I ordered my iMac on 1/31 and the pending charge on my card fell off a couple of days later. This morning I woke up and the pending charge is back on there. I am hoping that means that it might change to preparing tomorrow, but I have my doubts since there are multiple orders ahead of me according to the spreadsheet. Exciting none the less.

My credit card got charged yesterday for my order and I ordered on the 28th :D Still on processing though. I assume it could possibly be because of it being Sunday, but not sure. Ill check tomorrow and update !

My Scene Visa got charged yesterday after it was shipped out a few days ago. Two free movie passes! LOL

Still in Kentucky though.

I wouldn't be in too much of a hurry. My i7, 8GB, 3TB Fusion, 680mx ordered on Jan. 19, switched to preparing for shipment on Friday Feb 8th and still shows preparing for shipment. The chinese new year has my iMac built and ready to ship but no shipments so far since the new year. The celebration lasts this entire week and I hope my iMac doesn't sit there until the end of the week before shipping...

It's been 24 hours since the hold was put on my card and is still saying processing. I think Apple is just teasing me. :eek:

Another in the same boat (so to speak!) ordered 19th and been shipping since 6 Feb, but the expediters site shows it missed the flight it was supposed to be on, though its allegedly going to be in London by tomorrow! We will see I guess but I am not holding my breath on it!

My order has never switched to "shipped". It has shown "preparing to ship" since Friday, Feb. 8, at around 1:00pm eastern time, which is 2:00 am china time. And still shows preparing to ship. If in fact the factory and/or shipping department is celebrating the chinese new year, which lasts the entire week, I won't be seeing the status change to shipped until next Sunday night, Feb. 17.
Waiting patiently....

Bank sheeit

So i got a call from chase saying they had weird activity from the 9th.... and they waited till today to call. So I told them to allow apple, called apple to let them know what happened. They re ran the charge. It went through! AND she bumped me up to next day shipping!! for free!

Ordered on 1/30 and my new estimated delivery is Feb 22 - Mar 1. (from the 28-6) It still says processing order BUT at least its progress!

I've received mine today. Two days ahead of it's 13th estimative. It was shipped on the 4th (a 27" BTO). Apparently, flawless in regards of built/screen quality.

First post from my new 27" i7 1TB HDD, 680MX 8GB iMac...

FedEx got here about 13 hours ago and I've been setting it up and installing some games and Office...

My son is quite impressed Diablo 3 was running at 80-90fps while he was playing it in OS X (he did cap it later at 60fps). he then tried COD4 and thought that was incredible looking too and I was enjoying LOTR... now I am copying my photos over from the old MBP... the thing is whisper quiet and boot time is so fast it made me think i had fusion

27" 3.4G i7, 680MX, 3TB Fusion ordered 21 Jan just went preparing for shipment!! Woohoo!

Scheduled delivery is 19-26 Feb so will hopefully get it Friday so I can play on the weekend but more than likely Monday or Tuesday.

Someone must be working at Apple. Just hope they aren't all partied out from New Year celebrations. :eek:
