I ordered my 13 inch retina macbook pro fully loaded on Nov 19th. Shipping says 3-4 weeks. Has anyone who ordered around that time already had their MBP shipped? Would like to get an idea of when mine will actually ship out.
 
Mine was ordered by Apple as a replacement on november the 6th, shipped the 23rd and received the 28th. BTO 2.6/16/512.
 
I ordered my MacBook Pro 13 inch Retina specced up 16GB ram 2.6GHz 256SSD on the 12th of November at time of order it was a delivery time of 2-3 days I have been given a delivery date 13-18th Dec (3-4 weeks delivery time) .
Unfortunately if I made the order now the quoted time for the same spec is 1-2 weeks Apple often gives a pessimistic delivery time.
I do my best to forget about this it will be here soon it is a shame my old Macbook Pro died just after I ordered this I was hoping to not wait too long .

I don't think there is a time problem if the standard configurations are ordered .

Still there are people starving - homeless living in war zones etc so I shall deal with it .
 
I ordered 10th November, 2.6/16/512 and it was dispatched 30th November. Initially it was 1-2 weeks for shipping, then was pushed back further another 3 weeks. Apple site still estimates 16-20th Dec for delivery which clearly isn't right. UPS has it scheduled for Thursday.

I ordered mine on the 17th of November and it still hasn't shipped - the estimate was 3-4 weeks. Sounds like it should be getting close though and will beat the estimate.

I called apple to ask about the wierd shipping times since the store now shows only 1-2 weeks and they would up comping me a carrying bag for not being able to confirm why the system is out of wack.
 
I ordered a 13" MacBook Pro with Retina on the 17th of November. It said "ships in 3-4 weeks" and the estimated delivery dates were between Dec 16 - 23.

It was the 2.6/16/512 model.

My birthday was in November and it was going to be a birthday gift but I suppose it's a Christmas gift now...

It's been though being without a MacBook since my White Mid-2010 MacBook died on me last month. The iPad with a bluetooth keyboard just doesn't do it for me.

I hope that we all get our new MacBook Pros with Retina soon
 
I ordered 13" i7 with 16gb RAM on Nov. 29 (Black Friday) and it said it will be available for pickup at Apple Store on Dec. 11.
 
Mine is the 13 inch 16/2.6/512

From everyones post it seems to take an average of about 20 days from the date of the order to ship out the laptop.

I also called apple and was given a free backpack ($79.99 Value) due to the online system giving an estimate of 1-2weeks after my order date. I think they have since fixed that.

Not in my case, at least i dont think. 20 days will be on the 4th... Still no change of the status... showing 12-20th.

They charged me for the apple care the day after i placed my order.

They just charged me for the laptop so I'm assuming its going to ship very soon

Interesting...

My bank account shows a debit of $210.74 on the date of purchase, and thats it.
 
Disregard. Now it shows that the full price was debited, but... no change in status on the applestore site..
 
Just checked and last night my credit card was charged for my 2.6/16/512 macbook pro. No change in status on website but assume that means it will ship soon. Anyone know how long that turnaround takes from charge to shipping?

I ordered mine 11/17
 
Ordered mine the 8'th of November and it just shipped from China. Expected delivery 9'th of December. Only like a month late. Defintely asking for a compensensation.

My iPhone 5s shipped 3 days after getting charged on my credit card
 
I ordered mine (13" 2.6/16G/256Gb) on Nov 16th. Initially said 3-4 weeks for delivery. Last night it said processing for shipment and shipped. UPS tracking says delivery tomorrow. (shipped from Nashville?)
 
mine (13"/2,6/16/256) has just shipped too and in Shanghai at the moment. Delivery time: 20th dec. to İstanbul
 
I have UPS scheduling delivery for Monday the 9th so total time from order to delivery is just short of a month and better than the worst delivery time I had a week or so ago which could have been the 18th of December .
 
Instead of Dec 11th pickup date, I got confirmation yesterday, Dec 5th, and I picked up my new rMBP 2.8ghz i7 with 16gb RAM. It's flawless and had all the software updated minutes after I set it up. Everything is running flawlessly.
 
Ordered November 19th

Finally preparing for shipment. Im assuming it ships within the next few hours
 
Ordered December 1st. 2.8/16GB/512 SSD.

I'm really hoping Apple keeps its delivery window of December 13th-20th, although for it to deliver in Portland, OR by the 13th, it should have already shipped by now. Paid for expedited shipping. The fastest route I can think of from Shanghai is say...PVG-ANC-OAK-PDX....although if there's a nonstop by FedEx from Shanghai to Oakland that might be faster.
 
My laptop just got shipped out and will be delivered on wednesday

Ordered Nov 19th
Delivery Date Dec 11th

I got free expedited shipping done when i called to complain that online words place later were shipping faster. You guys should do the same.
