Any news from your side ? My delivery date is ssupposed to be today but it seems to still be in belgium (as of the 24/12).

My estimated delivery date is tomorrow and it says "on time".
It's still in cologne, but I think it will proceed tonight as the holiday is over.
So I think you'll most likely will receive yours tomorrow as well. ;-)

I'm feeling like my personal Christmas Eve is tomorrow when the UPS-guy is coming to town

My MBP is still in Amsterdam and not event processed yet (nothing happened since the 23rd). :( My estimated delivery date is Dec 28, but I was hoping for a tomorrow. Now I am hoping it won't be delayed due to the christmas holidays.

Haha i feel the same! It's my own Christmas/birthday/whatever excuse gift !
Apple just updated my order status with DELAYED :( Hoping to get it tomorrow (I think TNT does not work today).
 
Hello all,

I hope that all of you who are waiting for their MacBook will receive them
After 3 days with it on my hands, i can say that it worth the wait, and doesn't deserve at all the bad critics it received (i didn't say it is perfect)

If you install boot camp,don't forget to plug a headset jack until the LAST Apple driver have been installed. It would be dreadful to blast such brilliant speakers

To ocgirl : pray for not being delivered by TNT, so far they are the WORST express carrier ...they didn't deliver me some parcels because of ... being too busy (one week ago) and another time : they called my phone, I didn't answer because i was on line, and then they didn't deliver me, arguing that I was not at home ...
I complained to amazon asking them not to deliver me by this carrier at any time (two times they refund me 5 €)

Mine has not updated since Friday and I am checking the DHL flight info, my tracking number and the apple page. I am worried it will be delayed as well.

I prayed to not have TNT but UPS but I got stuck with TNT which is a shame ... I have been in a place without signal for 5 days so I'm already dreading the delivery (which was supposed to be today). I might throw a fit if I don't receive it tomorrow but I'm highly skeptical at that point.
On the other hand, I'm really glad you are enjoying your machine ! :) any issues with scratching/battery life/graphic glitches?

Have you checked your apple status in the app/online ? Mine clearly shows up as delayed (updated today) . I know in some countries today is holidays still so it might be holding up the carriers ?
 
The waiting game is over for me. TNT delivered my maxed out 15" this morning, two days earlier than the estimated date. On my way home to set it up!
[doublepost=1482763815][/doublepost]It's flawless. What a beautiful machine!
 
@ocgirl
Like whoiss I would say that it is flawless. I hand't see any issue, scratch, glitches.
I don't use the tbMBP with a chronometer but I can say that the battery life looks like the same as my former 15 MBPr (when it was brand new) . I hours web browsing --> minus 5% battery life

I'm just not fond of : the noise of the keyboard and the trackpad (but it's less and less noticeable...) the sharp angles of the casing.
That said It is perfect !

It still says 'In transit to customer – shipment on schedule', but nothing happened on the DHL pages. Looks like the 26th is a national holiday in NL, so I guess nothings is happening in customs. My estimated time of arrival is the 28th so I have no tight to complain but I was hopeful that it'll arrive tomorrow. :p
 
Finally got my 15" MacBook! :D Delivered on Friday to the store, picked it up today and man it's beautiful I love it!! But the battery life...oh good lord. 2 hours of Spotify and Chill :( My thinking it's the first day and it's probably doing a whole bunch of things in the background so that's probably why it's so crappy. But even with 2 hours battery life I'd keep it xD

After using mine for a week I'm getting 8-9 hours when only using Safari, Airmail and Microsoft Word with Tweetbot running as well. At first my battery life was 3-4 hours. Pretty pleased now.

start from scratch, with just data downloaded from iCloud.
excellent battery life for me. I can't notice differences vs my former MBPr
 
It. Is. Beautiful.

Apple was mean enough to send me the shipping confirmation on dec 24th, so all I got to see for the last 2 days was "Shipment information received". Hope it will get updated today.

Hi, I've been following this thread for a while without saying anything but I'm in exactly the same spot (delivery to Poland via the Netherlands), info sent by Apple on 24 Dec, DHL shows 'Shipment information received' at 23 Dec 15:53. Being impatient as I am, I called Apple today to ask about any updates on their end, and they checked the freight tracking number – it looks like (presumably) our MacBooks got to NL from Shanghai last night and they are being processed now, on their way to the DHL hub (if we're in the same boat and yours is also shipped via DHL Express). Hopefully in a couple of days from now…

I got my first mail on Dec 23rd too, but DHL Express shows it as Dec 24th. Might be thst we're on the same shipment then, mine goes to Germany. Estimated delivery is December 30th (and im not home that day...).
 
It was actually the opposite for me – a 'sent' e-mail from Apple on Saturday the 23rd, then the tracking number appeared after a couple of hours, while the DHL tracking site has been showing '23 Dec' from the very beginning (that is: since I was able to access it on the 24th via the reference provided only then), which might be due to various ways in which they process shipments from China.
My estimated delivery is 3 January, but the helpline rep told me I can expect it earlier, with the package already in or going to the Dutch hub. He also said they can redirect the package when necessary but they'd prefer to know a few days in advance so that they can notify the courrier service. Perhaps you can either redirect it to another address or delay delivery the same way.

Poland here too, waiting for my replacement. You can basically estimate that if it'll go through customs today, it'll arrive tommorow.
