The rep I spoke with said they will expedite my order but he also mentioned that current orders of my configuration is on 3-4 week wait which makes me believe I'll probably be waiting for at least a week.

I can keep this one until I get a replacement but my issue is that I need to install Win 7 and configure few programs for work that take a long time to setup and I dont want to waste my time when I will have to redo it all over again.

Just do it, set it up the way you want on your Windows partition, then when the new one comes, use Winclone to duplicate your bootcamp partition into the new one.

Thats assuming your issue is a bootcamp issue, if its a VM issue then thats even easier. No problem, and its the type of thing you can just setup to transfer then go to bed, and have it all done for you.

Agreed.
 
I ordered the same setup on 6/20. Hopefully I'll get mine soon.

No prepare for shipment? straight to shipping from processing? :confused:

Yeah. I was checking the status the day before around noon, and it still said processing. Then the next day I wake up to an email that says that one of your items have shipped. So either it went into prepare for shipment from the 10 hours I wasn't checking the site, or it went straight to shipping.
 
it sounds like im prettyed "*********" if i decideto order a retina today...july 7th///

Honesly unless you're in need of a custom configuration, I'd try your liCal Apple store or retailers like MacMall or Newegg for a base model.

It's going to be a few weeks at least of waiting. I was late to the game and ordered the 28th. Still processing.
 
Just got my credit card charged!!! ITS COMING TO ME!!

JUNE 11, 2.7/16/768 3-5 week elitist PREPARING FOR SHIPMENT

Jealous! If I don't get "Preparing" by Monday, I may give them a call.

----------

Not me! 6/11 order (about 30 mins after the store opened), 2.6/16/768, shipping (expedited) to the Western US. Still processing.

I'm in the same boat at you, we should call next week if it doesn't start to move.
 
Any base model rMBP ordered on or after the 17th that have shipped or are in preparing for shipment?
 
FDX28 landed at PANC at 14:17 AKDT, after departing at 22:10 CST.

FDX48 is still in the air and now has accurate times (it seems that it has to get into US airspace for the departure from ZSPD to be accurate), and is estimated to land at KMEM at 23:56 CDT, after departing at 22:22 CST.

My shipment is now listed as having gone into transit by FedEx at 22:37 CST. Still isn't showing up on Expeditors.

Edit: FlightAware may still be inaccurate, though, actually - it's showing estimated position.

Someone else I know had a different In transit time, and their tracking is already showing Anchorage.

I'm thinking we're both on FDX48, and we completely skip Anchorage.

Or, I'm wrong, and they just haven't scanned the pallets yet.

16GB 1600MHz DDR3L SDRAM

I called last week and spoke to apple and asked if there was any way to expedite order. Was told no there wasn't. Yet my order shipped and will be delivered Tuesday.
 
Ordered 6.16 @5PM and still in processing mode. :( Will this status every change? :mad:

2.3/16Gb/256Gb

If it makes you feel any better, I ordered on June 21st (after you), same model, also in Miami, and I am still stuck in processing. So at least people aren't getting ahead of you for that same model if they ordered after you.
