Anyone Order rMBP from MacMall OR Amazon?

[cliff.berinti]

I ordered mine on June 21st from Amazon because I had $500 GC and I wanted to use it before they start taxing Texas. They finally sent me an email last night with a delivery estimate of July 23, 2012 - August 11, 2012. I go look at MacMall and it says its ship estimate is a week on their site, so I'm tempted to cancel and order there, and just use my $500 on something else.

1. Has anyone received yours from either online retailer?
a. If so, how long did it take to get to you?
2. What would you do?

Thanks for your time,
Cliff

Personally I'd stick with amazon, & keep the $500 discount. I bet within a few weeks the supply constraints will have loosened and there will be stock delivered to amazon. It purely depends on how much you want/need it now, and how rich you are haha.

Thanks for the feedback.

I ended up canceling the order and running down to the Apple store on the other side of town for a $200 off student discount, which came to about $2160 after tax. Overall more savings if I can find something else to order on Amazon, and I get instant gratification.
