Where Did You (or plan to) Order Your Nexus 7?  Google Play?  GameStop?  Perhaps you plan on going through Staples?  Waiting for more retail or online outlets to get the Nexus 7?  Let us know where you're getting yours!

Ordered mine the first day available on Google Play (fingers crossed).  Noticed Nexus 7 popping up everywhere on internet (Fry's, Future Shop, etc) priced from $249 (16g)  all the way to $499!  All with varied delivery dates, most later.

Who's selling it for $499?  That's nuts!

Maybe a typo?  But the 8g is $399.  Thought it was overseas, but it's Chicago!  Hope they aren't planning on selling a bunch.

Google Play two days ago.  The $25 credit they give you covered my tax and shipping so I'm a happy camper.

I pre-ordered yesterday in-store at EB Games (Australia). It has a release date of 27th July here, so I will walk in and pick it up that day.

Ordered mine on Google Play on July 29th, so a couple of days after launch.  So maybe next week I'll get it.

Ordered from Google play. Just went to Sam's Club today and bought it. My card doesn't have the funds for the pre-order now. I couldn't wait. I'm a crackhead.

You just couldn't wait could you?  :-)    Can't you just refuse shipment when you get the other one (if you get it)?

I heard something about Amazon deciding if they want to carry it or not. Anyone hear what they have decided yet?

It would be strange, since they are suppose to be coming out with their new Kindle.  But Amazon isn't really a hardware supplier, more software oriented,so might bring them more subscribers.

My initial plan was to pre order from Future Shop but they don't offer store pick up. Which means more days of waiting. Then I found out that Staples was taking pre orders with store pickup. So last Friday I decided to go to the nearest Staples to pre order when the manager told me that he had one in the box for sale! So I bought it! Friday the 13th was a lucky day for me  :)

Purchased mine at Sears.  Luckily they had (only) one in stock. 
They agreed to a 60-day no-fee return if not satisfied!
