Still no change today. Debating seeing if there's any available at my local Apple store and canceling my order.

I realize I'm not to my "estimated delivery date" but the fact that orders placed DAYS after mine are shipping out before mine is kind of ridiculous.
 
Something doesnt seem right.

Ha, Apple just wants to make sure we really want the rMBP before receiving it, so they make us wait 2-4 weeks to scrutinize our purchase decision in every way possible.
 
My first post...

Order mine on June 14, 11PM (EST) - BTO/2.6/16/512 - 3-4 Weeks - est. delivered by July 17 - 23 (to Toronto, Canada)

What happen was on June 17 @ 9pm, I called inquiring about shipping, hoping Apple will bump me to 2 days. They won't. Then I asked about Magsafe 2 converter, and they are willing to giving to me for free. that's $9. Still something.

-- @ 9:30pm - my rMBP was still Processing Items (correction, I wrote Processing shipment)

Then,
Thu June 17, 11pm - Preparing for Shipment (almost $h!t my pants)
Fri June 18, 8am - Shipped!!! (... have to change pants, someone cancelled their order? lol)

-- Estimate Delivery is July 4 (if not for Canada day, I might have it on July 3)
Jun 29, 2012 10:57 PM In transit SHANGHAI CN
Jun 29, 2012 10:50 PM International shipment release - Import SHANGHAI CN
Jun 29, 2012 3:06 PM Left FedEx origin facility SHANGHAI CN
Jun 29, 2012 12:17 AM Shipment information sent to FedEx
Jun 29, 2012 12:03 PM Picked up SHANGHAI CN


... Is anyone on the same plane going to North America (or Toronto?), How do you find out the flight#?

I have the same shipping details. I'd like to figure out which flight as well.
 
Can people tell their experience of waiting time while the status is Preparing for Shipment? thanks
 
Ordered on the 13th 11am AEST (2100 EDT 12/6) stock model, and it is still processing. Was hoping for it earlier than the 9-16 July estimate, but it's looking unlikely. :(

Wow! you're unlucky! I ordered 14th 6pm AEST, fully upgraded model and it shipped yesterday!
 
Ordered on the 14th, changed to Preparing for Shipping early this morning. Still preparing. 2.6/16/512. I'm located in Vermont.

Exact same deal with me. Hoping that it ships out over the weekend rather than waiting there until Monday. Getting obsessive :) Located in DC
