I was able to snag 7 Voyagers, but they sold out in under a minute, anybody else grab any for your stores?

Ditto. I even got kicked out of the system once and had to log-in again. I really hope that they get more in later, but I'm not holding my breath.

My rep said that there was only 1,000 available for the whole country, and that no more would be in till next week, same with the Venus (which I completely forgot about and didnt remember to order any)

I was able to order a whopping 7 of the Venus' before they ran out. I didn't think that would have been that hard to get, but obviously I was wrong.

I have been guaranteed by my account manager that we won't see any voyagers in the midwest region until late next week, and those quantities will be very limited. This morning at about 10:30 central time the venus became available for about 30 seconds. I was able to snag a few to get through the holiday weekend, but same thing there. After that quick stock, good luck getting your hands on one.

On a positive note - I just got in the belt clips for the Voyager & Venus that I ordered thinking that I wouldn't have a problem getting the phones. I'm guessing that they probably won't sell too well yet!!!!! 😁

interesting that you are having problems getting the venus to sell. I wandered into vzw store in north ga about 2:00 Monday afternoon. I was the first to ask about the venus--didn't even have one out on the floor yet..... 🙄

said they had a gracious plenty of voyagers for sell on wed....... 😲

Same here I'm in the midwest also...They are saying maybe even longer now in the email I got today. I'm glad I ordered mine early. But I hope to get some in stock in the next 2 weeks.

Lol!!! The venus is a great phone and it is being ignored. Have you seen any commercials about it?

I think it is pretty unlikely that there were only 1000 available for indirects, that would be less than 1 per store. I saw about 8000 on hand for the South area direct fill inventory last week, but those might go to preorders, and I havent checked after then to see if the number went up.

It would really suck if the indirects got screwed out of the phone yet we had a ton for call in orders 😛



and that reminds me.. those go on sales tomorrow.. (I guess today at this point).. I so dont want to go to work 😛 about 20% of my calls on monday and tuesday were people asking about the voyager 😢 I hate SED ordering

I think there might have only been a small amount avail since we were in there right at 6am (on the dot) and by the time we submitted the order (about 6:01) they were already sold out, so we didn't get any 😡 . Not so happy about that espically since every direct has them and you have so many for online and telesales. Oh yeah and I'm sure Best Buy, Circut City and Walmart have them too. It really sucks being the "red headed step child" of Verizon!

Are there any indirects out there that have been able to order the Voyager? I was told that some would come available yesterday afternoon, and then at the last minute it changed. It has been hard to get the Venus also - about every 2 or 3 days I get to sneak in a small order before they run out again.

Some should be available at 7am EST, from what I hear there are going to be a VERY limited amount.

Tomorrow??? Crap, I am in the central time zone and that means I have to be to work before 6AM again! Thanks for the heads up anyway.

No problem, my rep said "as early as 7:00 am(est) tomorrow (Wednesday)"

Online you can order your phones and you will get them in 2-4 business days most of the time it takes 2 and you get the better prices online!

We are indirects. And no, the outright prices wouldnt be lower then our cost, and we get the phones overnighted.

As a VZW employee i find it annoying that i can't even buy one. It's pretty lame that employee's can't buy the latest phones till they are months old.

You would think you would want your empoloyee's to have the phones so they can hype them to everyone they know .... not get them 2 months later once everyone and thier dog already have them.

I got mine at the Bridgewater New Jersey Circuit City store. I also will be returning mine there either this afternoon or tomorrow to exchange it for the v9m.

I went to the Verizon store today to see if I just had a bad Voyager phone and the phone was fine. As a matter of fact, I made a call from the model on display and it was awful. Then I made a call from the Motorola V9M and it was crystal clear. Just as if the person was standing next to me! SO, my Voyager is going back and I'm getting the Motorola V9m. Just thought I'd post this in case one of you lives nearby and wanted to get there when I return mine and buy it!
