Think it was locked down so only a few people could update.

The must have gotten there rMBP ;)
 
I have the same order as you. same date, same model, same country (Toronto), and also edu. I hope we will get our computers soon!
Nice, the race is on! :cool:

Do you know if Apple does "shipping preparations" on the weekend? It looks like people with orders from June 18th are getting theirs prepared today, so it might mean that if you cross your fingers ours will reach that state tomorrow - if not, then Monday. Monday is when I have to return my MacBook Air, so I hope it won't be too much longer than that.

I'm pretty sure you can make your money back and profit on ebay.
Why would people spend more money on a computer that they can buy in stores? Or is it really that hard to get them in the stores now? When they first came out I got mine a couple days later and received calls the following weeks from stores I called that got them in stock and asked if I still was looking for one.

I think by the time the auction ends on eBay and the shipment is delivered, several stores will have gone through a few stocks of it. The only reason I ordered mine online is because of the customization, but he will be selling a base model that's available in store.

----------

I must have gotten mine a week late. I ended up calling Apple and they just issued me the code.

The next day it showed up :rolleyes:
Does that mean you got two codes... i.e. $200? ;)

Well anyone who ordered a low end 2.3/8/256 is now one spot closer. I've been checking the inventories of my two local Apple stores almost daily for rMBP's. Once again today they told me they didn't have any. Then five minutes later one called and said they actually did. I raced to the store and now it's all mine. Called Apple and cancelled (that's what clicking the cancel button tell you'd to do). I now have $200 worth of gift cards ($100 of which I paid for) because of the EDU special but it's my first Mac so I'm sure I'll use it. Good luck to you all!
So you had to pay $100 for your second gift card? You can't return it?
 
See my signature - it's in Shanghai right now!

Hmm...seems you and I ordered the same machine 2.7/16/512 (ordered early AM 06-15-2012). Today mine #finally went into "Preparing for Shipment."

Why do I smell an EPIC FAIL around the corner? (>_<)
 
Anyone with a June 12 base model order STILL PROCESSING? Mine is. Estimated delivery is July 11 to July 17. It certainly won't be here on July 11.

I'm not the only one, am I?

Not at all happy with my Apple online store experience this time around. Seeing orders placed two weeks later than mine being delivered is really frustrating.

I ordered a base model on 6/11 and the estimated delivery dates were June 26-July 6. It arrived July 2nd after being in preparing for shipping for five days. I think because so many of these are being shipped to the retail stores, they are not shipping them very fast from the Apple Online Store.

Best of luck--it will come, just not very fast!

Use the APPLE STORE app from your iphone or Ipad to check your status. There is no cancellation button that you can inadvertently hit. Problem solved.
 
15/6 still processing, 2.2/8/256 model. Getting rather annoyed now as it is looking increasingly likely that I won't be getting this within my shipping estimate. Needs to be shipped by Wednesday next week to stand a chance given the long UK shipping times from China (like 7 days).

Now I am getting pretty annoyed. Anybody know what the procedure is for Apple (UK experience really) if they fail to meet their delivery estimates?
 
Hello all :)
Ordered on 16/6
Ships: 3 - 4 Weeks
Delivers Jul 17 - Jul 23 via Standard Shipping
Still processing.
 
Exactly the same date as me, and exactly the same specs. I don't have an estimated date as it's a business CTO, so fingers crossed I can at least get it on July 16 :( Lucky for me, I'm in Singapore, so shipping should take a day/two

Mine has gone to "Preparing for Shipment"!
6/15 order, 2.6/16/768
 
Am I the only one who ordered on June 11th shortly after the store came back online and still hasn't moved from processing?

2.7Ghz | 16GB RAM | 768GB SSD

The shipping estimate was 3 - 5 weeks and the third week just past. Two more weeks to go while I read about people receiving their laptops early on this forum. :mad:

This prompted me to check my order status one more time, as I'm in the exact same boat (2.7 / 16GB / 768GB, ordered on the 18th). Sure enough, it's finally preparing for shipment :D
