Something must be wrong. Still at step 1...

We're on the same batch I think. Similar shipment entered into system times (13:17). 7CP2899 perhaps (669kg shipment that arrived last night at 20:43. It should clear customs in the next hours and we'll get our DHL notifications and trackers come alive today before 6pm (maybe even earlier since it arrived last night, and other batches have arrived at 6am and gone through customs the same day by 9pm).

All those that got notifications last night, had deliveries where the shipment notifications came through on a Monday.

Unfortunately due to the weekend, we have to wait until Monday for delivery (unless they make a miraculous Saturday delivery).
 
pretty livid about this whole thing, originally ordered with delivery of 3 - 9th December. No movement.

Coincidentally went into my local apple store (Brighton, UK). they had my EXACT configuration in stock, 13" 512gb and 16gb ram.

NOTE: it was NOT listed in the stores inventory and the sales guy had to go and dig around to see what they had.

Seriously frustrating that i even bothered with preorders and i've just managed to walk in and get it.

Did they happen to have any with 1TB?

I'm right in between you guys at Tuesday, Nov 22, 2016 13:05 - Shipment Information Received

Most likely on the same batch too. What's Apple's delivery estimate for yoj?
 
Thanks, maybe we'll bump into each other. ;-)

If they have mine in stock, I think I'll just go ahead and get it. One thing I'm wondering though is what happens with my AppleCare plan that I bought along with my pre-order? Do I get a refund for that, too, if I have the shipped one sent back? Anyone know?

OK so I found this https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202704 - definitely looks like AppleCare is refundable as well. So if my model is in stock, I will simply forget about the whole silly pre-order business and have it refunded. Why wait until Wednesday?
 
Received shipment notification at 1am this morning. Original delivery window was 25th - 2nd, I'm guessing delivery around Thursday next week (1st).

Home straight!

(15" stock model: ordered the 27th right after the keynote, financing approved the evening of the 28th, hence the delay)
 
"Severe weather conditions have delayed delivery. / Your delivery has been rescheduled for the next business day."

FUUUU...

God dammit.

Nothing to do but wait I guess, but damn it is frustrating. Delivery is expected 11-29 (as per Apple's order page, so hopefully monday, or -dare I hope- saturday?). DHL Express has me at 'Shipment Information Received' as of yesterday (24-11 16:07). If all the info on the thread is to believed (and thanks to everyone and especially jonyiveswhiteroom), it should have arrived in AMS by now, if it was actually in Housebill 7CP2894...

And to add insult to injury, the Amsterdam Apple Store actually has some 15" MBPs ready for pickup today - though not my spec, that one apparently won't be available until next year... Edit:screenshot taken nov 25th, 10:04 AM

Hopefully mine was on the 5Y534 flight, the shipment status coincided with that flight taking off from Shanghai.

It landed about 6am this morning, I watched it land! The air freight tracking numbers for it haven't yet updated, so it's obviously working it's way through the airport. Looking at previous waybills, it seems to take about 6 hours after the plane lands for status updates to happen (i.e to say it's landed etc) and then about 24 hours for it to be in DHLs and customs hands.

If you call them up, you will probably find that they do have the 13/3.3/16/512 in stock as well. I got one from Covent Garden yesterday.

Just got off the phone with CS, apparently no 13/3.3/512 in stock across Manchester. Unlucky me

Interesting even Brighton had
 
I ordered on the 14 nov the 15 base model with 512gb drive. Apple said delivery 4-5 weeks but gave me 20-29dec as the dates. The given dates are actually 5-7 weeks from my order. I have now checked my local store and they have both 15inch models in stock. WTF? Why am I supposed to wait another month for it when they already have them in stock? What a mess. Edit: wrong choice of words.

Edit: forgot to add that the delivery has now changed to 3-4 weeks which is earlier than my given date. I'm in Scotland btw.

OMG! FINALLY! I have 12-15.12. (ordered on the 3. Nov.) as an estimated delivery window. So I am quite happy that you saw some improvement! :D I am still processing though.
 
I literally woke up at 6 a.m. I don't even know why. I feel like a kid on Christmas.

Are you aware you posted your full name, address, etc online? You really don't want to give someone an incentive to pick up the notebook from the driver before he hands it over to you.

Expected: 28th

Recieved the dispatch email on Monday, was hoping to get lucky with a Friday delivery but have seen no update on DHL tracking...

Does anyone know if it's possible to request/pay for a saturday delivery with DHL? Would like to avoid waiting until Monday
