Ordered my mini on a Friday, arrived following Wed.

Yours may vary, but you should receive a tracking #.
 
yeah I got a tracking number, the estimated delivery date from fedex says july 23rd. I thought it usually comes quicker than that! :( I want my Macbook!!!!
 
Where's it coming from? If it's coming from China, it'll take awhile. ;)
Also, unless you paid extra for expedited shipping, it's FedEx Ground service and that's not particularly speedy.

Patience grasshopper...

don't know yet, just says that fedex recieved the information. :( Hopefully it's not coming from china, hopefully it's comes on saturday.
 
Ok well i just checked this morning and it says departed from Sacramento, California so it should be here quicker than if it was from China!! woot
 
Hah yeah it's different company but normal UPS ground ships on Saturdays. Trust me, we've ordered a lot of things (dad) and some have come on saturdays with normal shipping. Idk, just cannot wait for my first mac to come!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hurry up fedex lol :D:D
 
you actually searched for these links to prove your point? wow man I'm just really excited to get my first mac and can't wait and you're destroying my excitement. :( Where's the usual, "congrats!! you'll love it! have fun with your new mac!!"
 

Why not trust the source?

Saturday delivery service is available for UPS Next Day Air and 2 Day Air shipment to most major metropolitan areas and from Canada to the United States. Also offered for UPS Worldwide Express Plus and UPS Worldwide Express for shipments to Canada, Germany, and the United Kingdom in major metropolitan areas.

Does FedEx offer weekend delivery?
Yes. Saturday delivery is available with FedEx Priority Overnight (tender your shipment on a Friday) and FedEx 2-Day (tender your shipment on a Thursday) in the majority of US cities. An additional fee applies. For Sunday delivery, we offer FedEx SameDay within the US and FedEx International Next Flight for international deliveries. Call 1.800.GoFedEx 1.800.463.3339 to request.


OP, is your Mac shipped via Priority Overnight or 2-Day?
 
Always do next day or 1 day delivery. It's not that big of a deal when you consider the expense of the computer yourself, and you're not waiting for a week or two for it to arrive.

Just Googled..

I purchase Macs all the time, just telling you the truth..

It is shipped Ground; service from Sacramento to most of Pennsylvania (OP's location) is five business days. Saturday is not a business day... FedEx says that it will show up on the 23rd, and per their shipping zone map, that is correct. I really don't see how this can possibly be so difficult to comprehend.

Yeah it's gonna be there next week!

Oops, I missed that. Yeah, it seems straight-forward.
