MacBook Pro Late 2016 EU shipping

[qnap]

Congratulations!

When was your delivery window? Is it a DHL shipment.

(Sorry if you've already posted these details)

It was a DHL delivery so no window, apple's window was 17 Nov - 24 Nov

Still "Processing" my order from 31st October :-(

Have to say that after all my moaning about everything, I ordered the MBP several hours after the keynote and despite being given a window of delivery going up to 1st December, then will not only have delivered (assuming it arrives today) 1.5wks early, but also on the first day the machines are actually available in the EU so can't have too many complaints.

BUT

I only knew they were delivering today by keeping tabs on the DHL tracker. I've not received any other communication about it, which makes me think there will be an awful lot of folk who are not obsessing about delivery in the same way we are, and will be annoyed to receive the card-through-the-door later today.

Just spoke to them after seeing that the shipment is in Zh at TNT.

I spoke to TNT this morning at 9am and they said that it's feasible they make it today but not sure (perhaps they meant Zh, though). It depends on how long it takes them to get them out of the pallets etc... I believe they ship out of Buchs.

Yeah, if it is in ZH it is probably at Urdorf, that is also where Swiss customs is, so I'd expect it to be there for now. I don't think that they will send it to Buchs to send it back to Zurich for people from Zurich, for Basel I am not sure. But we'll see later.

[Gonzaless]

Great, i think you are the first (that is what she said ). my one is still in Gatwick. your one delivered from gatwick ?

5-9 december :-(((
Hopefully apple manage it to deliver a bit earlier now when they've handeled the mass of "pre-orders" after the shop went re-online (?)

I finalle got through and Apple Support told me the package is stuck somewhere between Eindhoven (?) and Leipzig, it cannot be tracked because apparently it's stuck in customs.

Are they ****ing kidding? Really? Unbelievable.

 

[schmidti91]

I feel like the delivery window after Nov 28 - Dec 6 is directly Dec 5 - 9 or is there something in between?

 

[pookitoo]

just receive mine in France I'm doing a clean install !

 

[CD3660]

It was a DHL delivery so no window, apple's window was 17 Nov - 24 Nov

So they managed to deliver with 2 days to spare (to the later of Apple's 2 dates). That's interesting because my experience in the past has always been that Apple beat, or at least achieve, the earliest date that they quote at the time of the order.

 

[Earl475]

Now my money is finally gone...time to receive that shipment!

 

[hendl]

That's really irritating.

Theres a 5-9Dec but mine shows 6-12Dec. Id assume (or hope) its shipped with 5-9's

 

[Toadsfather]

Those people exist??

They must be journalists or Microsoft staff checking out the competition

 

[tbene7]

come on dhl dude. where are u?

mine is with courier since 10:16 accordingt o DHL Express and 9:56 according to DHL Paket... confusing

 

[WB94]

This is where the paranoia kicks in.

I'm sure I just heard the door... no one there.

Do I risk having a shower? I don't think so, seems too risky.

Maybe I could watch a movie or play a game to make time go faster, but what if I don't hear the door?

Never mind, I will just sit here in complete silence with a cup of tea. I will not move from this spot until it arrives.

Man, this could be a long day...

Yes indeed. Was having the same thought.

Next time I'll buy a laptop from AliBaba. I'm pretty sure the delivery won't take longer!
