Even as deliveries of the Google Nexus 7 tablet have started, a number of retailers have struggled to keep up with the demand for the device.

The order page for the Google Nexus 7 tablet was removed from the website of GameStop even as the device was already sold out over at Staples and Adorama. A number of units were delivered by GameStop to its brick-and-mortar outlets since a number of consumers preferred getting the device through the physical retail outlets.

With the huge demand for the Google Nexus 7 tablets, retailers were unsure when the next inventory would arrive although some have expected deliveries coming in after a couple of weeks.

Although it was uncertain why the order page for the Google Nexus 7 tablet was removed from its website, a spokeswoman from GameStop revealed that the new orders taken by the retailer is expected to be delivered by August 7. On the other hand, the tablet was already sold out in Adorama and orders that were accepted were expected to be fulfilled near the middle of August.

For its part, Staples informed potential buyers to check the stores by July 14 since more units will reportedly be available by then. The company had previously revealed that it will start the delivery of the Google Nexus 7 tablets by July 12 while orders made by July 11 will be delivered within three days.

The Google Nexus 7 tablet can also be purchased through the Google Play Store. Orders will be delivered within two weeks time. The 8GB and 16GB models are also being offered through the Google Play Store at a price tag of $199 and $249 respectively.

Office Depot is reportedly offering the 16GB model of the Google Nexus 7 tablet and will be delivered two weeks after the order is taken. On the other hand a number of online retailers have started to accept orders although deliveries will start on September 1. Initially the delivery was supposed to start on August 15 before it was postponed earlier this week.

Futureshop Canada and Best Buy Canada are also set to start deliveries of the Google Nexus 7 tablet on August 10. The features offered by the Google Nexus 7 tablet coupled with its reasonable price have resulted to a lot of interest among consumers in the market.

For the moment no figures were available on the number of Google Nexus 7 tablet units sold or delivered by the company.
