Has your SR MBP shipped yet?

I have heard conflicting reports. I have heard people say what the Genius told you, but have also heard of people buying online and then taking it to an apple store.

Someone here should be able to clarify.

I didnt even orderd online, but i called to apple to make my order. But mine died in 4 hours after it got deliverd, i went to the "apple shop" in the city to talk about it. The genius did take a look at it for me and said it was prolly doa. He couldn't take it in, because i didnt buy the computer there, instead he dailed apples number and gave me the phone. I asked him if this was a apple store and he said it was a franchise. So franchise no, apple store maybe? The genius was ta least nice enough to take a look at it for me, because he wasent obligated.

Anyway, yesterday my replacement is shipped. TNT says it wil take 6 days. The time before it took 2 days while they said 4 days. Whats funny is that the times and the routes match with the hour with my last shippment. So i guess it will prolly be here by tomorrow or the day after in the worst case.
Ive been waiting for more then 6 wheeks, guess a couple of days wont hurt.
 
For those of you who got yours recently...I know there were a few of us who received ours yesterday...what week is yours? Mine is week 32. That means it was built a week maybe 2 before it actually shipped. WTH!

It's not a big deal, I was just wondering if it was built already, why did they take so long to ship it?

But so far it looks good. Much better than my 12' PB. I tried the "yellow" screen test and the bottom square isn't yellowish but it's not as white as the top square (on the black pic). On the gray pic, the bottom square is less visible than the top, but not yellowish either. I don't really notice any yellowing when doing other things. So I probably shouldn't mess with it. But I'm one of those curious I have to know type people. :rolleyes: Oh it's an LG matte.

I didn't get much time to test many other things out. But hopefully, I won't be posting much in this forum in the future.
 
Anyone purchase on or around 8/17? Can you update me on the status of your order. (ship date, delivery date etc.) Thanks.
 
I just ordered mine today. :) :apple:

It's a base 2.2 with a glossy screen.

It's showing a ship date of September 4-7. :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:
 
I am leaving the states on monday(8/27). I ordered my MBP 2.2 GHz on the 17th. Any chance it would be there before I leave? I used the student discount and recieved the iPod and printer yesterday. What are my chances the MBP will arrive by the 27th if ordered on the 17th?

I got mine yesterday too, and it is an LG glossy, week 33.
However, I remember there has been some discussion on this forum before, apparently there are different ways of 'counting' weeks, so it might not be 'old' but just due to this?

Zero chance. I ordered a stock model on the 9th and it just shipped yesterday.
 
Shipped on: Aug 23, 2007 via Flextronics Logistics B.V.

When do you think it i'll get it? before the end of the month or no chance?

It should get to you by the end of the month. Mine took about 4 days to get to me.

Good to know as shipped today and the tracking info says...Estimated Delivery Date 03 Sep 2007 (Subject to change) ...

How could this take so long. 11 solid days and 6 working days from China (I guess) to Europe...do they ship the HW "raw" and SW is loaded locally based on location/country...i dont think so...i beleive the take the cheapest delivery mode...they could ship and afford express mode for the price way pay! Just my opinion though as i am an impatient person by nature.
 
My 17" has just been transfered to fed-ex today, it would have shipped from china today but they missed the cutoff... bastards... I've already waited 3 days for them to build the damn thing! now at least 3 more (prolly see it tuesday or wednesday I think) as it has to ship from shanghai to alaska to tenn. then to Calgary... hmmm maybe Thursday at the latest....

*patiently waiting* :cool:
 
I got out of a lengthy meeting this afternoon and discovered a laptop-size box outside my office door. Could it be? Alas, no--just some books. The wait continues.

Mine's an institutional order, and for whatever reason, the institution doesn't want to give me an order number (isn't bureaucracy great?), so I'm in the dark as to when my new MBP will show up. Soon, I hope, but if other posts here are any indication, the arrival date for my August 13 order may still be 10 days or so off.
 
I'm a bit late, just ordered mine last night! Says it will be here by August 31st. I got a refurb 17'' 2.4 GHz, with the high res screen. I'm so excited. :D Love my iBook dearly but the 12'' screen was just so small. This is going to be a long week!
 
so i received mine yesterday, and now i'm sending it back in for a replacement, oh well, it does kind of suck that i wont have it for when school starts, but oh well, the screen was warped so it when it was shut the left corner was not flush with the other, they said it would lead to more problems down the road, so yeahh

That is a common problem with these computers. I really hope you are not sending it back only because the left side of the lid sits up a few mm.
 
Prepared for shipment

Looks like shipping estimates are staying fairly accurate...
Order placed on August 12, just turned "prepared for shipment".

MBP 15/2.2/2x1GB/120-5400/128VRAM-USA
MA895LL/A
(Stock system, Matte screen)


Ships by: Aug 22 - Aug 27
Delivers by: Aug 24 - Aug 30


I'm assuming it will ship either tomorrow (24th), or Monday the 27th.
 
I ordered my MBP, 2.2 ,15" Glossy with 160GB@5400 on early 21st of Aug, PST.

I received in my email the order ACK on 22nd of Aug.

Ships by: Aug 30- Sep 5
Delivers by Sep4 - Sep10

The problem is that I am leaving to Europe for 2 months on the 5th of Sep, morning. I have no one to receive it on my behalf.

Do you think that is going to make it ? I am considering cancelling the order.
 
There is a possibilty that you can maken it. The first time i orderd i got it 2 day's before the original receive date. But this time it was a bit delayed. Anyway TNT tracking info says : Out for delivery. So i have shut down every sound around the house and tested the doorbell twice, downstairs and upstairs.
