Same here, doubting the import delay gets resolved in time but apple was very friendly and shipped me a SuperDrive at no cost, I did not even ask for anything nor was I mad with them. Apple really does have great CS from my perspective.
Got a tip for us?

Same as you and cscscs... There should be flights out tonight after midnight, I'm hoping we are moving then .
nothing is going to happen until FedEx gets the paperwork and the Macs clear customs. I doubt Apple did anything over the weekend. I'm hoping it will be taken care of tomorrow. I'm not counting on the 12/24 delivery by 10:30am though.
No, no problem. I ordered on the 6th, and I suspect (FINGERS CROSSED!) that if we're REALLY LUCKY, we might have our orders change status on Monday.

I agree with you 100%. I think - and I'll gladly admit to this - because we are so eager to get out machines, we're passing time by bitch*ng
UPS sent an email this morning saying that it will be delivered by 10:30 tomorrow morning.
Lucky, my date is the 28th, but I am very optimistic it will arrive tomorrow, I mean, if it's already in Memphis and getting on a flight to Denver tonight, there is no reason it shouldn't make it in time.
Help Please
Please contact me via quote of this post or private message, if you ordered your 27" iMac after 2:00 PM PST on 11/30 and it is preparing for shipment, Shipped or received. If possible, include date / time ordered and specs. I ordered the i7 wit 8GB, 680 and 3TB fusion and am still processing

Mine is on its way to Denver
How do you know that yours is on this plane? How can I figure it out? Mine was in Memphis as of today.
I ordered my iMac on November 30 and I don't have it yet (although I should very soon). Do I feel that Apple owes me anything? No. Am I mad that some people who ordered after me already received their iMacs? No.
Before I ever clicked on the purchase button I was informed that the Mac would ship in 3-4 weeks. I didn't necessarily like that, but I agreed to that when I clicked "purchase". Apple actually shipped my Mac in 2 weeks and 5 days, beating their projection by 2-9 days.
When I completed the order I was informed that my Mac would be delivered between Dec 31 and Jan 7. It now appears that Apple and UPS are going to beat that by 6-13 days.
I'm getting what I was told I would get and what I agreed to. Actually, better than. That others may have received even faster service is ultimately irrelevant to whether or not I received the service I ageed to when I purchased. While I can kind of understand a certain amount of frustration, I can't say I understand anger or a sense of being owed something more. Just my two cents.

Oops, haha sorry dude! Just some light sarcasm
Hopefully as initial demand passes, the time frame will get shorter!
Exactly! Sure it might not be exactly first order in, first shipped out. But if Apple gets it to you on or before the dates they promised why all the Apple hate?
I just wish I had a date. Right now all I have is a month. January.
Mine is on its way to Denver
Checked my tracking after I read yours. Think mines on the same flight. Not sure if FedEx does home deliveries on Xmas eve?? Would be nice but I still have a Dec 28 scheduled delivery date
Ditto. Even though when I first ordered (12/3) I had 2-7 January but I appreciate things don't always go to plan. I waited 9 months for this, 2 more weeks wont kill me

In a nutshell this ^^^^^
Looks like FedEx Home Delivery is not doing Christmas Eve deliveries.

That's a special by-appointment service. It doesn't mean trucks aren't out doing express & ground deliveries.
I agree, they gave me 2 -7 Jan after the wired transfer was verified and i'll be happy if it gets to my house between those dates... If it came sooner i'd be just as happy... only a little earlier
Today is monday and im still processing. Apple has until friday for me to receive my imac otherwise they would have failed on their promised delivery date.
In the same chart, "Ground" and "Express" were marked as open (modified service). Deliveries will be made.
Has your estimated delivery date changed to tomorrow? The way it looks, I may get mine tomorrow!
My two new 27"ers arrive TODAY according to the courier/delivery company who sent me a message via txt this morning! Yay, early christmas present(s)
