The fedex one is more accurate. Once they have it picked up by fedex, the fedex date is a safe bet.
Im without words..... this Imac is absolutely stunning. I'm in love with this beast! every single day worth waiting for!
I am so happy! Just got my new iMac today, actually, I'm writing this email from it, amazed by its fantastic screen, couldn't ask for more. The screen is perfect, of course I didn't used it in complete darkness, don't know about backlight bleeding yet. I LOVE IT!!
No problem here. I ordered mine on october 1 (23:57), and it arrived today.

I am in Brazil. Ordered it on octuber 1, estimate delivery btw 24-31. Delivered today.
I dont understand how it can take 8 days to ship an imac within the continental US. Mine shipped last Friday from California. I am in PA. The tracking hasnt been updated since it shipped last friday. I am getting more impatient and annoyed. I have ordered macs before and always had them within 3 days even with the free shipping. It feels like you dont pay for the expedited shipping they purposely sit on it for a week just to annoy.

The only change I made to mine was the 256gb ssd. It shipped the day after i ordered but for some strange reason it takes 7-8 days for Fedex to move it from California to Pennsylvania.
Taking too long to ship my iMac...
I maxed CPU, gpu and upgraded to 1tb Fusion drive... I'm in Brazil btw... Waiting a hole month and was supposed to deliver tomorrow and now it was postponed for another month...
Great! I saw people complaining about backlight bleeding and dead pixels, was scared to death to unbox my iMac, and come on! My screen is as dark as yours, true darkness! I can imagine how happy you are çause I'm too!
Mine said 2-4 weeks (from 7-10 days) when I added the 512GB SSD option... thing is, I just went back and looked at the configurator and the exact same spec machine as mine has now gone back to 7-10 days!
I wonder if this will speed mine order up... if not that means someone could order their iMac next monday and still get it before me (I ordered on Tuesday)

I'm in the same situation. I almost feel like cancelling and re-ordering the exact same model to speed things up. Anyone else had this before? What was the outcome?
I reckon it was something to do with SSD supplies... perhaps they anticipated higher demands after the Apple event or got an extra delivery so shipping times were adjusted.
I am hoping that they use a 'first come first served' system so that if the parts become available, they will ship orders earlier

Are you in the UK or Europe?

I'm in Brazil. But look what just happened to me.
I ordered an iMac 18th sept. And one week later Apple updated the iMacs hardware. I called Apple to make sure I was going to receive my iMac assembled with the new hardware. But that would delay the shipping for obvious reasons. Ok... I did that. I was supposed to receive that machine yesterday. But if was notified the delivery date changed to 18th-25th October...
I had to call apple again, because that delay was unacceptable... And because that I'm getting a AirPort Express for free. In some way was good to be delayed.
Ahh ok, I wondered if you were in the UK or Europe and that's why you had delays but as you say it's because they are shipping an updated machine.
Airport Express for free! Well that's a positive I suppose! Have they said when it will ship?
I'm a little worried as the HDD in my MBP is almost dead and for some reason, Time machine won't back up properly (since 10.8.5) :-(
I've done a manual backup of important docs, work files etc but just worried the whole thing will stop working before the iMac arrives!
