Yesterday I got the approved email that alot of people received but then today I got this.... Think I can submit again for the VR this time instead of the gear s2 and get both? 😜

I got the same email today. I was a little hesitant but I think they are just behind on the whole email thing. FedEx manager has it arriving tomorrow so we will see.

Just talked to a very nice Verizon rep. So the bottom line is, you can't exchange the watch for another (aka moto 360) because samsung is the one providing it and not Verizon. BUT you can essentially sell the watch to Verizon and they credit your account and you can use that money to buy a moto 360. It sounds great and all but my fear is that even an unopened 3g gear s2, wouldn't be credited half of its retail value because Verizon is Satan. So all in all I think it might just be worth it to keep it than try and sell it up for a different watch.

I heard they are also buying back old lawn chairs or other items collecting rust on the side of your 'hooose'.
 
I'm pretty patient..until I see people submitting on 3/31 getting their watches when I submitted on 3/10. Time to make some noise.
 
So I called the Plainfield place that shows up on the FedEx page, on fedex it also says it's called "brightpoint" but the lady assured me they had changed their name, and it is called like ingromicro (sp). So i had gave her the tracking number and she was able to pull it up. I asked if there was any info on it and she said no. I had asked why the past week a label has been created with no activity, she said she didnt know. The phone number that was listed on the FedEx page is actually some insurance co., not the correct place. Poor lady seemed a little ticked off like she's been getting calls all day. So I had to do a little digging to find the correct number. Dead end again boys.

looks like a few people have same idea.... last week when I received my S2 there was 1 listed for sale on swappa for $275 now there is about 15 for sale ... some under $200 now....
 
Prizlogic still has not replied to me. I chose the Gear VR and I submitted on 3/10, got the confirmation on 3/22, and status still says expected ship date 4/1. FedEx delivery manager shows absolutely nothing. Has anyone else with these details received their's yet?

I submitted 3/10 for VR and mine is to be delivered tomorrow. My label was created April 6 I believe with expected delivery of today, but now that's been pushed back until tomorrow.
 
I would like to announce that...

After submitting for the S2 on 3/10 (in PM);
And seeing acceptance weeks ago;
And seeing a label created on 4/2;

There is FINALLY SOME PACKAGE MOVEMENT! Picked up this morning at 12AM and expected delivery on... Tuesday. Well. Tuesday isn't the exciting part. But MOVEMENT!
 
Submitted 3/10 in PM

Approved on Prizelogic site, but shipment date still "pending"
Nothing in FedEx Manager
No label created
Nada

Not sure if it has to do with other variables (your location, how you purchased, what type of receipt you submitted, etc). I know I'm still within my 4-6 week window. But with others getting their watch, I'm getting inpatient. Definitely a somewhat botched rollout so far.

Those with labels in FedEx, do you automatically get notified? Or do you have to check manually? My F5 is stating to wear out...
 
So it seems that the mass emails have generated a huge call volume. I just called and am 53rd on the queue.
So my goal is to call every day until I get my S2. Way too many people that applied after me have gotten theirs and I am happy for them but pissed that I don't have mine and may now have to wait 1 to 4 months for it.
I just want to know who messed up

you have to set up notifications in the fedex delivery manager for sms or email alerts....

Thanks for the heads up! I just checked fedex and it's supposed to be delivered tomorrow. Submitted 3/11, label made 4/2. Was supposed to be delivered today according to the Samsung site, but I'll take a day late.
 
Annoying that people who submitted their S2 requests after I and many others did, are getting theirs first. Screw PrizeLogic.
