I'm not preordering, and to me that just means im going to get it the day of release.
I was wondering what your guys views on the matter was.
Do you think there will be plenty in store? or is your only chance a preorder?
From what I've heard and talked to people at Best Buy, they won't even be in stores until after the New Year. I pre-ordered because I've been burned in the past thinking that they'd have them in store on release day and so far that has never happened.

Oh and NO 64GB IN STORES! Last I checked they were only available from a few online retailers, which totally sucks. Oh and waking up early to go pick it up to save shipping costs is a pretty good deal. If you want a 32GB, stores are the way to go.
I have never pre-ordered any computer hardware before, I thought getting old means being more patience... maybe not this toy.
Anyone has experience with Bestbuy preorder? Do they send it off a few days before official release date so it arrives to you on the day of release?

id like to know this as well, hell if any site did that.. give me a link and ill preorder it right now.
the main advantage to preordering is to ensure you have one at release, going by asus' track record for the OG transformer, not getting one of the initial shipment could mean you're going to have to do a lot of hunting and waiting to get a hold of one.
although, gamestop might be your best bet to picking one up at launch.

i live in canada and i don't have an gamestop anywhere close to me, i do have an EB games tho.
I'm wondering if i ordered one online, could i cancel it if i was able to find one in stores? and what i heard about the last asus, was that they had some in stores they just went out of stock right away, am i right?
I talked with a Best Buy manager this weekend and he said they don't expect to see the Prime in the store until sometime in January.
Another Best Buy post on this site: [Updated 12.04.11]Transformer Prime and Dock on BestBuy.com | New information! is by an employee of Best Buy and he is saying that even when they are carried in the store they will only be the gray version. Gold will on be available online.
As popular and as much hype surrounding this tablet goes, I doubt any will be available in any stores. Especially release day and you haven't preordered yet. All stocks will go to preorders first. Then if any left of someone backs out, then u might luck up and find one.
I just did mines at GameStop. Put $50 dollars down on preorder on 32GB version and I'm guaranteed to get it on Dec. 19th. For in store pickup. Just pay difference when you go in to pickup. You really can put down as much as you want but $50 is the minimum. Also of for some reason you have to cancel, you can get all your money back as long as you hold the receipt. They also said you can come a day or 2 after the 19th. To pick it up if you can't make it that day of release and it's still guaranteed to be held for you.
I think GameStop preorder is the best way to go if you want to have device guaranteed before Christmas or on the 19th. Which is like 2 weeks away! Plus for the same price others charging, GameStop gives you about $42 of pre installed software. I believe it's like 8 games or something that are optimized for tegra3. You can find out exactly which ones they are on GameStop website. These games normally cost about $6 a piece if you get them from TegraZone or android market. So I thinks that's especially cool. That glow ball game is really amazing, as far as graphics n looks go.

cool, but i dont have a gamestop near me, maybe ill go for a road trip or something... i thought gamestop was only for selling consoles and games and stuff, just like eb games.
edit: just looked at gamestop.com... its only for america, i don't have a passport, that sucks!!
Used to be pre-order was the way to go because you were guaranteed one. Now a days It's a diff story! I don't want to face the lines and risk of them not being in the store.
I did. Couldn't put up with "backorder for 30 days" email from best buy on my 11/30 preorder. Paid $759 plus $14 plus overnight shipping. Got UPS confirmation that it will be delivered before 3 tomorrow. No regrets, yet.

Ordered a 64Gb from B&H and they don't know ****, and after the rumors of delay to Q2 and that Amazon will ship Jan 25 - Feb and that the launch in Sweden is also late Jan/Feb. I decided to buy from Ebay. but the thing that really triggered was what B&H wrote on facebook
" B&H Photo Video Pro Audio*‎Jeffrey Galles*- I think we got champagne today. In all honesty I didn't know there were two colors until a little while ago."
They don't even know what they are selling and have available for preorder on there site, First and last time I will have anything with B&H to do.
The one from Ebay is over priced but what is there to do when I don't want to wait like 1 to 2 months and by that time the Prime is "old" and there will be other products to look at.

I don't know... if you have the money, then sure, you one-percenters can do whatever the hell you want.
But, in the grand scheme of things, you'll only be using this a week or so (I seriously doubt it'll take another month) early so was it worth it? I mean, you can basically do everything on a computer. Tablets are not needed -- they're awesome to use but they don't do much in terms of productivity (especially when compared to laptops/pcs).
Also, by buying off the guys on eBay, you are perpetuating the reselling process. Do you know a big reason you didn't get your pre-order? Because some **** bought 10 of these first and resold them on eBay. Guys like these really serve no economic value. (retailers provide distribution channels and outlets, what do resellers do?)

1%? I think there are quite a few people in the 99% that can afford to pay a couple extra hundred dollars more for a tablet.
ebay is too risky.
Easy to get scammed by someone trying to capitalized on the shortage supply and high demand.
It's not worth it, I can wait a little longer till local retails began getting supplies in after x-mas.

eBay is why pre-ordering sucks. Douchbags waste inventory which ruins it for the rest of us. Really pre-orders should come with a 6 month no-resale clause with head-crushing as punishment.

You can tell your "Occupy XDA" story walking pal. A week? I'm on backorder with BB for 30 days and nobody knows what the real story is. Hell, I had a Gamestop manager tell me he overheard a conference call he wasn't supposed to be privy to and that he heard that there were only 1000 tablets shipped to the U.S. and that Gamestop got 600 of those. If tablets are not needed then why are you trolling this forum and dropping your mighty wisdom? The reason I didn't get my preorder has nothing to do with someone buying in bulk, it's because BB and the other companies got duped by ASUS just like last year. People pay for goods based on the value they perceive that said goods provide to them personally. If an individual made $250 or so off me then good, eliminating the frustration and time I put into this debacle is worth it to me.
Ebay is showing three (or so) 64GB primes. If they are truly 64GB primes, that is encouraging that they have made at least one run. Don't know why they are not available yet for sale though.

Too risky. There is a good chance the ones on eBay are from the bad wifi batch. And I saw one seller with a description that said he got several from Bestbuy.com yet he also copy and pasted the list of free games from Gamestop, including the part that says "Purchase a New Android(TM) Tablet Customized by GameStop and get free digital games!" So I wouldn't believe anything he says
I didn't pre-order from amazon.
I ordered on the 19th after cancelling my newegg pre-order.
Just got this email. Same date for my dock as well. I think these just might ship with ICS
Hello,
We now have delivery date(s) for the order you placed on December 19, 2011 (Order# 103-8767212-xxxxxxx):
"ASUS Transformer Prime TF201-B1-CG 10.1-Inch 32GB Tablet (Champagne)"
Estimated arrival date: January 26, 2012 - February 09, 2012
I got the same email. I may just give up on this tablet :-/
I really think Asus is doing some quiet back tracking and recalling a lot of these tablets that was sent to US.
This would explain why the local Best Buy's in my area were quite confident that they're shipment was going to be here by the 19th and soon changed their tune to that they didn't know how soon they would get them and that they were suppose to get them earlier but Asus pulled their shipment and they've pulled their new shipment.
I really think that story from Canada about the faulty Primes were true and Asus is being super hush about it with in regards to the US.
This is why there have been so few sold here following the launch.

I assume they figure early adopters wouldn't give a crap. Which they rarely do. I'm just glad we're going to get a next rev tablet. Maybe we'll see an improvement. Maybe they'll carve a hole out of that aluminum slab to fit a proper antenna.
Screw Amazon
OK guys, amazon messed us up big time. So what I suggest we all do is, wait for them to credit us the 10 dollar they promised and then cancel any orders you have with them and go to another place.
I mean I got my prime from gamestop last night, but still have 2 on preorder from amazon. They got the nerve to send us an email and say we can preorder again and we waited til midnight to do it, and we got the same date as people ordering much later. That's so not right. You'd think they would have it sooner. So by friday you all should be getting the 10 dollar amazon promised. If not call them and as soon as you get it. Drop the preorder.

WoW, if they don't tell you early they are not informing you and if they wait till the last minute they aren't being honest.
Curious to know, were you planning on buying 2 preorders from Amazon or were you going to cancel one or both so they would have to change their inventory allotment again for distribution of preorders? (hint about wherein lies at least part of the problem)

To answer your number 2 question. I order 2, but intend on only keeping one, whichever was available first. At that point I also rushed to preorder at other sites because I had only originaly ordered one from amazon. Seeing as how amazon canceled my order and seeing how there is delays everywhere, I decited to order from several different places hoping that I would get one of them. You see, if Amazon would keep my ONE order, I would not have to run all over the place ordering everywhere else, including reordering 2 from amazon hoping to get one. It turns out that I did get one from gamestop, which now will force me to cancel both amazon orders. You think I like buying from gamestop? I hate them, and I also hate paing taxes. I could have saved by buying from amazon, which I want to, but they have failed me and they failed again on the second preorder sending me back to the end of the line.

Man, if Best Buy actually ships these things to people who ordered today, and don't honor their offer to switch backordered Champagne models to Grey and ship those first, I'm going to be PISSED. Yes, I'm posting this in two threads, but that just shows how pissed I am. I NEVER cross-post. Or rarely.

Man, I feel for yah. Had a similar deal with Office Depot shipping out units to people that odered well after me while I was on backorder. If I cancel my order, someone else will just grab it up though.
I'd preferred the gold version, but this'll do.
ShopDiscover.com gives a 10% discount on purchases through bb.com
But it states: Offer not valid on laptops, desktops, hard drives, Geek Squad services, online photo center sales, digital downloads, long distance or internet sales, or mobile plans
Wonder if this tablet is considered part of the laptop/desktop restrictions.
This makes no sense if it is true. Mine is supposedly back ordered to mid Jan./Feb......

I've been waiting on Best Buy to update their site for the longest.
I just ordered.
12/29-01/03/2012 is the estimated arrival , my grand total was only $529.64 after tax as I was able to use my $5 dollar off Reward Zone coupon.
and the shipping is FREE
Thanks! I just ordered. I thought this christmas was gonna be a bummer, sold my og transformer last week and was going through withdrawals.
And those backordered ppl I hope they saved some for you and send em to yall first.
Is it champagne that is backordered? I wanted grey anyways so it don't matter. Just need a dock now.
Was planning on getting from gamestop so I could get free games, but I can't wait.

Glad I was able to help. I am so excited, keeping my jan. 26th amazon order for a few more days just in case. I am so glad this is almost over...
You all realize you just ordered from the company that has about 100 pages talking about how stated delivery dates are pretty much meaningless. I wouldn't cancel other pre-orders until you have a tracking number. It's hard to believe BB cleaned up their act in 72 hours.
SICK!!! OP just saved Christmas for me. Will deliver on the 27th!!!!

Curious as to why this never popped up on nowinstock.com. hmmmm. I wouldn't have ordered anywayz cause I got a bunch of BB giftcards for Christmas but still kind of odd to me. Also, sorry about my first post OP you posted the link after I opened the thread so it didn't update until after I posted about the link.
Seeing this got me excited that they might have the actual tablet in stock so I called to check and they are the same as everywhere else, back ordered and won't be getting any in for new orders until the end of January.
Yes they are sold out, and when I called I was told the eta of the next shipment is late Jan
well damnit...i placed an order online....let's see what the email says. I doubt I will have any different luck than you guys...
CDW.ca says 3 to 6 business days, so I paced an order. Then again, they say that for the actual prime, so we'll see.
Not only is this no good deal after tax and shipping but it will not ship till late jan at the earliest
Don't know what to tell you guys...I got an email saying it shipped...I have a UPS tracking number and everything. Will update you if i get anything else saying canceled...for now, it is scheduled to deliver to be this Friday....keeping my fingers crossed

First-world problems
Interesting... I put my order in at CDW for a "Champagne Gold" (looks aluminum-colored, aka silvery white-grey, to me) 32GB Transformer Prime and dock on 12/2, and was initially told by my account manager that the tablet was backordered until Feb. 1st, and the dock was backordered until Jan. 3rd. I was pleasantly surprised to receive the tablet last Friday, but the dock is now listed as backordered until Jan. 25th.
Gah, just as I was typing this, one of the accountants stopped by with a an asset tag (a sticker that has to be placed on all company property valued at over $100) that I had to put on the back of my tablet. The concentric brushed metal pattern is ruined! Oh Transformer, what man would want you now?!?
I made an offer, but he will probably say no cause I am not paying $300 for a $150 dock lol
Why don't you guys just pre-order from Gamestop.com, that's what I did.
I wouldn't dare waste time on ebay when dealing something as precious as this.
old used video game sure, but brand new tablet accessory that's a hot seller. Ebay is too risky.
