shipped it and it'll arrive tonight. FedEx delivery manager / reference search would show me even if a label was made. Samsung has botched two phones in a row. What a mess.

That's assuming its even shipped at this point.
 
I got the shipping notice this morning that it was overnighted for delivery today by 8PM today. I am upset that it is coming today. I had a killer day planned. Now I am sitting around like some stupid little child waiting for a dumb christmas present. I thought Friday would be the day. My preference would be Monday or Tuesday. It's not a big deal. Now that stupid speaker box that I had to sign for was a big deal. I didn't know it was coming and then I notice a Fed-Ex slip 2 days after the first attempt. So they would redeliver on Tuesday. I sat home all day to get the speaker box and Fed-Ex never came. So why didn't I sign the slip and just have the speaker box left? I never knew what was in the box from Fed-ex until I picked it up. The next day Wednesday I had to drive to Fed-Ex to sign for the package at the Home Delivery location. Wow that place is like a prison facility with tough-guys issuing orders. That took forever. The problem is Fed-Ex, not Samsung.
 
I've seen 2 drive through my neighborhood. Oh, the agony. I just know it will come while I leave to pick my daughter up from school.

Two have driven by my house too.

Not that i'm glued to the window or anything... *whistles nonchalantly*
 
At this point I could just go to the store and get one

And, then you would have to order a gear VR from Samsung Promotions (limited to 450,000). And then you would hope and pray to possibly be allowed to order the Immersive package (limited to 50,000). Then you would have to sit around and wait for Fed-ex to come and deliver that package. Sounds like a good plan.

I already got a 256gb memory card. I just got the package bc it was a good deal and I can probably make money on it.

All I want is the phone.

And if you purchased the phone from Best Buy, or Sams or TMobile or whoever other than Samsung you likely would not get the package to make money on. Additionally you would have had to sign up for the package from Samsung promotions and sit at home and wait for the package to be delivered.

And of course, the free VR offer was for pre-orders and that offer ends today.
