Went to best buy at 9am in olathe kansas
got one
all activated
everything works fine
there was even a post it not that said 12-11

only problem was the best buy computer didn't have a valid ski, they couldn't ring it up
the manager looked in the system for like 60 min and confirmed it was available today

ended up having the ppm override the system and selling it to me.
in the end. i got one
me and my buddy.
here is a pix for proof!!!!


GLORIOUS NEXUS DAY

Congrats

[Mooem]

Awesome. How do you like it?
I'm tempted to go to Best Buy but I'm sure I won't be as lucky.

[DrPancake]

kick ***!!! way to go!

[ManBearPig618]

Awesome man. Enjoy it. Consider me jealous.

[Live2ride883]

Looking up their number so i can call and confirm, then I will give that number to a manager at my bb and hope I can get one.

[tonysracing]

By forum rules, you are now required to answer every and all questions about the device!!

[sushiglobster]

Your purchase of a GN today only reflects the amount of confusion that Verizon has caused.

How sloppy of you Verizon.

Nonetheless, congrats! I can't wait to get mine!

[jpprice]

Congrats man. Enjoy.

[sfbates]

My friend is here. Getting one. The ppm is having to over ride something bc the sku isnt in the system yet.

[sfbates]

Model is bbm07ts

[TerryMasters]

Congrats dude. Sucks for guys like me who are out of upgrade though, as much as I want this phone it's not worth the mark up BB's charging for it out of contract.

[dadsterflip]

Lucky! !!!!!! Mine was ripped from my hands .... cry they couldn't ring up but wish they did what they did for you.
Woot woot

[chenalex]

The Best Buy closest to my house only got one, and the guy told me they're selling it to someone as we were speaking. So disappointing.

[S281]

if you still have a 'new every two $100' discount on file, you can only use that through verizon corp stores right? BB wont honor will they?

[FedexMike]

You looking for a girlfriend??? You can have my wife for that beast!! Wait... no... well...... Yeah fair trade and I'll give you money!!!!

I'M happy for you sfbates but sad for the PPM. Maybe he wants to lose his job IDK. Congrats though.

Lol

[Live2ride883]

I might have to call foul on this, the OP still has the Nexus listed as his next device. Not his current device.

They have 4 left at the bb in KS, I am on hold for the manager at mine now.

[dubya.t]

I was there with sbates got one with him one of 6 in store....4 left!...pix to come

[chenalex]

For anyone living in LA, the location that's selling their only device is in Westwood. West LA and both Culver City stores either denied they had any in stock, or told me they weren't selling yet. I have a final tomorrow so I'm not that willing to travel too far beyond that radius.

It's a good thing I guess. If I get the phone today, I wouldn't have gotten any studying done lol

[dadsterflip]

Hey guys how did you manage to tell them to overide the system ?
So both times the manager over ride the system to sell it?

[davey11]

Lucky man, congrats.

There were a few saying NO WAY you/re going to get it. BB is breaking vz policy, they will lose their contract to sell vz phones, employees will get fired, yadda yadda. They were so sure. Guess they were wrong.

[Gnoah]

congrats man. Enjoy.

No, no, they were right. That store may lose it's ability to sell future Verizon phones. And it's very likely that people will get fired. That wasn't supposed to happen, there were even several employee news posts telling us that we DO NOT have a date, and we can not disclose inventory or etc to people who ask. Whatever the reason for the delay, there /is/ a delay and the phones can not legally be sold by Best Buy yet.
