22nd June Order here to the UK. Still Processing for me. 2.7/16/512

Called apple to ask about expedited shipping and they refused, saying nobody else can get that as it is a new model!

Same to me, I called yesterday to catch up the expedite shipping (paying, of course) but they told me that is impossible. I don't know why, it's just a processing status... strange
 
I tracked on expeditors and it says

Freight and Docs Received - #xxxxxxx
SHANGHAI, CHINA TO LONDON, ENGLAND
Freight Received w/Docs: 14-Jul-2012 02:09:00 GMT


what does that mean????

Mine says the same, I think we are on the same pallet. It just means the shipment has been handed to the carrier I think. It's still in China. If you look under the events tab it's says it's due in London on Thursday.

Edit: It's now booked onto a Lufthansa cargo flight.

Must be nice, my order from June 27th to Niagara Region is still processing. What config did you get?

2.7/16/512. To replace my 2.6/8/512 which I ordered as soon as the apple store came online on the 11th. I didn't realize ram was not upgradeable so apples letting me keep my current rMBP until I get the new one.
 
I'm in London. Ordered base rMBP on 13th June, shipped 11th July, Delivers by 19th July.
Sometimes you can wait so long delivery ceases to be exciting. :D

I haven't been waiting nearly as long as you but I already am losing excitement for this machine, doesn't even feel like I'm ever going to actually see it ship.

My order 22.6. (2.6/16/512) shipped today (4 hours ago) EST deliver 24.7.

Any one know where I can track flight/package for Europe? :eek: Thanks

Who's handling your delivery, UPS? Go to http://wwwapps.ups.com/WebTracking/track, enter the code from your Shipment Status page on Apple (mine begins with 1Z, if that helps) and it should show you.

Others are using expo.expeditors.com, but mine doesn't seem to appear on there.
 
Got it.

Got it on the 12th in the early morning. Only problem now is that there is a issue with updating iLife. AppStore thinks iLife is registered to another iTunes. So, far have called apple twice. Second guy told me to fill out the form on the website, which is what i originally wanted to do, but path i went done on the apple support site only allowed me to call. Spending to much time on this.

Error message i'm getting is: You have updates available for other accounts. To update this application, sign in to the account you used to purchase it.

Wonder if I will have the same issue with mountain lion.
 
Right? If I buy this Applecare plan, all in all I'll be paying about the same cost as the retail price of the MacBook model that I bought ($2400) :p we got an awesome deal :D

Now let's see who gets their MacBook first tomorrow :cool:

Mine just arrived!!! Did I win?!

Opening the box now; talk to you all later!

Dreams do come true!

You win! :D glad you got it, how's it working?

Mine's been out for delivery for about 3 hours, from Minneapolis. The city I'm in is about 40 minutes away, so it should be coming pretty soon. I'm guaranteed delivery by noon, so any time now :p

I had the same issue. I resolved it by signing out of the app store app, quoting, starting the app an signing in again. Then the updates installed.

It is absolutely gorgeous and perfect in every way (!!!); I'm currently installing all of my old apps and am pretty amazed at how fast programs open / install / etc! (upgrading from 2009 MBP model) -- Although I'm no longer a huge gamer, I've been wanting to try Skyrim for the longest time and will finally be able to do so today!

I'll be crossing my fingers that your's comes soon; the last couple of hours are killer!

Thanks to everyone for easing the pain of this terrible wait!
