I spoke to a Verizon Rep an hour ago on the phone as my order is not even showing on my account but is still active from what they told me. then I was told google sent a email this morning to Verizon telling them all shipments minus the 32gb are delayed till the 18th.

I don't know if this is just smoke they are blowing due to over selling the phone as this is the only mention ive seen online about this online. But I made my order on the 4th, the day the phone opened for preorder.

but I needed this phone as I had to return the note 7, yet I was basically told "yaaaaaa, its the 18th now, anything else you need?"
