Sweet baby Jesus, I am finally P4S :D:D:D

Same here! I'm not sure when the change happened (can you find out?) but it was somewhere between yesterday afternoon and now. Now, how long until it ships...?

Based in London. 15"/2.9/460/1tb/Space Grey. Ordered 12/11. Estimated delivery 20-29/12.
 
Mine just departed Heathrow sort facility. Why is it departing London when it's to be delivered to a London address?

It happened overnight for me. When I went to bed at midnight it was still processing. Woke up at 4am, grabbed my phone cause I'm obsessed, and checked that it was P4S and I was so happy I couldn't go back to sleep.. I'm based in Watford. Estimated to arrive Dec 21 - Jan 3, but I have express shipping, so I'm assuming it'll be here soon rather than later.

Based on the trend, we should see shipping happen late in the evening or during the night.
 
What does "Appointment request" mean?

Seems the delay is due to the 460 chips... at the moment, you can order directly from apple with a deliverywindow from 2-3 weeks.

In the UK the dispatch time has gone down to 1-2 weeks, I'm really hoping that means they are clearing the backlog faster than they thought?

Checked today and i'm still processing, but as I ordered on 27th November (2.9, 460, 512gb (15 inch)) I doubt I'll get P4S anytime soon.

I must have ordered at the worst time, when I ordered it was 4-5 weeks and it's just gone down most weeks from then..

Hang on, just had another look to check that - turns out every configuration APART FROM the 460 is 1-2 weeks, the 460 is 2-3 weeks, so it is the 460 that is the delay

Which you already said, my bad
 
Still, just another weekend left!! Am sure all of us who are in PFS will have it early next week.

What's everyone up to in the mean-time? I've got the 25th Anniversary SEGA mega drive hopefully coming by tomorrow. That should help fill the void! :)

Gonna have a good weekend prior to the arrival of the MacBook Pro. Going to see Star Wars on Sunday - rest of the weekend hanging out with my girlfriend, playing some Xbox and kill some time til the thing arrives. I end my current job on Wednesday and begin a new one in the new year, so I've got a lot of free time on my hands to set up my new MacBook Pro in prep for my new job! :D

Something's happening! My status at Apple.com just changed from "In transit" (= on a plane to the Netherlands) to "Preparing handover to final carrier". That means that the DHL tracking site should be updated any minute now! :D
 
My Tracking number has updated and now it's working, but I don't know what this means... Is my shipment on Amsterdam or no?

Ah man I'm jealous, hope you get it soon!

Thanks! I'm still a bit afraid of that it won't arrive before Christmas, since all kinds of mailing and shipping services here in Finland are notoriously known for being excruciatingly slow.

I'd say it most likely is in Amsterdam, but since DHL doesn't quite yet have it, you can't see it on DHL's website. Mine is exactly the same. What does it say on Apple's website when you go to your orders?

Same for me.

Nice one! I have a few days off around Christmas, so will be good to finally get some video editing down on the new Mac! Current 12" MacBook just isn't up to the task! lol

It says "Shipment Dispatched"

Mine has been in the same state as yours since yesterday. I think it means DHL have been notified that a parcel is coming to Europe. I don't think they're here yet, or if they are they haven't cleared customs. Hopefully there'll be some movement in the next 24 hours.

I hope so too! I think it must have left Shanghai already, at least it should have done so...

Currently there's flight number CZ451 that left Shanghai 12/16/2016 at 01:04AM and in 1 hour 29 minutes it will land in Amsterdam. Maybe our MBP are there! And yes, it's a Boeing 777-F1B, meaning that it's a Cargo plane.

I'm just chatting to apple now to see if I can get the house bill number.
