9numbernine9, did your tracking just go from At dest sort facility to On Vehicle for Delivery? Based on my tracking info in my previous post would you expect it do arrive today?
Indeed it did. It went from "At dest sort facility" on Saturday morning to being "On FedEx vehicle for delivery" this morning. Looking at your information, I'd say you're in the same situation and can probably expect delivery today*. :)

* I'll never claim that I can predict FedEx, though. ;-)
 
i dont understand it very well though. all the shipping points are in shanghai? has my machine just been pinballed arround shanghai or something?

i presume this will be going to arnhem? for the 14th... so going off what i was told, it takes about 1 day to get from arnhem to UK so i am looking at 14-16th i think

Mine is the same as yours (mind you I haven't got the flight departed line yet), same destination too - did you order any add-ons? I think that's why it's going to Hinckley, which might be where the various bits of your order get put together.

My limited understanding of the process is that it takes a day to get from the factory to Shanghai, then it can take another day or two for the package to get on a flight. By the third or fourth day (i.e. today, hopefully) your laptop will be either in the UK or in Arnhem.
 
Well, mine is finally on its delivery truck! You guys be on the look out for a picture gallery here in the next few hours. It will be up pretty soon after I get it.
 
I'm using my new 1920x1200 7200rpm Macbook pro right now. It's soooo nice. I won't miss my 1.5ghz g4 powerbook at all :)

I'm still showing an delivery date of 21st June, any chance I might get the MBP this week?

Im feeling left behind with this apecode thing, my est' delivery date is the 13th and i still can't get on apecode!
 
The tnt tracking site has been updated and mine is now in Arnhem. Pretty funny how at 10 am today I was told it was in China, must've been on the plane.

Now I guess it's whether I get lucky and get it tomorrow or on wednesday.
 
Same here - even with mine confirmed as in the UK I still see nothing on Apecode. :(

Same here nothing.

and my status on TNT is still "CALL" and apple says "delayed in transit"

I hope it hasn't been dropped by TNT... I have this image of an out of control mini forklift going straight into a pile of MBPs.
 
Apecode does nothing for me either.

Edit: Hold that. It's now arrived at Arnhem according to the TNT tracker on my widget

yeah its merging in UK where i was told itll merge with a copy of parallels. i pray to god they dont mean their gonna install it, but they probably will... i can see that taking a while
 
It's a bit confusing as it seemed a lot of us were all shipped out at the same time but now we have greatly differing results. My apple tracking page still says delayed shipment :confused:
 
I suppose as long as we all get it by our estimate delivery dates, then we can't really complain. Still it is fustrating - have been waiting for this for months!
 
I think part of the confusion might be due to the fact that some of us have ordered additional items which have to be merged in transit. If this is the case then TNT/UPS aren't aware of the delivery until the shipment is handed over in Europe. The estimated delivery dates that are provided by Apecode are for delivery to the European hub (Arnhem / UK)

If it's a single stock laptop then TNT/UPS can track it from the factory.

The process is very well explained in a couple of the forum posts on Apecode, here: http://www.apecode.com/appletrack/viewtopic.php?id=443
