Has anyone here ordered an BTO 13" tbMBP on 12. October (Delivery window 4-5 weeks, 22.-29. December) and seen updates to their order yet? I was hoping since so many orders are processed earlier that I will see some action on mine soon, too. Did not even get charged though.
 
Just to update those ordering through resellers (especially in the UK) - it seems there are delivery issues.

I ordered a 15" TB MBP 2.9Ghz / 1TB / 460 at 9am on October 28th from a reseller in Jersey (in the Channel Islands). I was told to expect late November / early December delivery dates which I thought was fair enough, but just had a call from them to say that their supplier is having issues and that I should expect delivery in mid January now! To say I'm frustrated is an understatement!

Not sure if this issue is specific to my reseller (hopefully it is) but have seen questions from those ordering through resellers and not much in the way of answers so thought it might be of use. The lack of visibility (e.g. no tracking numbers and whatnot) is killing me!

Good luck all.

Mid January :eek: jeeeeezus that'll give me nightmares.

I ordered through a reseller on the same date as you and they are telling me another 2-3 weeks... He did receive some stock models this week though.

What is the issue with the supplier? I thought the orders came straight from Apple?
 
Ok, my status is...
MBP 13" /16RAM/1TB/i7...
Ordered on 28th October. It moved faster this week over all the previous estates.
Just passed to the "NL DISTRIBUTION CENTER" with a tracking code that doesn't work in any company yet (8 numbers)
Estimated delivery date: Dec 13. (In Spain next week there are 2 holidays, I assume that it will take longer :eek:) - Before delivery dates 12th to 19th .

Maybe it's a TNT number, try to delete last two digits.

Finally the real traking code arrived. It's UPS, the MBP is in Milano, Italy, Don't know why. Scheduled time is not available yet.

#Edited
Scheduled appeared in the bottom (description of two packages) as 12/05/2016... I don't trust in that date.
Service used: UPS Express Saver®
 
Just unboxed mine....

Not sure what I think about it yet, keyboard is going to take some getting used too, comping from an 11'' air. Plus its massive compared to the laptop that I've been using for the past 3 years.....

Shiny though. Not sure what I think about the touch bar, kind of distracting watching it change as I'm typing but its something I'll probably get used to....

Now to go iMessage and try out its real selling point... The emoji bar!

Eindhoven location will be frozen now for next 3 days, on Monday evening you should see an update.

1. ~72 hours to reach from China to NL Hub.
2. ~48 hours from NL to UK.

I think you will get it on Wednesday. :)

Still can't work out my delivery, I ordered on the 13th with 3-4 weeks delivery but my estimated arrival date is 20th-29th December... that's not 3-4 weeks....
 
Oh that's tough. Don't you think that you can work more efficient on the new machine? ;)

Your delivery date is too far away to see any movement on DHL I think.
It is supposed to start tracking once it is in Amsterdam. That happens probably one to three days before your delivery date.
Mine appeared on DHL tracking today shipped but it's showing Eindhoven on the DHL Tracker and being delivered to the UK What's your best guess for delivery? Inside 5 days?

I think back on the 31st oct the delivery from Apple was 4-5 weeks 6-12dec delivery estimate but it's been shipped today. Appears on DHL tracking and shows Eindhoven as the first update

Mine still hasn't shown any movement on the Apple website in this kind of drop down tracking information since it changed to shipped on Monday! It's still scheduled for Monday
 
Estimated date was on 16 December.
Today my MacBook was prepared for shipping and now it is on the way to the Apple Store.
New estimated date is 07 December. Really cool that the date went down !
