Anyone else get charged $16.05??? Is this the hold?
I've been sitting at the local FedEx facility in Shanghai for 57 hours- no movement.
A few people have reported this charge appeared on their cards. Some people have said it is the expedited shipping charge. If your computer were shipping, it should be the hold for the full amount of your computer.
Happily typing this up on my new 2.3/16/256 MBPr. FedEx delivered this morning, a full 2 days ahead of estimated delivery!
And now it's shipped.2.7/16/512 ordered on 6/24 is now "Preparing for Shipment."
Lucky! Mine departed Mephis an hour and a half before you and that's the last I heard of it... I wonder what happened? It's been like 20 hours since an update in the tracking... Maybe it's on its way for delivery?Happily typing this up on my new 2.3/16/256 MBPr. FedEx delivered this morning, a full 2 days ahead of estimated delivery!
According to that, it appears to have left Memphis (for someplace closer to you, hopefully). Look at the similar line for Shanghai, and then take comfort in the line above it (hint: it's not Shanghai).Apparently in transit in Memphis for almost 24 hours soon. Is it going by truck to Canada or something?![]()
And now it's shipped.Estimated delivery is 7/20...significantly before the promised delivery window.

Yeah, I didn't word that very well... I meant that apparently it is in transit from Memphis.According to that, it appears to have left Memphis (for someplace closer to you, hopefully). Look at the similar line for Shanghai, and then take comfort in the line above it (hint: it's not Shanghai).
English is a language?English is not my first language, nor my second, nor my third... I use that as an excuse.![]()

By the way Mister iOS, it looks like our laptops are siblings, they left the assembly line side by side, shipped out together, and were together all the way to Memphis when they were separated... But at least we know now that we are related - if you have a problem with your laptop, let me know, as I'll likely have the same issues. Did you do the ghosting test? Is there any squeaking? I doubt it, it's such a great machine!![]()

Update: I just talked to Fedex via their support chat. They told me the package just cleared customs in Ontario and is scheduled for delivery tomorrow (1 day early). The Fedex chat is a great service! So fast, the rep gave me an answer within a minute of connecting and answered all my other questions quickly and accurately. She was very polite also. Beats calling in - I got all my info with the chat probably in the time it would have taken me to get to the option to talk to a rep via the telephone.
I was surprised that it shipped out of memphis last night at all, i wasn't aware that FedEx continued freight operations on a sunday. lucky though.

With Apple products, I've often been amazed at how packages can zip through (US) FedEx systems. When tracking my packages, I'll often see them hit 2-3 FedEx distribution centers (or more?), just before delivery. However, if it's not too expensive, I'll often opt for the upgraded shipping.I was surprised that it shipped out of memphis last night at all, i wasn't aware that FedEx continued freight operations on a sunday. lucky though.
