Dude! You're getting the Corporate Polish!!
I'd like to keep checking my order tonight to see if it will miraculously prepare to ship early, but I've got to crash. So, I'll leave you with this tonight.
Thanks for sharing the video. This is more of my night tonight
if you don’t know this song or haven’t watched it you are missing out big time.Best 04:53 minutes of your life 🙃

Shortly after the charge my status updated to Preparing for Shipment.
I attempted to “upgrade” to Express Delivery last night and the rep said he was unable to.
Hopefully, we all just get UPS Express Worldwide on these shipments.
What happened today?
Hi, all!Ahhh, It is 12:13 AM in the morning in Las Vegas, Nevada. I'm off to bed soon. What a hectic day today. I have some good news and bad news... Let's start with the good news first. Tonight, someone reported our first "UPS Tracking Scan", It really gave me a little hope. Post: #2,464 . This is our first and only person who reported a UPS shipment label tonight.
As we all are anxiously waiting and checking the status of it. For most of us our status changed to "Preparing to Ship", this also ensures, Apple is very close to processing our order. They are running our order numbers and assigning the MacBook Pro. Many of you also reported shipment date being moved. Also, the folks that are expecting a delivery date in November also saw movement. So, this is all good news.
Now, the bad news... 99% of us are still waiting for the UPS scan to show up. It's taking its sweet time and I'm not sure what's happening. All I have is some faith and hope.
It's past midnight and it's a Friday today. I hope today is the day our shipment label shows up in UPS. Hopefully, UPS workers will get on board and start assigning the tracking numbers to us. As predicted before... we will be traveling together and sharing this journey over the weekend. So, expect a busy weekend. It would be really nice if we wake up with assigned tracking number's tomorrow.
I'm off to bed soon. Have a wonderful night and may the force be with us.
Special thanks to @eXoenDo for notifying this thread about his UPS shipment label. When you wake up in the morning, please check the status and let us know if you see anything updated.

So something finally appeared! I checked UPS by reference number one more time before going to bed, and I found this:
I have a 14" custom build. The reference number I used was my phone number with "1" at the beginning, as this is how it's listed in my account, +1XXXXXXXXXX. The order detail page also updated with this:

My 16” BTO is also appearing in MyChoice now. Coming from Shanghai with a 10/26 delivery date.
Nothing new here (to Germany). I just hope they don't fly their planes too high in the sky when they are getting them out of China...
Nice! Custom build? When did you receive your order confirmation?
Yes, custom build 14”. Order confirmation email on 10/18, 10:55 am Cupertino time.
Same exact minute! 14" BTO as well. Let's hope my order updates soon
just checked my choice and I see it now for Tuesday. Nice. Coming from china I think
Edit: yep, origin scan in Shanghai
@TheYayAreaLiving you went to sleep just a tad too early 💤

This tracking info showed up automatically in UPS My Choice. It still shows up as ‘Preparing to Ship’ on the Apple Order Status page.
It's always interesting to compare how all of this works in different parts in the world. I have a "credit card", but the amounts I spend get charged in their entirety at the end of the month. So it's more like a delayed debit card. Which is why I don't see the benefit of having one. In Europe, Maestro (debit version of Mastercard) is used everywhere and much easier to manage (getting cards, changing limits, ...).
When I tried to pay my 14" yesterday, it turned out my Mastercard's limit wasn't high enough. I called the bank this morning and they said it was €2500 and they could not raise it. So I told them to cancel the card because it just made no sense to pay for one if I can't use it properly. Fortunately, Apple actually accepts bank transfers in Europe, if you are a company. Since I'm self employed, they accepted my company details and set up a pro account for me. Just waiting for the financial department to approve everything and to send me the wiring details and I'll be back on track.
Well, you can use Klarna card or Barclay card if it's available in your country. It's my understanding that they are widely available in Europe and both allow splitting the amount into manageable monthly payments.
Shows up on UPS MyChoice. Departure scan from Shanghai. 10/26 delivery.
As far as I am aware, payment spreading on cards is not allowed at all in Belgium. It's why my Mastercard is also a delayed debit card.
I do have enough credit history my Apple Card was 2,500 and the other card I decide to put it on is 6,500, And Plus I also use my Apple Card for other things so I did not want to max it it .
I'm unemployed but I doing good- if I did not have the money then I would not ordered it
I’m Almost convinced the base models are stateside. My base 14 still hasn’t charged to my Apple Card yet and still has the pending tax charges.
Interestingly the tax is based on the amount post trade in as well.

I got the Apple Card like right when it came out, and when I apple I got the starting limit $2,500 and my I do pay my cards on time and I have no debt. I have a Captial One Credit Card and when I applied for that one they approved me for $6,500 and I have had the card for a long time
