2,6/8/512GB Are my specs, and I live in the netherlands. Well for starters I know for a fact that people in the united states get their models first, because that's Apple's market. All other countries depend on the demand for that specific country/continent.

My specs are 2.6/16/512 and I live currently in Abu Dhabi, UAE.

Well can't say much, I guess i'll have to wait and see what happens.
 
Here's my tracking info so far:

Wow thats really fast. I'll hope for you, that you don't get a book which somebody has shipped back or something like this.

I doubt its one that someone shipped back since they just allowed those options on the 1st. Maybe they pre built a number of them anticipating the new configuration options.
 
my 07/30 order changed from preparing for shipment to shipped last night!

Estimated delivery date is 08/08 before 12:00 pm.
Good thing the lady gave me free expedited shipping!
 
Oh I should add that the (base model) rMBP that I ordered yesterday from MacMall shipped from stock within a couple of hours of ordering (which happened at night, anyhow). Might be worth considering for someone who's impatient and isn't getting something BTO.
 
2.6/16/512

I ordered a 2.6/16/512 configured Retina MBP on Friday 8/3 at 00:30 EST (tax-free). My Superdrive and Promotional gift card were both shipped in different shipments, coming from MOUNT JULIET, TN and MEMPHIS, TN. My rMBP is currently "Processing Items" which I'm assuming means they are actually manufacturing my computer based on the options I selected. I placed my order the day after the 2.6/517,768 options were added to the base rMBP configuration, and one day after the shipping was reported to drop from 1-2 weeks to 5-7 days. I think it's safe to say that the supply of these new machines is slowly catching up with the demand. The Superdrive and Card should arrive Aug 7. I'm not sure if they shipped the items separately because I choose the "Expedited Shipping" option. Personally, I think it's rather pointless to ship the gift card and Superdrive in separate shipments before the computer. What's more frustrating is that a signature is required for both shipments. Since I probably won't be home that I guess I will be picking them both up from the FedEx facility in town. The rMBP will most likely be shipped from China rather than Tennessee. I live in South Carolina. Hopefully it will report "Preparing for Shipment" on Monday and shipped 2-3 business days as expected for an arrival this week. Needless to say, I'm very excited about the new computer. I'll report back as the status of my order changes this week.

Any Swedish orders here? Mine was delivered from China to Amsterdam and now it's sitting in Apple merging facility somewhere in Netherlands I think. Order status was just updated to "Delivery scheduled by final carrier, see estimated delivery date", so I'm guessing it will be picked up by a carrier on Monday. Which carrier Apple uses for orders to Sweden and how long you think it'll take to get to me?

Ordered my rMBP 2.6/16/256 on Aug 01 at around 5:30pm Est and it also changed to preparing for shipment. Wow that was fast. It would be nice to get it by next weekend (Toronto). Regular shipping BTW.

Woohoo! I ordered mine then too - same specs, but to Chicago, Illinois. Hope to see some movement on my order soon :D
 
Same for me^ Anyone know how long it will take to come to New York City? Estimated arrival on Thursday but I've heard some people get quicker.
 
Mine is going to new york.
Ordered today, Superdrive and Charger converter preparing for shipping just after an hour, Macbook Pro Retina 16gb, 2.6, 512 still on processing.
Either way I am TOO excited.

Not likely. I paid for two day shipping and mine was in Anchorage for over 24 hours.
 
Those who ordered around 07/30, did your MBPr get shipped and are now seeing "Package received after FedEx cutoff" with the current status of "Shipment exception"

well cutoff means that fedex got it after todays flight, the exception is usualy just customs or flight canceled and rescheduled or something they dont have a message for
 
Quick question, when did you guys get charged when BTO? I haven't been charged the two grand yet, just the shipping and the $100 fee for something...
 
I keep getting "UPS could not locate the shipment details for your request. Please verify your information and try again later" when I try tracking the numbers from MacMall. Does anyone know what I might do?
