2016 Macbook Pro, Order/Shipping Thread

Nice to see some progress in Europe for sure! Mine is Nov 28 - Dec 5 so I guess it will be just another week of waiting for me, but I will have the money ready if Apple decides to charge me, who knows..

Happened to me with the iPhone 7. The site just would not accept my card. I called up and paid over the phone with the same card and it went through instantly.

And don't worry - you have 24 hours after a failed payment to rectify it without affecting your delivery date.

Ports Question
Thunderbolt 3 - Usb-C?

Till now, in my mbp(late '13) I have 3 cords connected:
- magsafe (for power)
- thunderbolt-to-ethernet adapter (for network)
- usb cable that goes to a usb hub (many usb devices)

How I can cover these needs in the new mbp?
I suspect I need adapters, so give something practical to see/search(ebay/whatever)

i really love the OWC usb-c dock check it out
 
So sad seeing people moving up their orders to 11-18 with Stock 13, when my Stock 13 just delayed from 11-18 to 16-23, but happy for the other ones of course and process as well.

It seems like America and Asia are going to be the first. I did ordre excatly when the phone app came back on.
 
Finally some progress yeah, Netherlands over here and just charged for the amount. No change in status (processing items).

Ordered 15 inch with 2,9 inch / 2 TB / 460 with dates of 16-23 nov.

Hmmm, I received an automatic email from the Apple Store that stated that I have changed my payment, so maybe it was accepted after all but the Online Store front end is just messed up.

Is the Apple Store UK support open Saturday if I want to call them tomorrow?
 
My stock 13" went from 15-22 to 14-21 but still processing. I think I didn't get up to 11-18 because I live in Davis, a small town near Sacramento so not as easy to get packages here as it would be in LA

Not sure where you are, but the delay could be a customs issues, especially since the MBPs are (presumably) coming from China. Or it could simply be a logistical issue where they don't have a critical mass of MBPs to deliver yet in your area. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you.
 
To the EU guys getting close to a nervous breakdown.. like myself.

Ordered my MBP on 27 Oct - delivery 16-23 Nov. Apple took a "reserved" amount on my CC for the Auto-Enroll Apple Care on 04 Nov, and just now Apple took another "reserved" amount on my CC for the actual MBP (Apple: ..right, let's see if this guy is actually good for the money). Now I'm imagining Chinese workers smiling all over, as they just got the 'ALL OK' yelling inaudible out of massive huge loudspeakers, in Chinese of course, and they get to build my MBP while there're thinking about it's going waaaay around the globe all over to a place called Holland, mumbling "John Cruijff and wooden shoes" in their best Dutch accent, whilst building the MacBook Pro 15 inch with utmost care and especially love. All done in like 12 minutes. 3 minutes actually building. 1 minute of tossing in free dongles in a secret compartment in the box, and 8 minutes of utter love and caressing the box with white gloves on, while mellow forest sounds is oozing out of a quality speaker.

Enough of that rambling. Almost. This is how I think it goes for the EU customers. Everything is going to their central depot in Eindhoven, Holland for EU custom clearance (hey, Apple/Ireland still have to pay the EU 14bn, according to Brussels, so they need fast profits). If your CC has been 'charged' or maybe Apple just made their 'reserve' on your CC, you'll get the shipping notice the moment it leaves Eindhoven, Holland and your MBP is on it way to your doorstep. That may be just 1-2 days between you get the shipping notice, till it actually arrives in our feverish, sweaty and shaking hands, while laughing hysterically and signing it off to the UPS courier on his worn out pad, looking strangely at you (me) and shaking his head, and wonders off to his brown van again for his next MBP delivery.

Hold on and keep faith !
