Re: Just purchased 16 GB @ 3:34 PM

What are they doing now, allowing one sale per hour?

Yep, as soon as LG notify Google that they've fed the hamster to spin the wheel and manufacture another Nexus 4, Google put it up for sale on the site, then close it off once someone snaps it up.

Re: Just purchased 16 GB @ 3:34 PM

A google rep told me to check on the hour, and guess what. I caught a wild 16 gig one at 1:06 est!!! I was clicking back between 8 and 16 over and over until the 16 gave me the add to cart button.

I talked to my wife and we decided to get our 13 year-old triplets N4's. It took me about 12 minutes of concentrated effort to get all three, but I got three 8G phones. I'm officially done after 2 16G and 3 8G phones...

Re: nexus 4 not sold out

Something's seriously going on... Everybody seems to be having such an easy time with the refresh trick, and I've been trying for at least a couple hours now.

I think they are having server issues which are preventing orders to be placed. I placed my order for a 16GB model at 3:38PM EST after hitting refresh for about 20 minutes.

Yep, everybody pinging the site all over the world thousands of times a second is bogging it down.

Re: Just purchased 16 GB @ 3:34 PM

My friend was just able to order a 16GB at 3:30 CST by refreshing. I accidentally ordered an extra 8GB during the frenzy and I'm too late to cancel. I can however refuse delivery I guess or try and sell it.

Gah. Just refreshed on a whim, Add To Cart button was there on the 8GB, added it, hit Proceed, got error message. Refreshed the cart and it was gone. :'( Can't be constantly hitting refresh all day at work.

Just purchased mine as well. What a day. Good luck everyone.

You've made a purchase on Google Play. You will not be charged until your order has shipped.

Order date: Nov 13, 2012 4:38:27 PM EST

Auto refresh doesnt seem to work. Will keep it on but have a feeling that I won't get one. Congratulations to y'all!

Re: Just got a 16G Nexus 4 at 2:45 EST

Just nabbed my second one after the feeding frenzy. I setup page monitor to check the page every ~15 seconds with desktop notifications on and went back to work. As soon as a notification pops up just switch over to the browser, refresh, and buy. Took about 10 trys per phone, but now we have two 16 GB nexus 4s on the way and we can kick Verizon to the curb and save $90/month on the phone bill :)
