Ridiculous. I'm not even counting on getting one till December or January or maybe later at this point.

How do they not have enough phones to sell?

I'm sorry that I blinked my eyes.

It's being listed for in-store availability Nov 11th here in Scandinavia, not sure I should get my hopes up...

It's like Google watched the entire One+ fiasco that's occurred over the past few months and said, 'Yeah, let's doing it that!'. Because at this point I think it was easier to get a OnePlus One.

I don't mind waiting a bit any way. I don't like buying a phone without at least screen protector being available.

Do you have to pay shipping with the Play Store?

I think it is free 2 day shipping. I opted for 1 day at $18

Cause I need to have it "now"! I always pay for 1 day shipping with amazon prime too =/

Lol, ...I'm just glad I have patience with these things. Its expensive enough without adding high shipping costs just to get it a day sooner.
I look forward to reviews. ....though its still too big IMO.

UK Price £499 for 32GB and £549 for 64GB.

Yep.

Was hoping for maybe £50 off that, but I don't think that's too unreasonable.

The 64gb is still £150 cheaper than the iPhone 6 Plus 64gb.

And they are offering 6 months free of Play Music, so that's £60 of benefits (that I would actually use).

Might just pull the trigger on it if reviews are good.

Yeah its near enough the going rate for an android flagship phablet, one plus one withstanding of course.

I'm fairly confident this is going to be a beast of a phone going by early whispers. i normally would wait a month or two before pulling the trigger on a new phone but its not completely out the realm of possibility that Google is supplying one per country so we might need to get in fast on this one.

Although i'm not certain i'll be getting it. trying to decide between this and the 6+ and finding it difficult to pick between the two. A part of me wants to miss the opportunity to pre order to make my decision easier.

Well the US is their main market. It seems like the carriers are getting the bulk of the supply. I would seriously estimate around 1,000 orders have been placed through the play store. This is the type of phone people on forums get and post about. There have been very few people stating they got an order in.

So 1 per country sounds right :p

Your're on.

A thought a occurred, what if some lucky sod gets the leg up on us while we're duking it out?

I think we're going to need a time limit.

You're probably right you know!

Arm wrestle! That way our other hands can keep tapping Refresh.

Pretty sure I'm going to pre-order a Nexus 6.

According to Android Police, via an internal T-mobile memo, it seems only a couple of stores will have the Nexus 6 in stock.

Hopefully one of the four T-mo stores by me will have a demo unit so I can at least hold the device in my hand.

Man I thought the iPhone 6 & 6+ launch were a mess. I still think I am lucky for get the 6+, but man Google just can't get their crap together. I think you are very lucky to have gotten the N6. Seems stock will be a problem for a while.

Via Droid Life and a poster on the XDA forums, there's a list of the T-mobiles stores that will have the Nexus 6 in stock and the demo units. It's suggested you still call your local store because you never know.

Also, according to Android Authority, Sprint will be getting the 32GB Midnight blue Nexus.

Maybe most of the stock went to AT&T and Verizon, they do have a lot more customers than T-mo or Sprint.
