Lucky man ! What was your initial delivery period?

Original ETA was 23-30th November, when I placed my order a few hours after the keynote, on the past 27th October.

Since it was actually shipped (from china or whatever) the ETA was always 30th November.

It's 2 items. The laptop and the USB-C to USB-A dongle, so I guess I had to wait a few more days for the items to be merged (had that status for a while). I checked UPS details, it is arriving tomorrow. My god, this will be a fun weekend!

The apple store seems to be offline... who knows maybe they'll change all our orders to being shipped
 
Looks like a lot of the 15" may be getting shipped out before 13" ?

I have 2 13" on their way. They were shipped on Tuesday after an estimate of 25 - 2nd. It's a merge order (USB C to USB) so no tracking yet but the last time I checked I had 30th estimated.

Unfortunately now my order status page takes me to the "We're updating the apple store" page...
 
What the hell is black friday? It's the second time I see that today...

So sales..., maybe they'll give a better price for the usb-c adapters with hdmi and usb?

smooth, another update. now I have tracking info.

It will be sent by UPS, and my order is currently on Italy for some reason (I live in Portugal).

Scheduled Delivery: Friday, 11/25/2016, By End of Day

Wait, wut? Apple's website has 30th for the ETA.

I guess you were on 7CP2893 / 7CP2894. That was "Recovered at airport" at 21:11, which is right around when you posted.

7CP2895 flying on 5Y 0534 is currently in the air and carrying some of the MBP's for users here. I'm starting to think mine somehow is on there too, since I haven't got any updates tonight and have a Monday expected delivery, not tomorrow (dispatchd email on Tuesday 5pm).

I was literally going to say that they've landed together! Haha nice one @jonyiveswhiteroom
[doublepost=1480024613][/doublepost]They could have merged them and will dispatch tomorrow morning for a delivery by end of day? *dreaming*

That cargo flight seems to have ended up sending some stock to UPS (it seems merged, delayed orders are ending up on the Air Cargo flights, and passed on to UPS - probably cheaper, since the flight goes through Russia etc), whereas we're going to be going to DHL AMS. So different paths altogether I guess.

Still hoping for a miracle and seeing it leave AMS and head to Leipzig at 1-2am, but in reality, I should have received some update by now.

Hi again. I'm in the same boat. Apple tracking now saying tomorrow but no update on DHL.
 
What's the status say on Apple? What was your original delivery window and time of shipped notification from Apple?
It was originally 24.11-01.12. It shipped on Tuesday and I had an estimation of 29.11. Yesterday that changed to 25.11 I've been on in transit on schedule and now back to shipped. DHL shows the order only and CS have no clue where my machine is. :(
 
Oh yeah now I see

Why don't they give the option to upgrade the ssd in the first model that is shown? The second one is exactly the same as the first but just with an upgraded ssd which can be ipgraded further...

Whatever, I'm just trying to find things to do while I keep on updating my email hoping to receive an update from apple...

If I would look at myself lately I think it must look kind of sad

Yeah as I said the top 13" can be upgraded, it is about £200 more than the base (Which is about the cost of the difference between the 256gb and 512gb SSD's). So there isn't any point in offering the cheaper one with upgrades as it would be the same cost as the top one by the time you upgrade the SSD.

How do you guys even know these things. My god.

But anyways, I'd be happy if it comes tomorrow. Have an exam between 11 am and 1pm. UPS the last time it delivered something to me was at 11.07pm. Hope they deliver it before of after that time xD
 
7CP2899 has also arrived at AMS btw

Guess it will be sent to customs and clear by the afternoon Friday. Maybe that's the one I'm actually on in the end, considering I don't have any new DHL updates with the other 2 flights that have been recovered tonight.

To be clear, I'm not waiting on a merge-in-transit order. I ordered a 13" BTO only. So 7CP2899 on the recently landed CA 1033 does look most likely to be my shipment. In any case, DHL should update tomorrow with something.

That means people should wait ~72hrs from initial shipment notification to see something in their DHL trackers. Those on merge orders may as well buy a good book, it's going to take longer (and usually fly out on 5Y XXXX flights (Air Cargo International), going via Russia and then being dispatched by UPS (must be cheaper for Apple I assume). Not so many of us seem to be on this unfortunately longer path.

Yeah I was tempted to buy a couple dongles but there was no way I would take the sligthest chance to delay the order. I've subscribed to SMS notifications from DHL so I don't have to refresh every 2 sec...

You could always do separate orders.

I ended up buying the power coord extention and parallels after. They arrived last tuesday. If I knew, I would had bought the usb c to a adapter separatly.

Ah I actualy thought there was no other difference besides the 512gb instead of 256gb in those two 13"
