Shipping This Week...!!!!

does that mean they will give us back our 13.99 $ we paid to get the device in 3 business days for ditching us for almost three weeks??

Yes. The email states that:
" As a courtesy and to thank you for your patience, you?ll then receive a credit for the shipping charge within 7 business days."
 
I got the shipping email at 18:01 CST. I ordered around 11:45 CST on release day. I'm coming off an iPhone 4, new to Android. I hope I'll be pleased!
 
Ordered - 11/13 12:02 CST
Backordered - 11/15
Shipping Email - 11/27 (The same mail as everyone else. Not tracking info mail)
Play Store Account - 11/27, Pending
Wallet - No Change

Only thing i'm concerned about is the Pending status in play store account. Has anyone else got theirs changed to Shipping/Shipped/Estimated Shipping?

I am hoping that it ships Tuesday so I can show bit off Wednesday. But my situation is identical to yours.
 
I just received this

Now THIS is gonna piss people off. It goes back up in the Play Store BEFORE the back ordered people get theirs shipped.

All I can say is I'm glad I cancelled my order and Google will NEVER get my money again. What a total shambles!

I knew this would happen. I'm sure the backorders will arrive before the orders today.
 
I got this email too, but NO shipping confirmation... It's going to piss me off to no end if orders open up and I dont have one. The pre-approval showing up on my credit card statement, the info on Google Wallet has been updated to Nov 27th... AAARRRGGG!!! I think I'm going to break my rules and give Google a shout and see if the system isn't updating but my order was shipped anyway.



-- EDIT --

I just got off the phone with a CSR at Google Play. She assured me that my order from the original launch of the N4 would be shipped out and I would have my phone before anyone who orders today. With that being said, I am still a bit worried that a massive influx of orders might backlist me again and push my order being shipped out next week sometime. Here's for hoping... Im going to bed with a beer and some family guy!

Yeah no one is going to do anything. People will order today and it will be a mess again. People that ordered at launch will have it within the 3 week window as stated. Then the sun will set and rise like normal.
 
I'm guessing they got a buttload of new units in which is why they sent the notes last night that our orders would ship today and there's enough left over to start taking fresh orders. There's probably more in the pipeline for delivery soon, like later this week or early next week. Remember, they have to physically be moved from Korea to here and I wouldn't be surprised if they're air freighting them to get them out instead of by more cost-effective container vessel.
 
Yeah I can't wait to see how this turns out. It's gonna be a mess guaranteed and it will crash and sell out again. I know it! Then we'll wait another 2 weeks.
 
There's no chance in hell they would fulfill new orders before backorders. This probably just means that they received a large shipment of N4s and can send out BOs while accepting new orders accordingly.

Umm didn't they do that with the n7? It went on sale in stores before people got their orders. I wouldn't put anything pay them.
 
Two possibilities for our shipping (or 3 if you count overnight)
1. All back orders receive shipping confirmation sometime today before 12:00 pst, all of todays orders ship at a later undisclosed date
2. All back orders as well as new orders shipped at the same time someday this week angering all of those placed on back order and rendering the two and a half week wait less than pointless...
