24 hrs or so in preparing for shipment, then 4 working days to receive after it shipped as far as i could guess from people's reports. this is from china.
Ok, mine went to "Preparing for Shipment" this morning and it's just changed to "Dispatched" with an estimated delivery of March 21.
Update: I refreshed the page and the date is now March 22. That said, if I check the tracking code with UPS it says estimated by the end of the day on March 20. I guess I need to pay attention to this to make sure I'm home.

Mine shipped from China last night, and is now at Mississauga Canada. Will be delivered on Monday - so I only had to wait 1 week from the time I ordered my BTO configuration.
3.4 GHz 27" BTO (just fusion drive added) ordered Friday evening - (27th September)
Estimate delivery was 10th - 14th October
-----
Tuesday 1st October - Preparing for dispatch
Will let you know when it ships
-----
Update - was in Preparing for dispatch for 24 hours before moving to dispatched status. Its now giving a delivery time of 8th October. Its come from Cork and now says its in Hinckley. Would have thought it will get here sooner than the 8th in that case?
Update 2 - Now scheduled for delivery 4th October - So exactly a week for delivery, all being well

my BTO went to preparing for dispatch on Monday, 5 hours later it said shipped.
This is from the Ireland factory shipping to the UK. It turns up today (Wednesday).
In total it has taken exactly 7 days (discounting Tuesday evening, when the order was placed).
