New X orders now will not ship until the 18th.. Yeah right

I know my X is on the way and I shouldn't complain.

BUT...if FedEX got it Sunday. Monday would be Day 1, Tuesday would be day 2, Wednesday would be day 3. So why is my 2 day shipping arriving on Wednesday.

Your location is located more then 25miles from a centralized Fedx Hub which adds an extra day. We used to use FedX over the post office because 2day priority was actually 2 or 3 then FedX started doing it. It kinda sucks but I understand why.
 
FYI, if your FedEx tracking info shows that it gets to your town one afternoon, but it's too late to make the delivery that afternoon, don't think that you can just drop by FedEx and pick it up. The FedEx CS agent that I talked to this afternoon told me that Verizon has instructed FedEx not to allow packages to be picked up from the FedEx facility until after the first attempted delivery. So, my DX is less than 10 miles from where I'm sitting, but I can't have it until after work tomorrow.

I've got a whole bucket of FAIL here with Verizon's name on it.
 
Ordered on the 18th.

Shipping on the 23rd.

Arrival on the 25th.

I am getting it about a week earlier than I expected. Very happy. I wonder if they got a lot in today or something? Seems like a lot of shipping notices.

I got the fedex notice about four hours earlier than the verizon e-mail.

I called fedex to see if I could upgrade to overnight or pickup at the local hub and they said no to both. Verizon has mandated no shipping upgrades and no pick-up until after an attempted delivery.
 
I just picked up my Droid X from Fed Ex...yay!

Ordered 9th by phone. Delivered 8/23/10. Fed Ex confirmation says delivered from Memphis, but the Fed Ex Box says shipped from Ft. Worth, Texas...hmmm. FYI I'm in Maryland.
 
In case anyone's curious my email that came says (minus omissions):

Have seen reports of people that ordered on 17th, and even the 18th have received shipping notices......

Anyone that ordered before then not received notices? 13th or before?

Just curious...

ordered the 18th and not shipping until the 31st...we'll see.:icon_evil:
 
I ordered mine in the store on the 17th as well and was told it will ship on the 31st and arrive on Sept 2nd.

What gives?

I was also told that I would not get an email notification since I ordered through the store vs. online.

Did they tell you this in the store or did you get an actual tracking number? They told me it would be shipped by the 30th when I ordered in the store, so it's coming earlier than they said.

In the store, so maybe there is hope.

I am going out of town the day after the estimated arrival date and it would be nice to have it with me.

Is there any rhyme or reason to the way they are fulfilling these orders?
It sure doesn't seem like it.

I live in toledo, ohio. I ordered my droid x at the verizon store at the mall on August 9th. They told me it would ship the 25th and delievered by the 27th. I never got any tracking number or notification email. So i was content with waiting. Im glad to say i received mine today the 23th around 2pm.

So basically just be patient. If you didn't get a tracking number don't worry not everyone gets them.
