Maybe they read these forums....

A smart distributor would!

well the optimist in me says that's just because its todays date and the status still back ordered. Or course the pessimist in me says that that today then tried to order more only to find them already backorder by the vendor... :-(


Folks,
here is my deliria....Current our current ATT bill (3 lines, me, wifey and jr) are paying about 190 per month. We have an old plan with 500 minutes, plus unlimited text and data plans on all 3 lines include one that has a grand fathered unlimited plan. That is way too much. We have only about 4 more months on our contact (we renewed the contract to get a new phone for our son about 17 months ago). Both my wife and I have Galxy Notes (original versions). My plan was to move over to T-mobile an cut our bill down to about 100 buck and get new phones (T-Mobile will pay the ETF too). For wifey/Jr they can get a current galaxy. But I wanted the Lumina 1520 for myself I don't want to go to a smaller phone (I had the dell 5" streak before the Galaxy Note so again going smaller just not an option). But as we all know its dam near impossible to get a 1520.3 RM-938 that will work on T-Mobile with paying premium. I thought about maybe getting T-Mobile family plan for them, at the cost of 80 a month, then getting AIO wireless and an ATT version of the 1520. That would bring are bill to about 125 (with out tax). That is still cheaper than I am paying now but not as cheap as having everything on T-Mobile. Wireless Qi charging is not that important to me. So with my next ATT bill due soon...would you stay and wait for the unicorn...hoping the B&H will ship soon...or would you go with hybrid plan with T-Mobile/AIO? Or should I just man up...get a "temp" phone until the 1520.3 can be found easily? What to do..what to do....

Thanks for "listening" to me!

Sad thing I just found out (from a phone call) is that it may take 7-10 business days for me to get it ( I wanted to try and change my shipping to next day because something was coming up that I wanted the better camera for). Good thing I still have my 925 but would love to have the extra memory for recording the whole event

Joe, I wrote you a long reply but it wont upload. Short reply: Get a 938 and go TMo

Is that because you choose that shipping length?
I have a tight schedule for a possible US pickup but this drop shipping looks too sketch.

thanks for effort and the feedback I am encourage by your last update..so maybe the optimist in me was not that far off

 

[dclaryjr]

I wonder if expedited shipping is even an option if it's being drop shipped. At any rate, I'll be happy just to have a tracking number. At that point I'll order a case and a charging pad (or two).

Boo yeah. I just got an email also for a Yellow RM-938. Estimated shipping time 6/2/2014.

 

[mister2d]

That's sweet, a drop ship. Maybe you'll get an extra goodie. I was happy just to get some Nokia ear buds with my 1520.3. I don't think the carrier (AT&T) version comes with any.

 

[AlexFirth91]

Hopefully this is a sign Negri will get the 1520.3 in as well, been waiting over a month now.

View attachment 67658Here's hoping this date in red is significant.

Finally! I noticed I received a text about my credit card being charged so then I checked my email and see I received the same one. I was hoping I could get it in one day since I'm only 30 minutes from B&H but the drop shipment has me wondering how long its really going to take.

Wrong thread.

Well bummer...no update in my order from B&H yet. Hopefully I will hear something soon. And hopefully those that have gotten an update will get a tracking number to indicate its on its way!

 

[Bruce Carroll]

I am thinking I won't get a tracking # until June 2.

 

[jimjfletcher]

Yesterday I cancelled my 5/9 backorder with Negri because they wouldn't price match B&H. My current order with B&H is "New Order Processing." Hopefully there's adequate stock in the new batch for me!

My status now says "Drop ship order sent to vendor". Hopefully yours will update to say the same!
