Samsung (direct from them): Note 8 Pre-Order Thread

[bhatech]

I see it USPS. Not UPS.

If your tracking number starts with 1Z it's an UPS tracking number.

Ordered on 28th, mine has confirmed, but says shipping is on the 11th.

Perfect since I'm on vacation and not in the country anyways!

Give me hope. I ordered the 29th. Any movement is good.

Ordered mine on the 27th (only because of a battle with AT&T the 24th-26th) and still sitting at Pre-Order. Unlocked and Samsung financed. Hope I see some movement tomorrow.

WTH, Why did it skip me on the 26th and got you already?

Same as you. Pre-ordered the 26th with next day shipping and still stuck at pre-order. Seems kinda random at this point.

Dunno if it makes a diff but got the memory card and wireless charger option.

The people who are trying to be oversmart and buying some cheap phone on Walmart or swappa or ebay for 90$ or above to get 425$ discount, just be ready to get screwed and get 25$ back. And yes, mark down my words. I am looking forward to another rant thread coming soon.

Same here. Wireless charger and memory card. At&t.

Wow... what an ***

 

[Ray Shaffer]

as long as it's in the list then that should be no problem right

 

[Mdm23]

If it's on the list and in good condition, then why should it matter? The offer is only extended to previous Note 7 owners. It's not like it applies to everyone. No harm done in my opinion, because the majority of the Note 7 owners had to purchase a phone they didn't want to get them by to this point.

I've already talked to Samsung about this...they told me as long as it is in good condition it doesnt matter. I even told them my phone was a prepaid iPhone 5S they told me thats fine

Exactly and if Samsung wants to make another scene by trying to screw the previous Note 7 owners, please be my guest. I'm pretty sure they want to put the Note 7 to rest and not cause any controversy, or articles on the web saying how Samsung is screwing Note 7 owners over this trade in.

Oh, I’m still in Pre-Order status also.

Well, no tracking yet with UPS and the latest models bring it just 40 miles to my east late Sunday, little closer. I got a feeling I'll be under mandatory evac Fri when my phone might get her. What happens they leave my phone out when I'm gone friday and it gets blown away by 140mph winds on Sunday! Yikes. UPS usually doesn't ask for sig I might wait until Sat to leave, the last min.

If it gets that bad I would think they won't deliver. They would be scary though.....

When is Irma supposed to hit FL? I hear it's getting to the Carribbean now

I probably wouldn't have a house if it went a bit more west the surge would sweep it away. At least I'd have my note to tinker with.

 

[jb4kats]

I live in Punta Gorda and the expect track would probably give us cat 1 and 2 winds. If it goes 100 miles west into the gulf as a cat 4 or 5 I probably won't have a house anymore. Charley was compact and didn't have much surge. A large system like this would pile in a lot of surge. Cat 2 winds and there would still be cell service here. I could at least use my 360 camera in the storm though and get some footage!

I wonder when UPS and Fedex stop deliveries. I would think Friday for SEFL. I would think I'd get mine in time on Thur.

I have a place in Estero, just North of Bonita Springs and I hope it doesn't turn toward Fla. It's too early yet to tell but better to be prepared. I'm not down there so I'll be on pins and needles worrying about it. You stay safe though.....

All models hinting at south FL, east coast of FL or even west coast. Could go down there but doubtful. Somewhere in South FL is likely going to be hit by a large cat 4 or cat 5 hurricane. Worse case it stays just off shore the west coast up to tampa and devestates it. That is looking possible too.

You can contact UPS and have them hold it at a UPS station, for you to pick up later. That will ensure it won't be blown away by 140 mph winds. https://www.ups.com/us/en/shipping/services/value-added/hold-for-pickup.page
