Possible...Was thinking we might see a departure scan for those moving via UPS since they had a local time arrival stamp.
Shanghai, China 11/21/2014 10:08 P.M. Arrival Scan
Mine is a couple of packages and I won't get tracking details until the packages meet up. I suspect that will be when they get here in the UK
----------
I'll miss posting on this thread when we have all received our new toys. Having said that I'll probably be too busy playing with my new toy
Mine has moved to export scan in Shanghai at 7.28pm local time this morning, other than that was stuck on arrival scan since 10.00am local on 21st. Hopefully it is now airborne.
There at 8 am, no less... I'd have thought you'd get that delivered the same day.
Hey all, mostly a reader here but wanted to pass along this information for anyone else just in case.
I had mine shipped to the store so I could pick it up (busy schedule). However, they don't give you a tracking number and I wanted to really see if the estimated delivery date of December 1 was true or if it would arrive sooner. So a quick google search showed a little trick to track your apple package if you have no tracking number..
Go to UPS.com, select "Track by Reference", put in the phone number you used with the order/your apple ID, and the destination zip code. I did that, and low and behold, a tracking page showed up and noticed that my computer was sitting in Shanghai on Friday with a scheduled delivery date of November 28th!

Hi, Thanks for that but I can't seem to make that work. What format did you use for the number? Order num then phone num or vice versa? Phone plus or minus the country code? If you could put an example I'd be most grateful
Mine was scheduled for delivery on Wednesday, but now pushed to Thursday, presumably so that UPS can make it the most well-travelled iMac possible.
It's headed for southern Ontario. So far, it's been from Shanghai to Anchorage, *back* to Shanghai, and now sits somewhere in Louisville. I imagine it'll head out to New York before travelling back to Shanghai one last time and then getting shipped from there to Toronto, where it can finally make its way by pack mule to me.

My courier doesn't give as detailed info as some of those posted here. All I can see is that my machine was entered into the system in Shanghai on the 21st at 17:10, and that it left Shanghai on the 23rd at 16:11. Given the one hour time difference and two and a half hour flight to Tokyo, assuming it was a direct flight it must be in Japan by now but no updated details to show that as yet.
Also, these updates have so far come long after the listed time.
If it is indeed in Japan already, it's not inconceivable I could get it tomorrow evening... It all depends how quickly they do the turnaround in Tokyo (or possibly elsewhere it could be somewhere else such as Osaka).
The date listed in my e-mail was the 25th, but the 24th is a national holiday, so it would be lovely if it would come tomorrow.

Yours is doing a lot better than mine... Ordered the day before but still stuck in Shanghai!
Didn't FedEx drop Monday so they could deliver on Saturday? I think the only items they now deliver on Monday are priority packages. Did you pay for priority shipping?
I won't be able to track mine until both packages have arrived at the distribution centre in The Netherlands and 'merged' into one package.
Officially the delivery date is Monday 1st but I'm really hoping I'll get this Friday so I have the weekend to set it all up and get everything installed and setup the way I like it.

FedEx Express: Delivers Monday-Saturday
FedEx Ground (business delivery): Monday- Friday
FedEx Home Delivery: Tuesday- Saturday
See how it was shipped- you can always drive and pick it up at will call at your local fedex facility.
Call 800-go-fedex to hold for will call pickup.

Sorry, I meant that you have to put in the phone number associated with the order, not both the order number and phone number (phone number needs to be formatted such that if the number is 345-534-9058 it would be 3455349058). Not sure about the country code and all that, since I'm only in the U.S., but I did put in the area code.
