Cleared customs in Koeln after 12 hours and somehow the delivery is now 2 days later by end of day on 20/06 rather than 18/6. Fedex seem to be doing a much better job for those in the US the UPS is doing for the EU. 5 Total days to get from Germany to the Uk, not very positive.
 
package just delivered to my office's mailroom. Coming up shortly. Me so excited. 1 business day early, got to love fed ex.

I am in the US and it took 3 days to ship mine (when I purchased it was 1-3 days to ship) and now after it was released from customs it has been sitting in Alaska for 24 hours. Might get it sometime next week. Fedex sucks!

Hopefully. Mine says departed at 4:05. The flight is scheduled to arrive at 2:09 AM so hopefully our MBAs are on it.

has your tracking info updated since yesterday afternoon? the last scan on mine is the 'in transit' scan when it left anchorage yesterday.

Mine was on that same flight from anchorage to Newark. Haven't seen any activity since leaving AK tho. From the order of the scans it looks like they're scrambling to get these delivered quickly. I'll keep my fingers crossed for a Friday surprise. Thnx.

they were twins separated at birth, so sad..... But they will go to live happy lives
 
Mine has changed today to On FedEx vehicle for delivery! So excited!!

And it's not 3 days earlier.. it's 1 business day earlier ;)
 
OK, just shipped today. On the apple orders page, there is no response if I click the track button, but the drop down menu gets me three numbers, differing only by one digit, all of which get me the same info. I have the education voucher, MBA 13, superdrive and app for MBA13?? I assume that there are three elements to the order which will be merged at some point but don't understand why each lists all the items, rather than each reference being for one part of the order.
 
Does anyone know if there is a difference between "In Transit" and "Left Fedex facility?" I've never seen in transit before.
 
FYI -

Anyone who ordered with the 'Back to School' $100 iTunes Giftcard check your accounts! I was charged the $100 when it was supposed to be 'free'. After speaking with Apple they credited me back the $100. I first thought it was a temporary account hold, but it stuck and posted on my account. Hopefully this might help at others who might otherwise be unaware.
