Trying to wait patiently. So. Excited. Only about a week left until something should start happening!

totally understandable.... got my waterfield sleeve to unbox :cool: small things to shorten the waiting time... fedex only took 2 days from san francisco to germany... couldn't bare waiting so looong
 
No, they aren't. DHL are waiting for them to arrive from China to their hub in the Netherlands. Then the packages will be sent from there.

Exactly! I just talked with DHL and you're completely right.

Other couriers like TNT and UPS are carrying the MbP directly from China but DHL is waiting the MbP to arrive from China (by other internal courier) and then, they will carry the mbp the last part of the long way...for this reason the delivery dates of DHL are later (estimed by apple) than other (calculated directly by final courier).

Hope your orders progress soon. My 17th-24th BTO 15" machine has just shipped, with a delivery date of the 25th. It's a little odd that you're not seeing any movement with your orders yet.
My window is 18-25, one day later, which sort of gives me hope for tomorrow... but I hate the fact that CS knows nothing.

Mine 15" BTO has been shipped yesterday. I choose the in store pick up schedule for next Friday in Milan - Italy
 
How much was the shipping and did you have to pick it up at the customs?
I considered cheap shipping, but FedEx Priority does all the tax stuff for you (tho its 30$ instead of 10$ shipping) and its super fast. They delivered to my house :) was a bit worried at first cuz i never ever saw a fedex truck around here...


maybe mr. trump takes me off possible watchlists now, since i bought something "made in the usa" ;-)

What's the quality like with the waterfield? Thinking of ordering one as they look sweet!
 
What's strange is that on the bottom of my bill it says "shipped on 15 November 2016" but status of order only changed today...
Do you have the same?

Interestingly my shipping date is... tomorrow. Not sure what to make of that.
