finally went into the preparing for shipment stage!

and 2-3 hours later I get a text saying my order has shipped!! according to tracking, it's being shipped through FedEx and was picked up today in RANCHO CORDOVA, CA. no estimated delivery date, but I'm pumped!
 
I am just so jealous! Mine still says "processing". When did you order and was it a BTO?
 
Mine too, ordered 12/1 with iMac 21.5" 16GbRAM, Fusion Drive, AppleCare, Magic Trackpad. Still says processing...maybe I will call tomorrow and see what the hold up could be. Seems like everyone is getting theirs earlier.
 
Mine is out for delivery today. I left home for work at 3am so hopefully my housemate was able to collect it or ill make a pick up at the depo before they close for the day.

what does it say as your delivery date?
 
Still says delivery 12/19 to 12/24, ordered on 12/1/12. Just appears most that ordered the same time with about the same configuration have been getting delivery by now while I am "still processing". I am happy for everyone that getting to enjoy their new computer a bit earlier than expected, just getting a bit impatient :(

it literally a couple hours to go from processing to shipped and apparently it's in mississauga now, so if they ship it that fast, there is plenty of time for you to receive it by the 19th or sooner!
 
and the imac has been delivered! of course I'm at work now, but it's almost 5!

ordered: dec 4:
delivery estimate: dec 21-25
revised delivery estimate: dec 18-21
delivered: dec 13
 
Finally!!!

Yeah! Finally says preparing to ship! Just waiting for email confirmation and tracking! I'm so excited I can hardly contain myself? Maybe I will have it mid week, Wednesday.
Thanks again! :)

So you went from preparing to ship to having it delivered in 24 hours?? Wow, fast delivery! Maybe I will get mine tomorrow or Monday!
 
yep, according to the fedex site, they received it yesterday at around 1pm and by morning it was already in mississauga . i didn't order any expedited shipping or anything either!

hopefully same happens with you! :D reading the posts here, quite a few people went from preparing for shipping to shipped in a short period of time, so processing items is definitely the longest stage.

but really, checking the fedex site every 5 mins isn't much different from refreshing the store.apple.ca order page :p
 
I got mine yesterday, I was quoted 17-24th, But turned up on the 13th.

And by god its awesome, fully loaded 21" and damn its fast :D
 
totally clueless as to what to do with this mac. so far my success has been adding the right click functionality to the mouse and installing, unmounting and then deleting an app and its dmg file.

aside from that, i totally love this!

Over the night, mine went from preparing, to now has shipped. UPS tracking states it left Shanghai, China today. Estimated delivery is Wednesday...oh... the anticipation :D

I have noticed some are being delivered FedEx and some like mine, UPS. Is there a difference in the delivery speed? Mine shipped from China today and delivery is to be on Wednesday. Just curious as to the different shipping methods.

Congrats! I thought this would be the case, but didn't want to jinx it for you :D

mine shipped through fedex from California, but when I preordered my ipad3, it was shipped from China through UPS as well. don't know if this is in any way related
 
Ordered 12/6, 2.9 with 16 GB ram and fusion drive, it's leaving Sacarmento today and will be here by Wednesday, FedEx ground. Apple estimimated delivery when I ordered was 12/21-12/27. Hubby says it has to go under the tree for a few days. HA! Maybe the empty box will.
 
Mine shipped from Cali (Fedex) yesterday but is now showing Clearance delay in Mississauga. Expected delivery date is Dec 17...

If you ordered on 12/1/12 you should have it by now, if you ordered on 1/1/13 then be patient, it took 19 days for mine to arrive. Well worth the wait. I absolutely love my Mac :)
