Can people take screenshots of the UPS tracking page. I'm still trying to convince myself that these aren't flying for a while and more of us have time to be on the first flight. Thanks!!
 
Looks like people from the EU are in for the "long" wait. I'm still hoping to receive mine next week, although my estimated delivery date is 18-25. Fingers crossed.
Yup, US always gets them faster. I don't think that EU orders will come earlier than stated.. :(
 
I understand how you feel. But I just can't imagine Phil Schiller spending 30 minutes of the keynote breaking down all of the logistics and when each country is getting theirs. He said "You'll get them in 2-3 weeks" and everyone was given a delivery window.

In fact, I doubt very much there is ANY preferential treatment going on. It's in the hands of Apple's logistics partners. UPS's air service is 24/7/365 (I originally went to school to become a Commercial Airline Pilot and UPS was a company I really wanted to work for.) Perhaps Apple is simply using someone else to deliver to your country and they aren't flying out at 3AM on a Saturday, the list goes on.
He said "and they'll start shipping in 2-3 weeks" and all he needed to say - if indeed the rest of the world will be later than the US - "shipping in two weeks starting in the US".

As to the courier, all my Macs have been shipped by UPS and I checked the schedules to the UK - if mine was shipped at the same time as the flurry last night, it would have an ETA of Monday too.
 
REALLY SHIPPED!!!

If you have paid with a Visa CC and your order is more than 25.000 dk kr, you could very well run in to the same issue as I have. It will show up on your Order status though, so check that.

Now, if you have paid with Dankort (or the Dankort part of your Visa/Dankort CC), you might not run into an issue at all. That could depend on whether the Apple charge is considered coming from Denmark (since it is a Danish web store after all) or whether it is charged internationally. I think you can use your Dankort for more than 25.000 dk kr if the transaction in considered within Denmark. My bank couldn't tell whether that is the case with Apple.

What I find weird is that the Apple Online Store system doesn't throw an error when you try to use a Visa CC on an order that exceeds the amount of 25.000 dk kr. It really should, because that would spare both the customer and Apple a lot of trouble.

BTW, a funny fact is that I tried to use my Dankort and while the webpage threw an error, I was actually charged 1 kr from Apple as their pre-authorized the card. And I got an email that I had changed my payment method. In other words, a complete mess. o_O

I used my visa/dankort!

As far as i could se theres no upper bound in dk stores and an upper bound at 25.000kr at foreign stores : below is taken from jyskebank homepage

Hope I'm wrong, but I still expect those who have tracking with a Monday date will get them on Thursday. If Apple wants everyone to get them on the same day, they'll just ask UPS to hold them.
 
Yes lol, very possible contradictory to what people on here seem to think. Actually probable really.
Stop spreading misinformation. They don't use random planes to fly overseas. They will use other planes within a country.

Indeed. What is the amount you have to pay? Mine is 25.459,00 kr, so a very small amount above the limit. Arg! :eek:

"Stop spreading misinformation" as literally every single post of yours in this thread has been speculation that you back up with past speculation?

And what have yours been? Speculation based on nothing? Like last night when you were sure they were all in the US...right on "bro"...keep at it!!
 
Seems to be only the 15" BTO that are shipping now (from China). My 13" stock, base model, is still "Preparing for Shipment". The funds were held on my credit card.

I have a feeling the 13" base models are already in US/Canada and waiting to be shipped via UPS maybe Monday before the embargo lifts.

Estimated delivery here in Montreal, Canada is Nov 15-21. So probably this coming week!

The stock ones are likely in the US or will be before being assigned and shipping notices given. So you will likely get it as early as everyone with BTO but will be kept waiting for a shipping notice to a bit later.
