Nexus 4 $299/$349 @ Google play **LIVE NOW**

Boom! Got the 16gb version. It probably has something to do with the fact that so many people are adding it to the cart and removing from the available number of orders. Refreshing the page a few times made the "Add to cart" button appear.

Seems to be toggling between add to cart and notify me after a few refreshes, for both 8 and 16. Google Play seems to be an afterthought for Google.

Yeah, for me too. If you see it say Add to Cart, proceed really quickly and you should be able to order. I got my 16GB ordered on my second try. I thought I had missed my chance since I got up late today, glad I decided to check back again.

Was able to finally get one after multiple page refreshes, and a few more errors once I had it added to the cart.

Was the bumper accessory ever in stock today, or has it always shown 'coming soon'?

I wonder if the 16 GB will be in stock again

Make sure all of your details are entered into Google Wallet PRIOR to continuing your purchase in the shopping cart. I didn't at first and Google had trouble entering in new addresses and whatnot, had to start my whole process over.

Looks like it's dead now. No matter how I refresh it, it shows "Notify Me" all the times.

Try without clicking refresh (or F5).

Go to the page for the 8GB or the 16GB and then just keep clicking the different 8GB or 16GB option underneath the pic of the phone (right underneath "Choose Another Nexus 4").

Refreshing for some reason didn't work, but clicking these links is still getting me some "Add to Cart" buttons now.

I just got a 16GB. Hit shift-refresh until you see add to cart, then completed process, and got order confirmation email.

If you are using Firefox, try using Chrome. When I switched, I finally got a refresh that went all the way through.

Why doesn't Google use a pre-order system to avoid such pathetic situation?

Why are we all sitting around hitting a refresh button over and over again like trained laboratory chimpanzees?

Pathetic. (Myself included.)

Got it!

i just picked up a 16gb. f5 for about 45 seconds and got it! now i gotta get rid of the 8gb!

it isnt very logical but maybe it has something to do with the fact that i registered. did those that are having issues register their email?

You might be right. I didn't want to register, but I couldn't process an order that way. The very first time I agreed to register, I finally was able to process an order.

Got a 16GB .. after about what felt like a million F5s

Hopefully eBay servers can handle most of their new posts today/tonight.

I am not trusting this, because whenever it says I have one in my cart (after hitting F5 a thousand times), the next page says there was an error and my cart is empty... then, F5 a thousand times again... rinse, repeat. There is something metaphorical going on here.

The key is to be logged into your google account prior to adding to your cart. Also as soon as the the add to cart box appears you need to click it (I mean immediately), this is what I did I was able to score two phones.

Thanks to both of you.

Got one. Wanted to get two, but it seems they'll only let you get order one at a time. Guess I'll let the wife have this one and get mine later.

Just adding it to your cart is not enough - it doesn't "stick" until you click on "Proceed" .. so if you are trying to change the quantity, unchecking the link to Google account box, etc - you are going to miss out. So you need not only to Add It to your cart, but then immediately hit Proceed to checkout fully.

Yeah, on the previous times I got the screen, I had tried to change quantity, but it only had 0 and 1 as options, and by the time I clicked Proceed, it was gone. This time, I clicked straight through: Add to Cart, Proceed, done.

I just got a 16gb added to cart and purchased with a receipt email sent to me. I did the f5 trick as well, probably about 1,000 times. I had to change my card information as well. I don't think I've ever try to key in my credit card information so quickly before, but luckily it worked.
