Edit : Oh I see my error, *shipment* on schedule, not *delivery* on schedule. Guess it's still half across the globe then :(
Yep :) It's probably flying out tonight, with an ETA to be at DHL AMS on Monday. Delivery Tuesday.

No, the apple's estimate was the 28th.

Now, DHL status is at step 2 and I received the SMS from DHL with the new date.
Also the estimate date on the apple order page is changed in 25th.

Lucky! I guess it's all because of the different flight path / arrival time of that 7CP2892 cargo compared to 7CP2893/7CP2894. Your flight left 13:56 on Wednesday, whereas the others left Thursday at 00:46.
 
Oh Yeah!
Personally it's worth the wait, the MBP is really beautiful and the touchbar is interesting! :)

Will the whole procedure go on halt on weekend? I mean customs clearance and such? Or have anyone had movement during weekend? I think my macbook wont arrive in amsterdam until late friday and if they dont do customs on weekends it will be hard to get it earlier than next wednesday
 
Never mind you guys. Apple literally loves playing games with my emotions. So today after calling CS and being assured by a very adamant lady that my computer will be delivered on the 29th and not before (taking into account that my window was 18-25), I made peace with the notion.

Lo and behold, two hours later after the all I get an email from UPS. It's going to be here tomorrow. WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU APPLE.
 
Apple is amazing at getting my hopes up. A tracking number appeared on my order page and I tried putting it in but it came back asking for another number. Called CS, the girl is like, yeah that's for our reference, this shouldn't mean anything to you. I'm like... so why do you give me this number????

Merge-in-transit is a mess at Apple.
I also had it and from the moment the MBP was shown as "delivered" in expeditors.com, on this Monday, I didn't receive any news from that moment, only an estimated delivery on 24 nov.
Then, on Tuesday afternoon, I could see a transporter and an tracking number but it was "Syncreon NL" and the number was the "8xxxxxx" that you can find on the bottom of the bill and still a delivery on 24 nov.
Then, yesterday, when I woke up, the transporter has become UPS, with a correct tracking number, and the delivery the day itself (so no way to anticipate it a couple of days before).
My conclusion is that from the moment UPS has the package, it goes really fast (the package was in Koln around 1 am, in Brussels around 6am and then in front on my house around 1pm).
So keep hopes, it will arrive ;-)

As I said just before, Apple merge-in-transit is a mess and once it's in the hands of UPS, it goes very fast ;-)

No, Tuesday is most likely for delivery, leaving AMS DHL on Monday.

It's looks beautiful.... until that brick is needed to be plugged into the side :(

(I know USB c will become common and no need for it over time)

I would bought a hub that has a cord so i could put it behind the screen :) looks cleaner to have like that, hides all cords that come up from accesories too

That's quite an roller coaster you've been experiencing :/
 
My status changed from "shipment dispatched" into "In Transit to Customer- Shipment on Schedule" ....

What's the difference? and when can I expect to see the tracking actually show movement instead of just info received...
 
Mine just changed into shipment dispatched. I wish I knew which plane it was :F
 
I tried to get some more info from someone at the Apple Store chat support - but they said they're no longer giving out DHL shipment numbers :eek:

"In terms of the Air freight shipping, we can no longer provide those because DHL should have not been giving them out to us in the first place."

"This was because it was causing issues with the status of the orders via www.apple.com/orderstatus"
 
Hey I was just looking around on the apple store wondering what the cost would have been if I would have upgraded some parts of my macbook pro 13" (I ordered the base model)
Because we're waiting this long I constantly start doubting... should I've gone 15", should I've gone silver, Should I realy spend money on a touchbar etc etc....

How were you guys able to upgrade the ssd? For me it only shows 256gb ssd and it doesn't give the option to expand it...
