Well everyone. I finally got the best answer I have ever heard. This is probably some news to everyone as I have not seen it posted here.

From Google Rep Christie B:

The orders are being assigned when they come in automatically to an IMEI that matches the phone to your order. If your orders IMEI had a problem during production than this is what caused the delay. Instead of giving you the next available phone, they are waiting for the one that matches the IMEI to be created. So if someone has an order after us, and their IMEI is ready, the phone will then go through the process of shipping.

So cheers everyone, maybe one day an IMEI will be created for our original orders that actually matches and we will get a phone.

That is insane. Absolutely insane.


ALSO For whichever of you is ahead of me in the line for the Google CS chat. PLEASE WRAP IT UP. lol Been #1 in the queue for like 10 minutes.
 
The results are in, and he's telling the truth. My fingers are broken now.

Ditto. I am typing this with my Elbows. I thought one finger was just a fluke, tried others and couldn't resist the last set of tests on thumbs. Be careful guys.
 
Woot, my order went to shipped status. Checked at 7PM PST. Got tracking but not showing yet so they probably ship tomorrow?

In the span of 24 hours, my order went from pending > processing > shipped. Out for delivery, scheduled to arrive today. I didn't pay for overnight shipping (I took the free version) but apparently got it anyway. I'm in a Los Angeles suburb and the phone is was shipped from Mira Loma.
 
I ordered mine from Huawei on 10/19 since none were in stock on the Google Play Store. I really thought I would have mine by now. Ordered the 64 GB Silver one since they weren't selling the 128 GB model at the time.

I've done several online chats with them and was told it would ship by the end of last week and receive the 1st week of Nov since I placed my order before 10/21. Orders after 10/21 would be shipped the middle of Nov, however as of today, 11/4 it still says processing. Makes me pretty upset since I see others getting their phones and they ordered theirs after me. You would think getting your phone from Huawei would be faster, but apparently not.

I'll be happy once it ships, but then their delivery time appears to be slow also with a 5-7 days for shipping.

I ordered on 10/1 from Huawei and it JUST shipped out on 11/2 at 7:30 at night. Is being delivered Friday 11/6.
 
This is an issue for me now because i ordered the same on fri night but it said ship by nov 12th now it says ship in 1 to 2 days for new orders im still pending

i ordered a 32gb Aluminum on 11/3 and it's shipped today to be delivered tomorrow (i got overnight shipping)

i had such high hopes for a smooth nexus launch this year with how it started out. (i was in huawei ordering hell before i cancelled with them, got bored and ordered from google)

maybe next year google can finally get their crap together

That's absolutely unacceptable. I cannot believe Google as an organization cannot do better that this.

yea that makes no sense since they aren't tying it to your account on the phone OR giving you an activated device on a carrier.

there's no reason to tie the IMEI to the order pre-production. if anything when a phone is ready to ship, scan it at that point and tie an IMEI to the order.
 
FYI, mine is shipped FedEx. I called because usually no one his home until 6P. The rep said signature authorization is not required but depending on where you live, drivers may not leave it at the front. She suggested I leave a sign telling the FedEx delivery person to leave it at front door. I live in a gated community and know my neighbors so I felt safe doing this.
 
ordered a Aluminium 64GB last week on the 29th. Got my shipping notification today, and it's being overnighted (even though I did not upgrade shipping). Have a trip planned for this weekend, so hopefully I can get a case and it all set up before take off Friday AM
 
Right folks, last update from me. finally received my delivery email confirming its been shipped and be with me tomorrow. This matches the original estimate of 3 - 5 Nov timescales. Had Google been more upfront with their communications, I wouldn't have to participate in this forum, however was comforting seeing that mine was not an isolated issue. I do hope you all get yours soon.

I'm hoping for the same seeing as I just ordered an hour ago. Would be super sweet.

lol The google rep that I'm talking to says it's first come first serve and I keep telling her people are ordering NOW and getting orders NOW yet my phone is still not even processing. She keeps sending canned responses...

The process is designed such away that we don't have access to edit manually.
Hence, its purely works on first come first serve.

That is total crap! Are you not reading what I'm saying?
I'm hearing many accounts of people ordering this week and already receiving them.
I ordered mine a month ago yet I don't have mine yet

We recently discovered some unforeseen production issues. Rest assured we’re working on getting these devices shipped as quickly as possible. You will receive an additional email communication once your device has shipped.

These really feel like canned responses.
Can I speak to someone else please? A manager perhaps?"
