Oh well... I couldn't help facepalming over my friends story.
In short, he and I both ordered a 15" MBP and since we both ordered hi res screens it was supposed to go out from China (according to Apple rep).
Coincidentally our MBPs were shipped the same day, but he got an earlier delivery date than me. (today)
That bugged me at first, but apparently it's because the MBP needs to hook up with a bloody bag I ordered as well... in Holland. Doh! Last time I order extra items.
Anyways, this is the transport route he experienced with his MBP, and quick note... we live in Denmark:
China
> Korea
> Kazakstan
> Poland
> Around several cities in Germany
> Glostrup, a city in Denmark
> Kolding, a city in Denmark (70km from where my friend lives)
> Now... it's back in Germany ( 200km the opposite way ) and will be delivered on monday???!?!
I mean comon! That's incredibly stupid no matter how much you try to save money on bundling deliveries. He could have had it yesterday had Apple chosen to send it a more customer friendly speed and route.
So in short... considering the amount we as customers pay to get a decent computer, it's staggering how bad their delivery service is.
