I ordered nearly the same time as you, same phone and have not moved past pending for me yet, and no charges. Hopeful to see some movement soon.

Throwing this out there to give some hope to those like me who read everyone's post anxiously awaiting updates...

Ordered 64GB Graphite and Nexus Protect on 9/29 at 1:57:04 PM CST, showed anticipated arrival of 11/10-11/12
Google Play account settings showed "Should leave warehouse by 11/5" at some point last week or prior (so many refreshes!)
Status changed from Preorder to Pending last week sometime. Then on Friday to Processing.
Monday I was notified by my cc it had been charged at 11AM CST, just for phone +taxes looking at the amount, by GOOGLE SERVICES.
Cancel order option removed on Google Store & Google Play.
Today at 2:12PM CST my cc notified me of a charge equivalent to Nexus Protect + taxes, again, by GOOGLE SERVICES.
Today at 2:10PM CST I received "Great News" from the Google Store with email and tracking number. FedEx shipping from Carol Stream, IL to Houston, TX (free shipping option) says it should arrive by end of the day Thursday!
Status shows shipped on Google Store now too, by the way.

If it comes this week at all that is a good two weeks before the original anticipated arrival date. This guy is pleased!
 
Finally Processing, charged card, and shipped today. later than some but still before the 30th so Im good.

32GB Silver

order date 9/29 11:20am

Thanks for the update! Houston here as well. However, mine is still Pending and I ordered day 1 as well. What model did you get? I got 64GB Aluminum.

I am the exact same boat ( ordered a couple hours before you) but other then that, all dates and times were the same. I feel bad for people who had earlier date that it hasn't shipped yet, however I had a shipping date after people who had ordered after me, so in the end I guess it all worked out.
 
Just got on the horn with a Google rep and

"Sure. I see that the order is under processing. Once the device leaves the warehouse, you'll receive an automated email with the tracking number and the expected shipping date. I see that the Expected Ship Date is 13 Nov 2015."

32GB aluminum ordered 10/25
 
My 64gb graphite just shipped!! Will have it tomorrow. Ordered day 1. They made their estimated delivery date (Oct 27-28).

Now I can leave this thread.

From processing to shipped?

So finally its being processed and my cc was charged does anyone know how long it will take to actually ship?
 
I got my Google Play credit today. My 6P should be delivered in the morning, so that was a nice surprise.
 
For those that ordered through Project Fi I was told by a Fi Rep today that they are still waiting for their inventory.
 
I'm not sure if the correct response is "it's not the complicated" or "it's more complicated than you think".

I don't work at google but as someone who's done work in more plants than I care to recall it's not just a simple 1 assembly line first in first out system.

You keep saying it's a head scratcher so let's just examine 2 parts of the system and pretend we're google here.

1. You have to forecast demand, if you guessed you'd sell 1 million 32 gig models in the first week and you actually sell 5 million you are obviously going to have to start pushing back estimated delivery dates.

2. As orders come in you assign them to be fulfilled at certain manufacturing locations. Each location will have a different part inventory and lead time when it comes to assembling. So plant A and plant B are not going to finish orders at the same rate.

If you think about it in very simple terms it's not hard to figure out why orders process at different speeds (and this didn't even touch on shipping). Even go a step further and think that if plant A is fulfilling orders faster than plant B new orders will get sent to A and may ship before older orders that are at B.

I can't stress this enough, this is not just 1 line making phones, pulling from the same inventory and making each unique phone as the order is placed. The world just doesn't work like that.

I have a good gauge on how the world works, and in both my businesses, first come first serve basis still rules...like it does in many other businesses.

However YES this is all a head scratcher. Someone just said a co worker ordered much later that he did, same exact phone, and this guy gets his phone first. Listen I'm all for things happening, and I know we live in an un-perfect world...However I have to believe that If I order something almost 3 weeks earlier than someone else (yes same product) that I would at least get my product before the person who ordered much later than me does. That's the nuts and bolts of this. People are saying it's a better system? My question is how?

It's better because people were able to get through without crashing the servers and people who ordered much later than those earlier are getting their devices? Sorry man, I"m not a billion dollar company and I know Google can do what they want, but from a customer and consumer stand point...I feel it's wrong.

I was supposed to go back to work 3 posts ago...lol
 
Re: From processing to shipped?

Mine was processed and credit card charged on Thursday evening. It shipped Friday afternoon (changed to shipping just after noon Pacific time, and I got the tracking number about 20 minutes after that). Delivered yesterday.
 
1. You have to forecast demand, if you guessed you'd sell 1 million 32 gig models in the first week and you actually sell 5 million you are obviously going to have to start pushing back estimated delivery dates.

and so far it looks like they are shipping early... I've seen several people who claimed to order after I ordered mine who got tracking on Friday or Monday and I just got Tracking Today... BUT, the shipping date of today is 3 days earlier than the "Estimated" leaves the warehouse date.

It's still pretty much in line with what was estimated at time of preorder..... On 9/29 when I ordered they gave me an October 30 - November 3rd estimated delivery date and my tracking # says delivery on 10/29 which will be 1 day before the start of the delivery estimate range.... How can you really complain about that??? (Not that you were complaining but in general)
