Ordered 11/30. Shipped on 12/13. It is still sitting in China with an export scan. Estimated delivery date of 12/20 in Cincinnati Ohio. This is UPS. I tied to get the 2-3 day shipping upgrade but apple said it wouldn't matter. I guess I should of tried harder. Do you guys know how I can track it better or do you think it will be here by the 20th?

I've also called Apple to get expedited shipping, but they told the same - it wouldn't matter.

Feeling solidarity with my fellow pallet-mates! :cool:

After three tedious days stuck in Kentucky and countless refreshes of the UPS tracking page, my iMac has finally departed Louisville. Hoping that yours are seeing departures, too. Hang in there, brothers and sisters!

Mine left Kentucky too!!! It really ought to be delivered tomorrow! Can't wait.

Dec 6? Does Time Machine do that?? lol. And yes, I am getting mine tomorrow, one day earlier than UPS said originally, and 6 days earlier than Apple originally said it would deliver.

Also... When you say 6 days earlier than apple estimated do you mean Apples estimate immediately after you purchased or the estimate when Apple sent you with the shipping notice.

Mine was shipped this morning, unfortunately using UPS. My estimated delivery from Apple is Dec. 6, and I have no estimate from UPS yet. I was really hoping to get it by Christmas Eve... Has anyone that had their iMac shipped UPS come earlier than the estimate from Apple?

My estimated delivery from Apple (shown in the shipped email) is Dec 26, but I called UPS to confirm and they said that they showed it would deliver Dec 21, give or take depending on customs. So take that for what it's worth.

The last scan I had was 12/15 Export scan still in Shanghai. Anyone else having this happen. It shipped 12/13. I've heard of late updates on packages but to still be sitting in shanghai for 4 days is ridiculous.

Good to know. Our iMacs must be on the same shipment.

The delivery time from the initial ship date is supposed to be 2-3 days for all orders including these China imacs. Something is very wrong here.

Well apparently is matters very much from some of the tracking reports posted here. They can't really say that anymore with a straight face. It's just not true.

Just figured out how to take a screen shot. Here it is. This is what it shows on UPS now.

It was nice traveling with you Kronen. I guess this is where we take different trucks. Hope you arrive with all your pixels in place. Merry Christmas!

Very nice to have you as a traveling companion, as well, RichiMac. Be sure to post when your iMac arrives; all of us UPSers need some catharsis after so much waiting.

Cheers!

It's being real nice to them and poor you for this very long wait so close to xmas. Some agents won't have any of it. It's case by case, agent by agent.

I know better than to be rude or condescending. I guess I'll keep trying.

I've also ordered on Dec 3rd. What is your order status?

It still says "Processing Items". Expected delivery is 27 Dec, 2012 - 06 Jan, 2013 :-(

I'd love to get it before Christmas obviously but I'm more worried about a late delivery time cuz I'll be visiting Dubai next week and plan on bringing it back with me when I come back on Jan 8.

Thanks

You might want to clean that up being that your order number, serial number, phone number, etc are all there as additional references...

Thanks. I am borderline retarded when it comes to computers and this stuff. If it weren't for these forums or youtube I wouldn't even be able to turn a computer on. Pretty sad.

6 days earlier than when purchased, which said Dec 24-31. One day earlier than UPS said it would arrive....tomorrow instead of Wednesday. I only found out about the 1 day early today.
