MacBook Pro Late 2016 EU shipping

[craigfederighishair]

Looks like delivery to Europe now more organized then to US.

3/12 - Apple Status: PFS.
3/12 - Apple Status: Moved to Shipped by EOD.
4/12 - Picked up and delivered to Airport by DHL in China. - Apple Status: In Transit to Customer- Shipment on Schedule
5/12 - Left China with China Cargo (CK205) - CK205 Cargo leaving China every day at 9:30am and getting to Amsterdam around 16:00. - Apple Status: Shipment dispatched.

Another interesting issue. If you getting into the weekend and your DHL tracking number is not working (showing error) wait till Monday, it will start working by midday.

FYI @craigfederighishair maybe this info can me useful for your guide. thanks btw.

Something that can also be added to guide, from my experience:
1. Factory working 24/7.
2. Factory logistic working 24/7.
3. DHL and Customs in China working 24/7.

So there are no delays for dispatch from China.

Hey together,

Just wanted to share my MBP BTO story.. everything went fine until today. The status says translated "Shipment damaged - please contact Apple btw this was an Apple Business ordered BTO MBP. As far as i read i was in a good timestep regarding the processing of the order.. Just hope its something wrong in the system or whatever and i do not have to wait 4-5 weeks again..

That's bad news. My ordering and shipment date are nearly the same as yours. I have no movement on dhl website since last Wednesday. And nothing on apple website since Friday. It seems that we are more than one in this situation. Where was your mbp when you had the last tracking information ? When was it ?

 

[manuchis]

Just arrived! is a beauty!

My status just changed to "Preparing the transfer to the final carrier". I hope now I'll get the tracking number.

Estimated delivery December 7. Spain.

For all of those who live in Spain and their order is going to be sent to Spain, the o my day that UPS will be on "holidays" will be the 8th, I think this applies to other delivery companies too.

I think you missed some words or letters, I don't really understand what you said .

haven't received any tracking number yet. it went from dispatched, to shippend, then appointment requested and then since last 4 days in the status shipped until now.. oh just refreshed the website out of curiosity and it says now in transit to the customer shipment in timeplan WTF?!?! Apple plays with my emotions.. time to rethink myself about loving too much Apple products where do you guys have your tracking number from ?

Best regards

A few minutes ago I had the same status as yours (in transit to the costumer, shipment in plan), and still no tracking number. Now my status just changed (check my post above) and still no tracking number.

I had the exact same thing a few weeks ago. I called up Apple support which didn't appear to know what was going on, at which point they were 'going to open an investigation'. The good news for me was that this status kind of resolved itself afterwards and just went back to a normal status. In the end, my shipment was on time.

So this means that the date we place an order with the reseller doesn't mean very much, if the distributor sits on that order for a while before bundling it up with other orders. I received an odd email from my reseller two weeks after I placed my order indicating a 4-6 week lead time. They denied that the order had been delayed but I'm getting the impression that it was very much delayed. Probably it took tow weeks before the distributor placed their order with Apple. I won't use a reseller again - they are two steps removed from Apple.

Basically, we're screwed. I've heard rumors for mid January deliveries.

 

[cramr]

I'm so tired of seeing my order in Processing Items, come on... 17 days till December 21st, any possibility there'll be movements this week?

My window opens at Dec 14th and still no movement today...

 

[Ice.Blue]

Just got a call by TNT. Delivery will be today instead of tomorrow

Ordered my first own Mac last Friday:

• 13" nTB Silver
• i5 2.0Ghz
• 16GB RAM
• 512GB SSD
• 1x Apple USB-C to A
• 1x Charger Extension Cable

For 2083,83 €. Estimated delivery December 9th - 13th.
I really hope it gets delivered this week.

Did someone order a customized nTB model recently? How long did the processing take?

 

[someuser99]

Has anyone recieved a 13" touch bar, i7, 16gb ram, 512gb ssd yet? Ordered one 28th November via Macforum in Sweden, still no news :/

Edit: Reseller Dustin in Sweden has changed date on almost all Macbook Pros to 2017-01-31 (earlier 2016-12-20)

I ordered the exact same BTO model on Nov 1st via a reseller in Ireland. Still no update.....As noted above there seems to be a big issue with getting orders from Resellers who operate via distributors

I ordered my 15" (2.7, 512GB, 460) on the 31st of October from a premium reseller in Germany. The projected delivery date back then was 3-4 weeks, but now the 5th week has begun.

After calling them, they said it's the most popular mac (and configuration) yet and the only option is waiting. Unfortunately they don't have any info from their wholesaler on when the machine's gonna arrive.

 

[SwissGuy93]

My Macbook is now out for delivery let's hope everything goes well and that my neighbor is there to receive it

We all need to learn never to order from resellers in future

 

[Ice.Blue]

Delivered! But I will get it only tomorrow because it was delivered to a friend of mine.

I'm in your same case. No movements since Friday (Shipment dispatched)

My status just changed to "Preparing the transfer to the final carrier". I hope now I'll get the tracking number.

Estimated delivery December 7. Spain.

Your "Shipped" date? When change to "Shipment dispatched"?

 

[sebastiannitu]

I've ordered mine from an Apple Authorised Reseller on the 4th of November (13 inch 16gig ram touch bar) and I only got a "Proposal Number" from them. Since I do not have a tracking number, is there any way to get one?

 

[RIGHT]

Just came back from call with Apple. My baby is on it's way to Czech.... So a bit different than normal from Amsterdam... After Czech it will be dispatched finally to me.
Never ever again I will order merged one
