Can you share what your tracking looked like from China to Memphis from the beginning?
You ordered on the 15th- this gives me hope because I ordered on the 17th.
I am so upset!! 🤬 I don’t understand how fedex is able to get moving but no word or any movement from UPS. Their site warning stated a 3-day delay (which I understand), but yet it’s been more than 3 days, and we still don’t have any response or updates. Why haven’t they addressed anything? Why isn’t UPS at least trying to find a way to re-route or do anything? What is going on? Why is it so silent on UPS end? Why?!?! I’m so close to cancelling completely and ordering a new one. It will probably come sooner than my current one.
I've had the same routine daily for maybe the past week when I did not see any movement with my original order. I'd see the timeframe for shipping and always that my local Apple Store (Freehold, NJ) did not have it available for pickup. This morning around 7:30 I tried again and luckily this time it was available for immediate pickup. I quickly completed the order and cancelled the Nov. 10th order. After picking the MBP up I went back into the Apple Store app and noticed that my configuration was now unavailable. Just hit the lottery and lucked out this morning. Anxiety lifted!Congrats! When you first boot it up, can you log back in and reply here with where and when you saw it? I've been putting that exact configuration in for the past week every few hours and have only seen 1 in stock at an Apple store over 100 miles away.
I'm glad I'm not the only one going crazy about order statuses. I've been in a very questionable relationship with the DHL Express dashboard since Monday. I ordered a (silver) MacBook Air, 16GB RAM/512GB SSD/8 core GPU on November 13th. According to Apple it's due to arrive on Monday (30th). It's coming via DHL, and the status has been „Shipment information received in EINDHOVEN - NETHERLANDS, THE“ since Monday (23rd). Ah, and: delivery to Germany.
How long did it take from "Versand wird vorbereitet" to current status? Since this morning my MBP order shows this status.
Got an update on mine: ordered a Macbook Pro 16/256 on the 14th November, card was charged on the 25th and today the status was changed to Preparing Shipment. Destination is Germany. Anyone know how long it typically takes for the status to change to Shipping after it becomes Preparing Shipment?
Ordered my Air on the 20th with the same 8-15th window so hoping my schedule is a few days behind yours based on your order date with the same window!
Your order was the same as mine. I reordered, for in store pickup, when I saw the local Apple Store had it in stock and cancelled my online order.
I am in the same boat as you. It arrived 7:30am this morning right by my house for a Monday 11/30 delivery. Fingers Crossed
Exact situation occurred this morning for me. Found my config locally, cancelled my online order, and picked up my machine at the Apple store at 9:15. 👍
So, turns out posting here seems to have a magic effect – mine’s just been changed to Processed in Amsterdam. DHL now also estimates the delivery to be Monday.
When we all got our stuff, we meet again here next year?! 😉

Shanghai Gang: I spoke to Apple Support about my order. They're saying that the "In Transit" status means it has left Shanghai and is on a boat and hasn't made landfall yet in the US. They're saying the order can't be air shipped because of the battery type, and that I should still receive it by Dec 1. I don't believe that at all, because everyone else is getting their orders air shipped and it would take much longer if it was coming from China on a cargo ship - weeks.

Finally in Amsterdam.
DHL estimates delivery on monday. Yeahh!
Looking at those time stamps (from the attachment), I’m now wondering if maybe – just maybe – DHL will deliver it tomorrow instead of Monday. Man, that’d be awesome.YAY!
They will probably attempt to deliver today, but because of that this is the first time in 2 weeks I'll not be at home working the entire day. It would kill me if they try to deliver when I'm out

My MBP 16/1TB ordered Nov 11 is still processing with a delivery date of Nov 27 - Dec 4.
Meanwhile 4 of the local Apple stores have them in stock for pick up... 🤷🏻♂️

It made it on the delivery truck so it's coming early. I am shocked!I am in the same boat as you. It arrived 7:30am this morning right by my house for a Monday 11/30 delivery. Fingers Crossed
