See ya later folks, it's been real. If it weren't for some of you guys back on the "Waiting for skylake mpb" i woulda had caved in. Cheers.
 
So finally got mine. DHL needed me to call to verify the address, and I said I'll pick it up from their office as it's just easier. Call cost me £6.61...

Talked to Apple to reimburse that because of the inconvenience (Which I thought was only fair?). Anyway, they said "No, we can't do that", I could only laugh on a £2500 laptop... So I asked if they could just give me an email address I could write to as I understand they can't really do much on the chat thing. "We don't have an email address" I was told, "You can write to...", again I laugh. The biggest technology company in the world wants me to send them a letter!

I thought it was a pretty reasonable request but apparently not! Had to drive an hour to get it, but at least it's finally here!

Oh you got 2.12.? :( I am glad for you :D but mine was collected at the same time but they state 5.12.16 with TNT. Let's hope that they arrive on Friday :D
 
Yep I've had 'shipment dispatched' and now this is the second status of 'In Transit to customer' which I can assume (or hope) it's already sat at AMS waiting for customs

Same here. I´m tracking this flight and housebill. I've the same status : shipped yesterday, then dispatched, and now that the flight is approaching AMS, I have "in transit to customer, in time". If it's actually that flight we could have it on friday. If not it will be on tomorrow flight. We´ll know in a few hours if it has actually landed in AMS.
 
I'm still at processing items. Ordered 8th November, pick up date of 20th December.

I doubled the RAM on the base spec 13 inch with Touch Bar (space grey).

I'm trying my best to be patient, but I'm checking more and more frequently.
 
Hey, so I've been for searching around for dongles and hubs for quite a good time and I've decided that I'm gonna buy a Satechi USB-C hub that I will take with me and use it wherever I go, as it is small and portable. Then I'll buy an Arc Hub by Bourge Design which I'll place at my desk at home, as I really like it's design and I think it will fit really well as a "table fixed Hub". However the latter one will only be delivered on the first months of 2017.
Here you have the links to their websites so you can have a look.

Satechi: http://www.satechi.net/index.php/type-c-pass-through-usb-hub-space-gray

The Satechi has a usb c port (so you don't lose the one you are giving up for the Hub) 2 USB ports and SD card slots

Arc Hub by bourge design:
https://www.bourgedesign.com/pre-order

This one has 2 USB-C ports, 2 USB ports, 1 HDMI (4K, 30Hz), 1 SD Card slot and 1 Mini Display Port.

Howevwr, If I think I'm missing anything I'll probably buy some Apple dongles, if not I'll search for more hubs; and of course I'm up for any recommendations and other products that any of you know, as it would be of great help too.

I do have a question too; Should I buy an extension cable for my MBP 15" TB charger or can I use a 6 year old one I have at home?
I second this. I got the Satechi multiport adapter (without sd card slot) and for quick data exchange with non usb-c devices a Mach Xtreme Barium dual USB stick.

About the extension cord: I've read similar questions before and the old one should fit. No reason to buy a new one if you don't need the old one. I have two old cables (10 and 6 years) one of which I will use. Have to wait until tonight to see if it really does fit :)

I order the 15" stock (512 GB SSD, Radeon 455). I just got a message from DHL saying it's on the truck!
It's been a long wait and I'm glad it's coming to an end.
I wanted to buy a new MBP last year, but the updated 15" was too pricy for me, considering the outdated hardware. Then I waited and waited and waited. Now I ended up paying even more. I hope it's worth it. If it lasts five to six years again I'd say "yes".

I'll get back to you with the extension cord tonight.

It's the same, I bought a fresh new Apple original one from an eBay seller for 4 quid! I wasn't going to pay £20 for one direct from Apple.
