Yes, but I will call them tomorrow, not today anymore because they have to wait for the custom clearance which should be finished between 0-1am.
Just went shopping in Zwolle (The Netherlands) and went to the iCentre, luckily they had one MacBook for demo and is was gorgeous!!! They only didn't have them on stock but expecting it end May. I still need to wait 3/4 weeks.....
Does anyone of you, guys, ordered the USB-C Adapter together with your Macbook? I mean in the same order. Not a separate order.
And when did you order your MacBook? My shipment seems to be delayed because of that. I ordered it on the 10.04. around 09:10 h.
My MacBook was in Luxembourg, then they have to ship to Prag where the USB-C Adapter is waiting. Then they will pack everything in one package.
Also i have no tracking information about everything. Only Apple know where my Macbook is.
It is the first time where i have such bad tracking informations.

Yo.
I'm in the exact same position as you. My MacBook (1.3 SG) and USB-C adapter are shipping separately and (presumably) meeting up to be shipped to me together. I'd much rather they shipped individually and I get the MacBook sooner!
Did you order any accessories with it or AppleCare as that could delay it. If not, no harm giving them a call.
Yes. My parcel departed Cologne 3 times. 2:58 am, 4:30am and 7:31am. To sum it up, i think ups will deliver my parcel as predicted on Monday by end of the day.

Mine hat the same departure scan @Cologne at 4:30 in the morning and now it changed to 7:30... Called UPS already, they only can see the 7:30 scan.
If it has really left at 4:30 it will be definitly in delivery today the hotline told me. If it departed at 7:30 it will be likely delivered on monday...

I won't bet on that. We should better expect the delivery earliest on monday. Unfortunately of course.

Called as well. It's definitely left at 0730, and is currently in transit on the road. Was told: There's really no chance for it to be delivered today, and there is no way to fetch it from the local UPS depot today either.
So, Monday then!
Definitely. It arrived in Herne right now.
Interesting that it takes longer through Germany itself than to arrive from Asia.
It takes the cheapest route because of the cheapest delivery method chosen by Apple.
So we have to be patient the whole weekend. :/
I asked that. They said that's not possible, since it won't be unpacked from storage until the day of delivery.
I called them as well.
She said that the tracking splits at this point, because the paperwork is delivered from Cologne to Boerne and is checked over there in the Hub. Once that is cleared, the actual package leaves Cologne Airport directly.
That means for me paperwork left at 2:07am to Herne, where it arrived at 3:24.
The MacBook left Cologne Airport at 4:30am, and she said there's a 99% chance I'll receive it today. I wouldn't mind if she was right

Be still, little heart?
But yeah, I was wondering why there would be multiple Import/Departure/Arrival scans stacking up. That would explain it I guess.
I tried the same in the past. At least at my local office it is not possible to get the parcel before the day of delivery, because the containers are sealed.
It also may be that the parcel will stay in Herne until Sunday night / Monday morning for the last part of the road.
Yep that explains it. They should really make that more clear on the UPS website.
UPS still shows me an expected delivery of Monday on it's website. However, the Apple Store tracking always gave me today as the delivery date, and I'm sure it's somehow connected to UPS' systems as well.
This whole thing is a mess.

I wouldn't be surprised if folks at the UPS hotline were just repeating hearsay and watercooler theory crafting themselves. I'm kind of suspecting that all they do is just look up your tracking # on the UPS website themselves and then just put on their smooth voice.
Edit: Anyways, my advanced math knowledge tells me that IF my parcel left for Munich at about 0430 in the morning it should be in the local depot here at around 10, 11-ish, and I'll see a update then soon enough.
