Pre-order arrivals!? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Did anyone who pre-ordered the gs3 get theirs yet? Did anyone get shipping info or a tracking number yet? I'm so excited but I have not got anything yet. Hope we all get them shipped to us b4 apple gets their way!

THAT was your first post in two years?
But seriously, pre-orders have not shipped, AT&T may possibly be the first out the gate with orders shipping "on or before June 21st," which is still over a week away, champ....

Actually its arriving on or before the 21st. Ship date is the 18th.

I know... OP was not specific at all what he's referring too. I've had mine for two weeks.
Oh yeah and OP.. there's 4 threads discussing pre-orders. Please search before posting a new thread. It helps to keep our forums clean and easier to find stuff.

Wow I'm just wondering! Geezum! We can't have 2 threads for newegg but can have 7 for amazon! 5 for bestbuy 3 for staples ect.
So if anyone has any new info (when they plan to receive their shipment!) Let me know!

Hmm...
Just checked, New-egg.com US website still showing ETA of 12/27- They are a major electronics e-tailer here in the US, so I am "cautiously optimistic" that something may change and they receive stock and ship at or around the same time as Best-Buy on 12/18. They haven't sent any e-mails or any updates since they changed the original ship date from 12/8 to 12/27..... Just a ray of hope is all I have left to cling to..... what has become of me??? I ask myself- will my prime ever arrive to save the day???

Transcript from Live Chat with Newegg Rep 12/15/11
My Transcript from Live Chat with Newegg Rep on 12/15/11:
( I may have slightly exaggerated ship date from best buy just to see what they would say)
Victor: Hi, my name is Victor. How may I help you?
ME: Asking for update on my pre-order status... any update on when this item will ship from newegg???
ME: Best-Buy has notified they will be shipping this item before the end of the week, and that Asus will have stock available for all supply chains this week- any updated information will be appreciated on the ETA of shipping on my preorder of this item.- Thank you
Victor: I'd be happy to help you with that. May I please have a moment to look into this for you?
ME: sure , thank you very much
Victor: You are welcome.
Victor: Thank you very much for holding. I show the ETA is 12/27/2011, once the item was released the pre-order will transfer to a normal order to process.
ME: is this ETA set in stone for pre-orders, or is there a possibility it may ship sooner if stock arrives?
Victor: Its an ETA of release date. Once the item release, the pre-order will transfer to normal order to process
ME: thank you for your time- I appreciate the support, I will end the session.
* I was surprised not to get anything else... He did say it was an ETA, so take this as you will.
Given that Newegg posted the 12/27 ETA over a week ago when it seemed that no retailer had any idea when they'd be arriving, I don't see how the date could be set in stone. It's unfortunate that no one at customer service has any idea what's going on, but since I haven't heard that date from any other seller, I'm assuming it's pretty meaningless. Just wish I knew whether there's any chance we'll get them before Xmas.
I think we should call their warehouse
Here is the number for their south California warehouse as they are the only ones listed as a will call pickup warehouse

Someone please call

You guys think bestbuy will do a feb 17th release?

For who preorders with them I heard AT&T will do it I am hoping bestbuy follows suit as well
Pretty sure a BB employee somewhere on here said it's def the 19th
i just asked a BB employee and they confirmed the 19th.

so he said the preorders will be given on the 19th or the phone will be released on the 19th maybe he was confused....i hope
Fairly certain pre orders are also on the 19th.

Preorders ship on the 19th and will be available for in store pickup on the 19th if you reserve it in store

If you think about it.... Best buy is offering the case and $50 most likely because people will not get them early and that's their way of keeping up with att sending them out on the 17th
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using xda premium
Best Buy can not release them before the 19th because of their contract to sell AT&T phones I don't think their system will allow them to be sold (the stock may come in on the 17th but their system has no way to sell the inventory until the 19th when the system is updated) as far as the gift card this is going on til the end of the year on any carrier and if successful I'm pretty sure they will run it through 2013
I went there yesterday to preorder and see if they could get it to me by the 17th and they said no it still would be on the 19th.
BBYM employee here. Hard street date is the 19th and they will not be sold or shipped until then

mine says awaiting inventory as well but i clicked on est delivery date and says this
We apologize for the inconvenience, but the phone you ordered is extremely popular.
We receive shipments of additional phones daily and will fulfill out-of-stock orders in the order in which they were received.
Once your order is ready to ship, we will send you an email with your shipping details and update this site.
Special Note for Preorders:
If you placed an order for a device that is currently in preorder, we will begin shipping them in the order they were received as soon as we are authorized to release the devices.
For assistance, please contact us:
ordered mine 5/8/12
Mine says that too. All that means is that they will ship the phones when they're authorized to do so.

The ones saying 2-3 weeks have not eve been validated yet. So those are the back ordered or delayed orders.
Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk 2 Beta-6
I think this indicates that Sprint sold a lot.more phones than anticipated and had to cut wirefly short to meet their own obligation. Wirefly orderers should have been concerned when they hit the order button but they should especially be concerned about the s 4 shortage.

Thanks for pre-ordering. You are one step closer to getting your phone. Keep an eye out for a shipping email with your tracking information. We will do our best to get it to you before others get a glimpse on Friday, May 18. For questions, visit sprint.com/preorder.

My wife wanted the phone and we had one waiting for her at a corporate store. Just walked into best buy to BS around. Guy said he had them stocked for preorder, but had more devices than preorders.
Said to do preorder and I may get one today. So I did the preorder, walked around store and got email stating it was confirmed, then not 5 minutes more of walking around I got email saying it was ready to be picked up. Told him I got email and it was a done deal. Walked out with it.
No one that preordered from there hadn't come to pick theirs up yet. She was first person to get from that particular store.

Inventory allowing... pre orders made before 5/21 are hitting stores today and tomm. If you pre ordered after the 21st you will get next shipment. Noone is able to walk in and buy... So your pre order is being fulfilled in order it was placed... What's the problem?

yea im talking best buy
i put in a pre-order with best buy today after work and i got the $50 gift card deal
As I stated earlier. I went in and got my wife one today. Preordered, got confirmation, and then got email that phone was ready to be picked up within minutes. Walked right out with it.
Could it be the quantities that they received? I'm in north Dallas.

Some stores received more than the amount pre orders I'm sure. Or pre orders that canceled.

Verizon is shipping pre-orders out tomorrow!

Good news all, Verizon is going to ship out the pre-orders tomorrow. I was on the phone with one of the rep and they said it will ship tomorrow and that my credit card will be changed either tonight or tomorrow morning. An hour later I checked my bank account and what do you know they changed my credit card already. Well as I always say it's about time!

whatever happens - this is the last round of early shipping specuation :highfive:
So my question, regardless if it ships 10/8 or 10/10: I billed to my account. So I am expected to pay the balance by the next billing cycle, correct?
Well they told me that I would have it in my hands on the 10th that means it would ship on the 8th. YAY!!!!!!!

Normally they do for phone shipments as it's an insured shipment. Some Fedex drivers will let someone else sign if they know the people in the household.
Leave a note(no pun intended) for the driver with the tracking number, your name and signature, never had a problem. They take the note and leave my package.
