Update: still nothing. My 18-25 window is approaching and I'm still processing... Should I call them? They're probably gonna tell me to chill.

Same here. Hopefully it'll update this week. They might already be shipped just not yet having changed the status.

Does anyone know if the facility in China works on the weekend? As in, would it update on Saturday/Sunday if it hasn't yet?

The factories for sure but you also need the whole logistics & customs chain to operate on weekends and although it's China, I'm not sure about that.
 
I think for anyone still hoping it'll come this week, it's best to accept the fact it's 99% not going to, and treat it as a nice bonus if it does.

Obviously I have to take my own advice which is hard but i think it's the reality.

I spoke to the CS and the guy was kinda like... you'll get an email Thursday, Friday at the latest... (pause)... if not, next week for sure. I'm like ????

Tbh, I am not trying to be a winge pot, but the fact that the yanks have their machines shipped already and have them available at local stores as well is appalling. Apple really needs to stop pissing about.
Lol they don't deserve nice things anyway. They elected a Cheeto as President.

Haha it is bad for us. That bell end has got access to nuclear stuff. LOL

No I fully agree with you, I just think we should be pessimistic about shipping so we can then only be happily surprised now if it arrives soon!
 
I honestly think the execs over at Cupertino just don't know this is going on. They don't care - they have their Jet Black iPhones, AirPods and Touch Bar MacBooks weeks and months ago. They don't care that first-come-first-served doesn't really happen anymore.

All they see is on paper everything that's being manufactured is being sold. "Job's a good'un - what's for lunch!"

EDIT: Hyperlinked the slang for the non-English among us! :p

Feels like they ship with container ships from china, but they use airplanes luckily :) And first notification of shipping is usually when it arrive at european airport
 
How do I know if it hasn't been added? My date was never pushed back, and it's processing, so I assume that they received the payment?
No worries, before processing it had another state, that they where waiting for the money, which took 4-5 days, after that went it to processing.
 
I mean it must be some shipment of the bigger sort. I think the real delivery starts from cologne or other main bases.
So I think first of all I gets from China to, say, cologne and then you will get a notification when your product got track label and was dispatched by Apple here. They would never send it parcel by parcel in the whole world, makes no sense.
 
I ordered mine for pick up in my local Apple Store (Frankfurt, Germany) and the Status now says "Preparing your shipment", maybe I can get it earlier than the original date (11/22/2016).
 
Man at this rate, with constant negatives about the MacBook Pro , like fake speaker grills, soldered SSD etc etc ... and the delays.... it's going to arrive at some point and be returned to apple......

Last time I order online....total waste of time. I'll be able to buy one retail tomorrow . Pre-order at apple is turning into sucker....

I'm going back to retail in the future. Though this time round probably 2nd hand 2015 model. For £3k this machine is loosing its appeal with each story I read ....on an apple fan site
 
Hmm, interesting. When I bought my iMac 5K, I wanted a high-end config and was told by the Glasgow store that BTO models were only available online. Oh well, maybe it varies by store or product line (or who you ask...)

Good to hear from you by the way @Brookzy - I hope the :apple: Pencil I sold you is still going strong. :)

Was in the Braehead store this evening with my nephew having a genius looking at his  Watch. Just having a chat with him and he mentioned that the rumour is that some TB models may be arriving next week into the store for purchase.

He did stress that this is just 'chat around the water fountain' but good info just incase.

Fake speaker grills? What on earth?

I wasn't much fussed about the fake grilles until I just read that on the non-Touch Bar model they're not fake and apparently sound better. Another pundit rates the 12" MacBook speakers as better than any of the Pros'. The mind boggles.
