The tracking system at UPS has been incredibly slow and unreliable the past two days. I am still hopeful I can get it tomorrow.

Strange thing just happened. I was just on the phone with UPS complaining about their tracking, and they told me that it could be a "fake scan", as they see with the same tracking number a shipment clearing in Cologne. Someone mentioned earlier that Apple seems to obfuscate the tracking info, but I can't understand why...

Really? Wow.
 
Status of the Apple store changed from 'Processing' to 'Preparing to Ship'. Still expected 3 - 8 Nov, but at least there's progress. Haven't been able to find it on any of the shipping companies using the reference tracking method.

How long before actual shipping/delivery did it change to 'Preparing to Ship' for most people?
 
I was on the phone with Apple Support specialist now, and they called UPS for me and kinda said to not worry about it and that I'll get it on 28th.
I can’t for the life of me understand why you all going nuts about the tracking. Don’t meter how many times your calling the mbp will arrive when it will arrive.

Picking up my 14” MacBook Pro 10/16/16 16GB 1TB right now at A-Mac Utrecht The Wall here in the Netherlands.

They had one model in stock for pickup in store. Ordered this morning via website and currently underway picking it up!

I would also love to order there, but then I won't get my education discount which is almost 10% of the total. So I'll just wait until 17/11-24/11.
Try A-Mac. They have the same education discount as Apple. Ordered my 14” this morning with store pickup for today. Currently in the car underway to the store.

Also bought it with education discount from my wife. ?

Do they also have the US keyboard? Because I am way too used to the US keyboard and I wouldn't like switching to the NL keyboard.

Edit: I see on the images on their website that it is the NL keyboard, so I'll just wait for my Apple store order :) Thanks for the tip though!

My MBP is in the exact same situation (at customs clearance, same times). UPS says 28th, Apple says 27th. I'm sorta hoping/thinking Apple is right as it wouldn't need two more days really. We'll see.

Exactly the one I want to go, nice! :)
I don't need overkill raw power + I prefer a cooler device, so the M1 Pro will be perfect for me.
I am not ordering yet, I gonna wait for more reviews and refurbed/retour offers. Have fun with your beast!
 
I'm getting really confused by this it's the 26th of October and I still didn't get comment by Apple about my delivery that was supposed on happening on the 27th. Now it keeps saying between 27th and 4th of November lol

I think we are in the same batch. Apple website quotes 28th for me. Might depend on the further distribution from the sorting hubs. We will know soon enough :D
 
What een beauty.

14" MacBook Pro 10-Core CPU / 16-Core GPU / 16GB RAM / 1TB Storage / Silver
I actually regret getting a space gray one, because the black keyboard contrasts so nicely with the silver. But no way I'm going to cancel and re-order, and push my delivery date back another month or so!

Order from France here, M1 Pro 16 inch, 32Go RAM, 512 SSD.

Mine is scheduled for Nov 4 - Nov 8 and prepare to shipping.

BUT

With UPS MyChoice, I see that label was created today and package departed China.
Scheduled for Friday 29 Oct according to UPS :eek:
