I ordered a 27" Saturday night and I'm fine with January delivery. Gives me something to look forward too. Did want to sell my 2010 MBP 15 before x-mas but oh well. It'll still sell.

Can I just ask, where are you people getting January 31st delivery times from?
 
nobody seems to have same dates as me

Same as me, same dates also.

I'm a UK 27 inch which I ordered on 30th november. I have 2-3 weeks with delivery estimate of 27th-28th december. No1 else seems to have these dates or even a date range this specific.....

Probably depends on what spec you ordered - I took the high end 27" and bumped the CPU and GPU to the max and added a magic trackpad, if that helps.

Another lucky man!!! :cool:

I guess the "US" iMAC's will get there first as they made some locally, please check your "made in" sticker when you get your machine just to confirm that theory is correct.

I'm from Barcelona, so I guess that the "EU" zone deliveries will arraive later from china.
 
has anyone in Europe managed to bump up the delivery speed ? Personally I wouldnt mind paying 200$ extra for express delivery, if I could get it before new year.
 
I ordered mine at 11:59 pm on the 29th November, Site went live few mins before midnight. Yet mine is still processing lol'

Australia waits for everything
 
Im starting to believe expediting my shipping has hurt me

I called in and got the expedited shipping and mine is preparing for shipping. I7, 680, 1TB Fusion ordered about 3 hours after start. In the US.

I also bought a 21' - it stayed in preparing for shipping for over 24 hours. It came from China - had overnight shipping but took about 4 days to get to my house from China.
 
This is nuts. I haven't been this anxious for a Christmas present since I was ten. And that was over 50 years ago!

It actually makes me feel better to see everyone else as neurotic over this as I am. At least I am not alone in my craziness.

That's exactly what I've got, also in the uk, order within 10 minutes of launch. It would be great if it came before christmas my 2006 macbookpro is driving me nuts

I'm from the US.

Which is strange. My originally delivery date is 24-31, and its hasn't changed yet either. Probably has to do with country location.

I don't know. Mine still says processing items, and I am in California too. I ordered in the first 15 minutes they were available. I get the feeling it is either just more random than that or else it's a configuration thing (but I haven't seen any evidence yet that it's a configuration thing).
