Only the base models, the model in question was a higher spec one which do not appear as available for in-store pickup but which are available in some stores.
More or less 24 hours
The freight from Shanghai is now scheduled for a plane (Flight 5Y 0534)
You're not really driving around though, can reserve for pick up and be done with it same day.
It's easy to have a viewpoint of "That's just the way it is" when you have already, or about to receive your MacBook.
If they had to wait another week I'm sure it would be less understanding.
That seems to match the previous waybill I posted, the 25th ETA seems right.Here's what i'm seeing right now:
Basically seems there are two scheduled cargo flights from PVG to AMS (direct) each day (CZXXX) which arrives at 6am roughly, or CKXXX which arrives 3-4pm in the afternoon. The CZ flights usually clear through recovery and customs with 24hrs and end up in Leipzig by morning. Meaning on the day after you could expect delivery depending on the final destination. So, I would say expect your machine on the 25th (Friday)
You mean "Preparing for Shipment" (P4S)?
There are at least two people (both 11/24 - 12/1 window, 15" stock model) whose order is in P4S. Been there since sometime yesterday, had looped from Processing to P4S back to Processing from Friday til Monday.
Got mine 15" BTO too! Ordered 15 minutes the AS opened, lost between 17th and 22nd of November and here it is.
Thanks guys, was a great time listening how to track trucks and planes
well done! See you with the next update of the MBP
Im to wait 2 weeks for mine, ive not even been charged on my bank yet.
Ive called all the local apple stores within around 1 hours drive. None have the 13" i7 / 16 / 512 in their first delivery.
If anyone comes across one in liverpool area thought, please let us know!
Yes, I mean preparing for shipping.. I'm not the only one so !
My order has been in processing until this morning, then it went in preparing for shipping
Mine left Heathrow about half an hour before you but it reached Reading in 45 minutes. Now it's out for delivery at last. No idea what time it will get here as I've never had a package out for delivery start as late as 13:00 before.
And mine eventually turned up, so I shall bid you all farewell and good luck and shall make my way to the EU new owners thread and look forward to seeing you all there soon....
The funny thing is that mine was in a plane that landed at Luton - I guess so was yours. It'd have taken less time to drive from Luton to Docklands than Luton->Heathrow->Docklands.
Finally some movement on my part, today my order changed from Processing items to Preparing for shipment. I had a lot of problems with my payment but now everything is sorted out. Can't wait! Hope it will change to Shipped this week.
Which model did you order? What is your delivery window? In which county do you live ?
Enjoy! Mine got delivered too, exactly on the last day of the original delivery window. I had doubts, but Apple delivered.
You might receive it earlier than the 5th.
Mine order too is in preparing for shipping (for the same Mac, but with Italian keyboard and 25 Nov - 2 Dec as delivery window), and it looks like 2 other people with 24 Nov - 1 Dec as delivery window are in the same state!
