Are QB XL 128s shipping sooner that VS XL 128s ordered on Black Friday?

I have been reading hopeful posts from lucky customers who ordered on Black Friday weekend, had a ship date of 1/6 and then received the dreaded 3/3 or 3/10 email, who earlier this week received tracking numbers and by now are likely receiving their phones.

I am in the category above, ordered 2 Pixel XL 128gb Very Silver on 11/26. Had a ship date of 1/6 and later that day received the new ship date of 3/3. My preorder status changed to order yesterday, but I have not received a tracking number.

My question, is of those lucky few who have been receiving their shipments, were they the Quite Black? I have read where supposedly there is a higher demand for the Very Silver, thus the blacks are shipping sooner than the silver.

Has anyone from the Black Friday order period received their XL 128gb Very Silver?

When I questioned a CS rep about having 2 different shipping dates I was told the Silver was set for the 3rd while the black for the 10th. Hope that helps.

I too received the email saying it got pushed to March, but then I got a tracking number the same day. Received my QB 128 yesterday from the Black Friday Deal.

Trizzyx, when did you order yours? Was it on the 25th?

I was told by a CSR. that everyone is getting them in order of when they ordered them. Doesn't matter the color. I said some people who had a delivery date of March were now getting them. He said it wasn't true I ordered QS 128gb pixel XL. Still waiting

I was told the same thing Bonnie 2251. I've seen people on here and on reddit that ordered the same day as me getting tracking numbers this week or actually getting their phones delivered this week and when I ask Verizon about it and try to get an idea of where I stand in line all they say is "your shipment is scheduled for 3/10" and "we don't have that information." If they're delivering them in the order they were received how can they not be able to tell someone how many people they are behind? I think it's a total [Removed]on when anybody is getting their phones. [Removed]

Just received another "great taste" email showing my 3/3 date moved to 1/31. Anyone else get the same?BTW, my order date was 11/26 for two XL VS 128s.

RedZoneOS

I ordered 3 phones. 1 QB on Thursday. 1QB and 1 VS on friday.

All three were postponed until march.

Then I ended up getting the thursday QB delivered (5 days ago ish)

Today I got an email that the friday QB shipping date was changed to 1/31.

No word on the VS

Just got the same email. I ordeed a 128 XL in both Black and Silver on 11/25. Fingers crossed this is all on the up and up.

You motivated me to take a closer look.

The order number I received today matches nothing in my Verizon pending orders list.

It's definitely a legit email and not a scam though because it takes me to my actual orders page with the correct order numbers listed.

*sigh* real email, but looks like also a real ball drop again on the dates.. who knows at this point. Maybe I'll get a shipping confirmation tomorrow... Maybe I'll get it when the pixel XL 4 gets released...

Bonnie2251

I ordered on Nov 25. Delivery date of Jan 6 new email delivery date of March 3 Today I received the good taste email date changed to Jan 31. No tracking number yet.It also looks like people who ordered on Nov 26 have received their phones so I don't believe they are going in order. I think what is available.

RedZoneOS

So... got a shipping confirmation today on my second black pixel xl 128gb.

I also got a new expected shipping date email of 1/24 which I presume is the 3rd and final phone in my order (silver pixel xl 128gb). Since none of the order numbers match the website I cannot confirm.

2 things are abundantly clear:

1. Phones are shipping much faster then the original ball drop email that said March. Great news for those still waiting!!

2. Verizon is clearly incompetent logistically so as feedback for the company I have to suggest they never ever again send out emails with revised shipping dates that are so grossly inaccurate... a simple "hey we are working on it" is better then the nonsense I've been receiving in the past weeks.

So, I also ordered the XL 128gb in VS on 11/25 with a 1/6 shipping date. Called twice that day and of course, the rep knew nothing about a tracking number. They really like to keep their CS reps ignorant for plausible deniability. That night, got my "good taste" email saying it was pushed back to 3/3. Then I called them 2 days ago to see if there were any updates. Again, CS had no knowledge. That night, I got another "great taste" email saying the new ship date will be 1/31. Next day, another "great taste" email saying 1/24, but when I look on my account, the info isn't there and it still says "processing" with no estimated ship date. I honestly don't even know if I should believe them. I'm not holding my breath. If others who ordered the same day have received theirs, there is no excuse for waiting longer. My current phone is super slow. I would really have liked to have received my new phone before coming back to work from vacation so I could set it up, learn it and enjoy it. Verizon totally dropped the ball and won't do anything to make it up, unless you count the "Oops! Our bad" [Removed]

Rainy1216,

I'm in the same boat. Ordered the same phone XL 128 silver, two of them on 11/26. Got the 1/24 ship date via email, but order status says "processing, check back later". Really hoping Google gets their production line problems fixed soon, so Verizon can deliver the goods.

Black Friday orders of XLs are flowing. Received my 2 tracking #s today. Status shows shipped and FedEx shows picked up. Delivery on 1/24! Woo Hoo. Good luck all. My original order was Black Friday weekend 11/26.

Rainy1216

Yup! Just got my tracking number today. Ordered black Friday, supposed to arrive 1/24. I'm a little annoyed that VZW didn't spring for express shipping. It's the least they could do for being almost 3 weeks late. But, happy to at least get it now than March.

Bonnie2251

I finally got my tracking number today also its supposed to arrive on 1-24. Even though Verizon representatives insist it's 1-31 because they can't see the email that they sent me.

Ordered QB 128gb the last day of the BF deal for trade-ins, 11/28, and since then it had said my ship date was going to be 1/13. That day has passed an no communication at all. I contacted VZW chat and they said that there was some issue about a shipment and had no information on when I'd be getting the phone, not even an estimate.

They'll submit a ticket though. Thanks VZW

Hang in there. I ordered 2 XL VS 128s on 11/26. Got my tracking numbers

yesterday. Delivery for 1/24. That means they're still working through the

backlog of BF orders. Yours is just a few days away.

Skeven

Hope so, contacted CS again and of course now I get an estimated ship date now that I'm upset about the day and lack of communication. February 28th...

For VZW's sake I hope it's sooner. I have no issue ordering the phone unlocked directly from Google and moving my 15 year old account to another network if the deal is right. No deal is worth this long of a wait.

Ordered black friday weekend, got 1/6, then 3/3 delivery dates, surprise,-Got phone on 1/24!
