Due to some technical problem, we were unable to update the shipping time frame on the order/account level page.

Rest assured, the order has already been shipped and you will receive it soon with in few days. You will not loose the rebate offer also.


Check if they charged your cc. if not, its just a Mind game.

After returning to the order summary however my shipment has now shifted to an estimated deliver date of 12/7!

This seems to be in line with phase315's experience (looking back through posts it looks like their order was a few days before mine and now get the same date after actually changing shipping), so I wonder if those of us seeing the dreaded "after the 25th" line are seeing a generic cached page from Amazon, and modifying your order in anyway (or even just clicking the edit shipping button) is forcing a refresh on the main order page.

Now the real question is if this new shipping date has any real implications, or if this is just another placeholder.

Tried that, still says after December 25th. I ordered 11/20, and my card still hasn't been charged.

Thanks, clicking on "Change" for the Shipping Speed resulted in an update to the "Shipping estimate" date. The "shipping after Dec 25th" message was replaced by 12/4/09 and a "delivery estimate: December 9, 2009 - December 10, 2009" now shows in "When will your items arrive".

Ordered 11-20 w/ free Super Saver shipping

I'll update tomorrow if the above comes true.

I don't want to touch anything. Mine still says after dec 25th, but the "team leader" i spoke to told me that it went out today...

Laughing Man 2009-12-04 01:37

Re: N900 from Amazon: deals, availability, shipping status
 
Hmm, so now it says (for me)

Not Yet Shipped:
1 item - delivery estimate: December 9, 2009 - December 10, 2009

Though it's still not yet shipped (I wonder why people who ordered after me have gotten the device shipped status).

Edit: WOWZA, look at the new price on Amazon for the n900. $769.95 :eek::eek::eek:

amazonhater 2009-12-04 01:42

Re: N900 from Amazon: deals, availability, shipping status
 
i wonder if changing the shipping speed pushes you to the back of the list.
OMG, i jus did that today.
No No No No No No No No!!!!!

kev30 2009-12-04 01:43

Re: N900 from Amazon: deals, availability, shipping status
 
lol @ 769.95 but thats from a 3rd party seller and not amazon.

No No No No No No No No!!!!!

I ended up changing my shipping to 1 day Prime after my last update and I'm still set for the 7th, so I wouldn't worry. I'm glad to see that changing the shipping method triggered an updated ETA for someone else, but the fact that it hasn't worked for others leads me to believe that Amazon might be working on their pre-orders for a while still, and I'm not holding out for a delivery on the 7th...

And for a moment of levity in this thread full of shopping cart black magic and whinging, remember this is just another consumer device.

Re: N900 from Amazon: deals, availability, shipping status
 
it doesnt work for me at all. I changed the shipping method many times but everything still the same. Oh mine is 11/23 by the way.And Amazon has also removed their N900 from the list now. And they linked the third party to their original listing.

Their old N900 listing have to enter the post code. lol

Is it possible that since you changed the shipping method many time that it pushed you back?

NO idea.. it can't be the case though. So far one person confirmed that he ordered on the 21/11 last month got the confirmation

Biggest fear of my life!! did any one of the guys who received a shipping conformation change (as in actually change, not refresh or sth) their shipping method at ANY time?

YES!

Just got the email from Amazon:

Ordered Nov 21... estimated delivery Dec 08.

sony123 2009-12-04 04:50

Re: N900 from Amazon: deals, availability, shipping status
 
Ordered on Nov 20, also got email confirmation from Amazon and the estimated delivery date is Dec 8.

I had secretly hoped that Amazon would miss the rebate deadline so I could get rebate from Amazon instead of having to go through the hassle and wait for it to be mailed back....

PS. Item not yet shipped on order status

TheLongshot 2009-12-04 04:51

Re: N900 from Amazon: deals, availability, shipping status
 
My order on Nov 19th has a delivery date:

Dec 18th-28th.

Yes, mine is on the slow boat. No news from Dell yet.

Edit: going to the web site, they list Dec 11th as the shipment date estimate. I guess Dell has that long to ship.

janszoon 2009-12-04 04:53

Re: N900 from Amazon: deals, availability, shipping status
 
the irony of it all, just as soon as my order with Nokia ships, I get the email from Amazon just now "Estimated delivery day - 9 Dec" I ordered 22 Nov. Well, hope that means one of you pops up the list when I cancel tonight....or should I keep it and see if someone is willing to 'up the ante' :-)

I called Amazon. They said that If I signed up for and upgraded to Amazon Prime for 2day shipping from the free 5-9day shipping it would bump me to the back of the pre-order line!

Yikes! Me no touchy.

I just changed the shipping online (through the invoice) seemed to bump my shipping up. No need to call the CSR?

At 10:38 tonight (Central Standard Time), I got an email from Amazon:
------------------------------------
Hello from Amazon.com.
We now have delivery date(s) for the order you placed on November 20 2009
(description of N900 phone omitted for brevity)
Estimated arrival date: December 09 2009
(stuff omitted about canceling the order, contacting Amazon, Etc.)
------------------------------------
It's interesting to me that they emailed me so late at night. They are moving right along because earlier tonight I still had the usual "Delivery after the 25th of December". I'm beginning to believe they might just clear out their order backlog before the end of December. My 20th of November order was just thirteen days ago.

23rd and 25th of November. They are no confirmed for delivery on December 9th.

Also one more from Dell got shipped today. Delivery confirmed for monday. Was ordered 25-27th of November.

I´ve got some family members who like mine and want some for themselves :)

So I´ve ordered 5 total, in 5 orders. 3 from Dell and 2 from Amazon. They´ve all been charged and are on their way.

Re: N900 from Amazon: deals, availability, shipping status
 
I ordered from Amazon on 2 Dec around mid-day. A day later, the estimated delivery date still showed "after 25 Dec." I e-mailed Amazon Customer Svs this afternoon (3 Dec) asking if that was accurate (with the polite threat that I may cancel my Amazon order and switch to Nokia direct if that was their real expectation).
Got a prompt reply saying "Sorry, but we are out of stock. We'll update your status as soon as we get more in." I also got a "$10 promotional certificate" for my trouble. Pretty nice customer service if you ask me...
Funny thing is, just less than 4 hours later (after 10pm Central), my order status got updated. Amazon tells me to expect delivery by 9 Dec. With my requested 2-day shipping, that means they expect to ship my order on Monday, 7 Dec.
I'll be happy if that's the way it plays out!

P.S. No credit card charge yet.

*** UPDATE = Amazon Delay ***

On 8 Dec, Amazon updated the order status again, delaying expected delivery back to 15 Dec (from 9 Dec). The update said:
WHY WAS MY ORDER DELAYED?
While we do our best to adhere to our delivery estimates, our inventory is constantly changing based on information we receive directly from our suppliers. Occasionally, unexpected fluctuations in supply, delays during shipping, or changes in release dates for new products will add time to our original delivery estimate.

:(
*** UPDATE: Amazon Delay Part Deux ***

On 12 Dec, they delayed again, this time asking me to approve of their plan to deliver by 17 Dec. We're having some fun now! :eek:
*** UPDATE: Amazon Delay Part San ***

On 16 Dec, Amazon delayed again...to 23 Dec now. My Amazon price ($450-50 rebate) is $50 better than other sources, so I'm happier waiting than going elsewhere. I WANT this phone ASAP--I don't NEED this phone ASAP! :mad:
*** UPDATE: They shipped it ***
@6pm on Fri, 18th. With 2-day shipping, they say it will arrive Tues, 22nd. :D
