Finally! Just got a tracking number with UPS. My new rMBP will arrive by the end of the day on Tuesday. Ordered 7/2. Glad this nightmare wait is nearly over!
I ordered two 2.6/16/512 rMBPs on the same day, at the same time, shipping to the same address, both via the Education store. One went into Preparing but the other hasn't. What gives?
Apple's idiotic order processing system is a scandal. Once I get them both and they both check out fine, I'll write them a tersely worded (though by no means rude or hostile) letter of what I think of this aberration where people get their rMBPs in all sorts of nonsensical orders, like the untold numbers of cases where someone has been waiting two, three weeks already, and someone else orders the same thing and gets it shipped three or four days later.
They always tell you that it's first in, first out. That's a complete lie, through and through. And rather than acknowledge that and simply apologize, they deny even the remote possibility of this happening, when it fact it has happened many times and will keep on happening unless they get their act together. Never mind that they don't return calls or reply to emails as far as I've experienced so far. Their customer service stinks.

Preparing to ship, sometime in the past 30 minutes I'd guess. Never got any email from Apple.

Mountain Lion installed, now its screaming!!
Some settings got screwed up since it came with Lion...so my ML restore left some issues. I am restoring again. Should be good to go.

I don't know if it is that big of a conspiracy. I'm guessing (and, mind you, this is only a guess) that they orders come up in various production lines that are all handling varying numbers of computers. Order at the right time and you get sent to a relatively non-busy line and your orders are shipped fast. Order at the wrong time and you are going to hit the long side of Apple's projection.
At least, that is what I'm hoping, and not that they are just randomly bequeathing laptops to their customers.
It came installed with Lion. But mine shipped out too soon after ML was released. It was probably already built by the time ML came out.
You will get the email when your mac actually ships. Congrats by the way! Mine will be here Monday I think. It just arrived at Memphis a few minutes ago.
My shipment has been released from customs in amsterdam yesterday at 10:33am. But nothing happened ever since and it's now 7:34am the next day. The bridge point site still gives me the note that the items dispatched from different locations and will be merged.
Anybody had this as well?

Mine left on a Saturday and was available for me to pick up at Fedex Office (as I had requested) the following Monday. I'm on the East coast too, so it wasn't just a short flight over.
Awesome! Well, we shall see. They should be shipped to the East Coast by Wednesday at the latest, I presume. Even got free expedited shipping because they failed to send me the gift card codes. Hope the two rMBPs come together. It would be a shame if they came on different flights.
Anyway, for the record, in case anyone's wanting to know:

This is about a week earlier than I expected.
Given this time frame, I'm expecting Fedex is going to move it over the weekend.

I don't think they are "catching up"...
I'm still waiting for my 7/04 Order to change the Status into Preparing for shipment... nothing happened yet! This is really not fair and ridiculous...
Fedex does seem to move international packages during the weekend. If you go to Fedex's web page and enter your tracking number, you should see where it currently is. However, once it hits your country (US?), it'll have to go through customs, and I think customs only work during weekdays.
Shipped 28th July
Est Delivery = 1st Aug
Does the expo site only work for folks in the US?
