To provide a data point, my base 16" Max order updated to PFS very early in the morning yesterday. Email confirmation of the order is at 1PM CST with a delivery date of 10/26. My Apple Card still has the charge as pending and no UPS updates.

Curious if when the charge does finalize, will it trigger the 6% back that other Apple Card users have been seeing? Currently the pending transaction just says 3% back.

You can try contacting Apple? Get a confirmation about that. Wonder if that’s going to make a difference.
 
Thanks you for the info! Decoded!

This is where it's coming from Tech-Com (Shanghai) Computer Co., Ltd Manufacture. Read more information below :)

Tech-Com (Shanghai) Computer Co., Ltd. manufactures and markets computers and computer peripherals. The company is based in Shanghai, China. Tech-Com (Shanghai) Computer Co., Ltd. operates as a subsidiary of Quanta Development Ltd.

Quanta is, and has been for many years, one of Apple's main producers. Your Mac is coming directly from an Apple manufacturing facility and cutting out a trip to an Apple "holding" plant, thereby getting it to you faster. One of my earlier MBPs came directly from Quanta, the same situation.


Company Information. I was able to find exactly where your Mac is coming from. Check out the address and the phone number 😈

Saw a post on /r/apple that the 6% was a mistake and will change to 3% when the charge finishes posting.

Jealous of the cb rates you can get in the US... 1.5% here in Canada, I didn't think to look for something to churn before making the purchase.

Thank you! Lol you really want me to reveal that to you. Haha! The code is embedded. LTD-CA. This alone leads you to Tech-Com manufacturing company. SHA, CH, means it’s coming from Shanghai, China. All about connecting the dots. Hope this is helpful ;)

good to learn something new!

it will be helpful for then I buy the new MacBook in about 7 years after this one! :D

we don't get the "fun" of tracking phone launches in the UK as they all only track from a local hub within the UK a day or so before launch.

hoping its not a wait until after the weekend for the uk BTO shipments to move from PFS

No problem! I swear I thought during Apple Watch Series 7 pre-order someone was able to track the order and this person also lived in UK. I remember sharing it with you.
 
If any of you want to experience the 1st unboxing of these new laptops, here is a video from Reddit -
It's all happening!!!

Edit:

This will be me on Tuesday...and playing with the MagSafe connector...
@LFC2020 You should probably order it now that this person in the video has unboxed theirs and felt it. "It feels different". They probably aren't used to the feeling of the POWER this machine has.

Anytime I see video of people unboxing apple products I just wait for them to drop it at some point like that iPhone video from years ago
 
love the way the all black keyboard looks in that photo!

surprised there haven't been more UPS scans... am still waiting for mine due Tuesday 26th. not worried about a delay though, just thought there would be some action by now.
