Got shipped last night at 4AM. Delivery scheduled for the 16th. Ordered late night on 10/27, 15" BTO to California.
 

Yeah me too! I'm in Montreal. I wouldn't count on the early delivery, for some reason there's often (not always) but often delays at the USA/CAN border... The 17th should be right!

Also what does Apple say? Mine says 21st on Apple's website but UPS is usually right :D I desperately want it before next weekend!!!!
 
Just chatted with Apple online to see why mine was shipped via FedEx Economy when most everyone else was getting 2 day UPS. She said all deliveries are 4-5 days from China. Nothing was 2-3 days. Guess she needs to take a look at this forum! Ha ha ha!
 
Not to be rude here, however by region North America (US and CA) is Apple's largest market share. Following close at 2nd is Australia. When it comes to production, supply, logistics, etc. Apple's goal is to fulfill the region with the largest market share. It's called efficiency. Please don't take this in the wrong manner, but there's a method to this.

Don't worry, you are not being rude. It makes perfect sense, even if it remains annoying anyway. Just wondering why US had 17-24 and EU had 16-23 in most orders in the first place, if it doesn't get close to reality. Just resulting in false expectations.
 
UPS tracking originally showed delivery tomorrow, then went to "unavailable" now back to tomorrow again. Import scan just happened at SDF. Setting mine up for pickup at the UPS store a few blocks away just to be safe. They generally deliver there around lunchtime so it looks like I'll be leaving work early tomorrow :D
 
Stuff like this chips away at my skepticism. YAY

I'm sure that EU people that got a Nov 16-23 delivery date will get their MacBooks in that timeframe. Maybe it'll come from one of the warehouses (CZ/NL) so it won't take long to ship to you.

Apple says 16th for me. Los Angeles is a priority market for shipping.

I agree, false expectations. Though I also believe Apple did not expect this demand. I'm not sure if you have seen recent reports. Apple has already outsold all computer companies this late in 2016.
 
Seems to be the same as I was prior to receiving tracking information. You should be soon. Obviously stock machines were in a batch, now they are being individually scanned. That's a lot of scanning and logistics information moving at once.

I have a good feeling about tomorrow. I know a lot of people have said that their estimated delivery date from UPS is the earliest on the range from Apple and Apple has a tendency to deliver on the first day or as early as they can.

Don't worry EU folk.

You will receive your orders as indicated. You should be more concerned if some folk in EU were getting shipment info....cause no one is, means it will all come at once.
 
It's just that I find it crazy that it's already in elk grove, plus i thought that there was a center that's closer from eastern Canada. It provably has to do with the fact that I chose store pickup

That's good for me. I chose store pick up and I am about 10 minutes from Elk Grove

This is where refurbished iPhones come from also (I've had to have a few replaced with AppleCare over the years)
 
One thing I've remembered is that in previous years my preorders have left out of Chicago when they're stateside, this would make sense for a tomorrow delivery as I live in Chicago and haven't been updated to shipping yet on the site.

Also for people like Gixene in Indiana or any of the surrounding areas, if you are scheduled for 14/15th deliveries this could be good for you as well.

So apparently my macbook is shipping to canada from Elk Grove in california, that's pretty weird

Mhhh ok... then maybe European MacBooks will come also from distribution centers NL or Prague. Maybe the high output together with iPhone 7 can't be handled in China. So some extra cargo flights went to Europe for shipping with e.g. DHL for Germany.
 
Has anyone found out the flight number for UPS holding the macbook pros? I am curious where it's at haha my shipping estimates the 16th but I saw someone else from los angeles have a 14th shipping date
 
Scheduled Delivery: Monday, 11/14/2016, By End of Day

Now, to sell my 4 year old MBPr. Anyone know a good way to do this, besides Craigslist?
 
I ordered at 13" stock touch bar model and it went to PFS on friday and now has an estimate of 14-21. I live in california and have not seen a shipped notification yet. Is it possible that it is already in the US like some of the other orders I have seen on this thread?
