Really, that soon!? Mine shipped today as well, but expected delivery date is August 23rd.

Did you order the gift card and/or accessories? (Me: gift card + Ethernet adapter.)

Yeah, I had called Apple to upgrade my shipping and got it free because I just mentioned that the standard delivery seemed too long :)

----------


I also had the back to school gift card... It just got delivered today. No other accessories.
 
Finally after a long wait, my MacBook Pro arrived today with UPS. Apple has surely tested my patience, refreshing Apple Store, Exp.o and UPS countless times.

Here is a summary of my order processing:

BTO rMBP 2.7/16/512 EDU

Ordered 7/26/2012
Paid 7/27/2012
Preparing 8/6/2012
Shipping 8/8/2012
Merged 8/13/2012
Delivered 8/14/2012

Estimated time 1-2 weeks
Total time shipping 2 weeks, 5 days

My rMBP is pre-installed with ML and has a LSN screen. Have not found any flaws, will have to evaluate coming two weeks.

The merge with giftcard added extra two days, the giftcard came is a seperate envelope. I don't understand why they bother sending the MBP to the Apple facility as they could have easily sent the GC by registered mail.

Btw I live in the Netherlands.
 
My went to SHIPPED that was less than a day from preparing for shipment!

Mine did too, I'm so excited.

I ordered on 8/9, it stayed in processing all weekend and when I checked it this morning at 5am, (8/14) it was preparing for shipment. Two hours later I received an email saying that it had shipped with an estimated arrival of 8/17 by 10:30 am. So that's 8 days total when it gets here Friday.

Mine seems to be super slow, even though it is going to be merged with a gift card. The worst thing is that I can't track it on the Expo site or at UPS :p.

did you do expedited? You ordered 3 days after me and getting it 3 days before me

I saw that too, guess they aren't automatically giving expedited shipping anymore.

Wow interesting, my gift card shipped yesterday by itself and it won't merge with the rMBP. The rMBP hasn't shipped yet, I'm actually glad... I don't want to wait more time for the card to merge with the computer and add more time, ha!

They don't do it in US.

I got my GiftCard in 2 days of ordering my rMBP via USPS registered mail.
