Question about ordering from google play and shipping

[mc511]

Okay so i ordered the nexus 4 16 gig from google play tonight. Good says it will ship the device on August 29th. I ordered the 2 day shipping option. What day should i expect my device? I am in no rush to get it at all, its just that i wont be home either friday or saturday unless i call out of work which would be friday (cant really do it saturday). If its monday that be perfect since i am off.

Also would i need to sign for the package?

Probably Monday, if where you are is like the UK, and yeah you'll definitely have to sign. They don't tend to leave ?300 phones sitting on the doorstep!

Nah i am in New Jersey actually. South Jersey.

 

[fuzzylumpkin]

A southy eh? (Most of what I know of new Jersey I learned from Kevin Smith lol, old Jersey has very good milk though...) Yeah our guys don't consider Saturdays "working days", unless you pay extra. I assume you'd are the same...

I'm in the midlands. I ordered mine 14.40 it came at 10.00 the next day. That was on Wednesday 3/4 weeks ago.
It said 3/4 days. I was impressed.
There was a big note saying something like "do not deliver to neighbors"

What do you mean you ordered it 14.40? Did you have to sign for the package? Thanks for all your help guys. If it is to be delivered on thrusday or friday ill just call out of work, i have some sick days i should take or PTO really.

I think he meant to say he made the order at 2:40pm one day and it arrived at 10am the following day despite the shipping being described as 3-4 business days.

Btw, you should have just asked used your office address as your delivery address.

I didn't have to sign for mine.. The guy who delivered was prepared to leave it on my doorstep as he rang the doorbell and when I went to open the door he was already halfway back to the van and just gave me a wave and drove off..

This. I have ordered quite a few things from the play store and none of them needed to be signed for.

Google ships UPS who doesn't deliver on Saturdays and Mondays Labor Day so you may be looking @ Tuesday the 3rd.

Yes I meant this!
it went shipped/ dispatched 08.00 next day I got tracking number two hours later I got the phone.
I had to sign for it, they wouldn't leave it without a signature

 

[mc511]

My job won't let me do that sadly. Strict rules and they kinda suck. Well it shipped out at 4am this morning do hopefully tomorrow since I have off. If not ill have to drive home Thursday to pick it up on my porch.

 

[mc511]

Okay small update, the package is in Newark NJ which is like 2 hours away from me. I am assuming this will be here tomorrow then? If so thats perfect because i am off tomorrow.

If you weren't aware, you should get your price matched to the new price (in case you haven't seen the price drop!).

 

[mc511]

Would i just have to call google to get a price match? I have been out of it most of the day so yeah.

 

[fuzzylumpkin]

Yup, everybody's doing it! Congrats on the bargain of the decade!

Okay phone came in just fine today, and everything seems to work the way it should. Now one last question. What case would you guys reccomend getting? I want to get this screen protector as well. I like to hear everyones thoughts

LG Nexus 4 E960 Screen Protector | invisibleSHIELD by ZAGG

 

[John Beirne]

I have the acase superleggero and a cheap screen protecter. Its got good reviews but to be honest I haven't seen it yet as my friend is bringing it over in 3 weeks... I don't think you need an expensive screen protecter as the glass is already scratch resistant.

If its a Google play device country then yeah. I'm from finland which is not, so I've got a friend to deliver it for me from uk. If you look around online there is another way by fooling the system....?? But it sounds a bit dodgey.
