I ordered the 64gb version from a third party reseller and I'm dreading the wait in the dark. Anyone successfully got their's already from a non official store?

For non-base models, it seems that third party resellers order directly from Apple
At least it's what's happening with mine so I hope we can expect similar delivery date
 
Just got the shipment mail, and seems like is already moving.

For future reference:

Model: 16" 10/16/32GB/1TB/ITA
Order date: 30/10/2021
Charge date: 20/11/2021 (they tried on 19/11/2021 to charge but had I problem with my Bank per-day limit)
Prepare to Shipping: 23/11/2021 (by early morning CET)
Shipped: 25/11/2021 with UPS

Expected delivery: 30/11/2021

If the shipment will not have delays I would get my hands on the machine exactly 4 week after the order.

Glad it has finally shipped. And you will be getting it almost a week earlier than the original date too.

It's really worth the wait. The whole thing is beautiful and super quiet.

Should move pretty fast now, good luck!
Thanks mate! I really hope so, as far as I see, most of you got the "Shipped" notification within less than 24h-48h from "Preparing to ship", i'll let you know the details.

Btw, one quick doubt, has your CC been charged already? Mine shows the operation as authorized since 23th Nov for the total amount (so I guess pre-auth) but not 100% taken yet as happened to you, despite that, I can't dispose from those funds since they're blocked by Apple, so I guess everything it's ok, but just to certify with you.

Thanks again!

Yes, your CC situation same as mine. Judging by some other posts here I expect to move from pre-auth to charge tomorrow!

Hi folks! Ordered 14" basic version of MBP on 11 November with US Keyboard to Paris.
Initial delivery date was 9 - 16 December which was improvised to 6 -13 December by Apple.

Below is an update till today; my card is not yet charged. Wondering what is meant by "Cleared import Customs" - is the customs done in advance while the item is still at Shanghai or after reaching France?

I ordered 16"/32/64gb/2TB on 21.10.2021 and original delivery date was this week. Today my dealer said 15.12. Did anyone get 64gb version yet?
 
My one changed in DHL, processed in amsterdam and scheduled to be delivered tomorrow!
Hope this last step passes fast, sometimes it's the hardest one, but this whole process is being harsh, so it's just hours away, enjoy it!

Also, your PTS (Thursday morning) to Shipped (Friday night) window makes me want to believe that mine will be shipped tomorrow as well, since it was PTS this morning, so anxious to get it next week ?

Returned the MacBook Pro 16” M1 Max in Spacegrey because of the faded stain in the display.

Was able to reserve a MacBook Pro 16” M1 Max in Silver and will pick it up this Saturday. Silver makes me have memories about my first MacBook. :)
 
One week after the charge showed up on my card the status has now changed to PTS! I just got bored refreshing the page today and figured it’s not going to happen but did a refresh earlier this evening and now just before I’m going to bed and it’s finally changed. Hopefully it’s also going on to be shipped really soon as well even though I’m not entirely sure I’m going to believe it’s gonna happen before the weekend.
