makes sense...since they're made in Asia they'll ship faster inter-continent and with less paperwork.
Got a tip for us?

But alternatively they could have prioritised US and Europe orders first in view that they will take longer.
Doesnt seem that way, but I'm surprised.
Hopefully that means the rest of us in the U.S should start seeing movement early this week!!
I ordered
2015 MacBook Pro 15-inch Silver
- Intel i7-4980HQ 2.8GHz (10,059 PassMark Score)
- 16GB 1600MHz memory
- 1 TB PCIe-based SSD
What you don't know yet is the PassMark score on your new processor is only 8,702. You spent $250 more then me for 1,357 points less processor performance. I've got USB 3, HDMI, DisplayPort and Thunderbolt ports, and an SD card reader. Apple screwed you.

2018 called, how many of those USB-C ports you got bro?
Wow you show up stomping in a 2016 order thread and you replied to OP that has no beef with you, please go somewheres, you're a mess.
You're a bum. I'd rather have Apple screw me than screw myself like your dumbass. Hope you enjoy that SD card reader my guy, I'll send you some pictures of my new MBP for you to throw on a card that you can throw in there. That'll look real nice on your Flickr since you're still stuck in 2009 I guess.
The 2016 13" MacBook Pro is actually one of the worse buys out of the group.
2016 called, how many of those ports you got to charge your iPhone or plug in a USB stick bro? There are around 50 billion existing USB device that use the Type-A port. I don't have a single USB-C device and I don't have any plans to get one anytime soon. That fancy new iPhone 7 Plus Jet Black 256MB I just got doesn't have a USB-C connector and I don't plan on upgrading to a new iPhone for at least three years. With the money I saved I was able to get an Apple Watch.
Stop embarrassing yourself mate.
256MB? No wonder you need that extra cash.. you must have 256 other iPhones too.
Dude's just mad he chose a 14% processor upgrade over a 25% RAM upgrade, the fastest SSD on the market, Touchbar, and modern I/O.Stop embarrassing yourself mate.
I came here to post this link, and that was really all I came here for:

It's a spreadsheet of apple's portables lineup with z-scores to compare all of them. As far as the 2016 MacBooks Pros are concerned the best values are as follows:
MBPt 15: 2.9GHz 16GB 512GB
MBPt 13: 3.3GHz 16GB 512GB
That's the last time Apple actually did anything worthwhile for the Macs. My Mac Pro 2010 has two Xeon X5690 (40GHz), 128GB of RAM, 512GB PCIe SSD, and Nvidia GTX 980. It's Geekbench score is like 35,000, it's faster then Apple's fastest Mac Pro 2013. Have fun with your 16GB.
Order details please. Config? And delivery dates?

I have been up since half 3 in the morning refreshing this thread. That is something to be concerned about.
Interesting - you have a very similar config as mine (I had 2 TB), had a later ship date than I did, and live in virtually the same place.
Mine's still processing, and my original ship date is 29th through December whatever.
Apple just attempted to charge my card too, but citibank messed up and declined the card twice... despite me calling them twice and warning about the charge and them assuring me they won't block it...
Order Time: Within 5min of store opening after the keynote
Delivers: 14/11/2016 - 21/11/2016
Country: Hong Kong
Config:
13-inch MacBook Pro - Space Gray
I am leaving Hong Kong on the 15th, so I am a little worried my order will get delayed and I won't get it in time...
To top it all off, citibank is upgrading their systems and needs me to call back in 30min... aaargh
