Attention!!! Incoming UPS Scan!!!​

It is currently 07:48AM Saturday morning in the Mainland China right now, October 23rd, 2021.

If you have not received your UPS SCAN LABEL. Don't worry. I'm hoping UPS will be scanning and assigning the labels to our order within the next 5-8 hours. It's a possibility they might be working later today. So, please stay on the look out and report any incoming scans. I hope people that are promised a October 26th delivery date will be getting their tracking numbers later on tonight U.S. times. Let's go!!!

Those of you with a assigned shipping label already and waiting to get a departure scan, please report any activity, ASAP! I have a feeling 2nd part of the crew will be joining you. Hopefully you don't leave China behind before we get our shipping labels.

Sending out good wishes and hope. We don't have much time left and the weekend is around the corner. I've said this many times already we shall all be traveling together this weekend. It's going to be a busy one!!!

-TheYayAreaLiving.

What SSD size? I ordered BTO 14" M1 Max/32 GPU/64 RAM 1 TB SSD around 5 minutes after you haha. Estimated delivery to East Coast shows as Nov 3 as well but haven't had any movement towards "Preparing to Ship" yet..

I pre-order iPhones every year but I haven't been this rabidly excited about a new Apple Product maybe ever?

Same config, 1 TB SSD.

Has anyone that had a delivery date in mid/late November or early December gotten their dates changed to something sooner? This 4-5 week wait for me is brutal o_O

Tried to contact Apple about changing to Express/Next Day. They’re giving me the run around, saying because I paid in “monthly installments” - they can’t apply a shipping charge to upgrade it.

The first person said no, they have no option I’d have to cancel and reorder. 🤷🏼‍♀️

mine is tied to monthly installments, i didn't even have a choice for standard delivery, It automatically gave me express, i think apple doesn't have a clue, haha.

There doesnt seem to be many Australian pre-orderers in here..
I’ve been at prepare to ship for 18 or so hrs now but still no update on delivery, still at 3-8th Nov.
Never pre-ordered anything from the Apple store with delivery, I normally just do in-store p/u, so this process is new to me.
I am wondering what happens with shipping now? It seems US buyers are getting USPS updates but there order isn’t moving to ”Shipped” yet? Do Australians just get an AusPost/Toll/DHL update once it lands in AU?
I’m hoping to get it next week now, as it has move to PTS ?

I think you’re right, I wonder if there is a different thread for australian orders.

Anyway, you’re way better since you’re at PTS. My estimated delivery is still Null and processing. It’s the third day since it became null. I ordered after the keynote and the email says 28th-Oct.

I’m starting to feel like there’s something wrong with my order and I’m not getting it soon. Will be calling them today. ??

Still shows pending charge for my base 14 8/16gb/512 storage. I’m still convinced the default units are shipping direct from the states.

👆 theory will be proven right on Sunday. Right now, it’s still too early. Many people have reported their new scan from China. Many stock models are also coming from China. Apple / UPS has time. Hopefully tonight we get our shipment labels!

To people posting UPS screenshots, can you please post your location with the estimated arrival?

I'm in southern California, ordered 10:55am Cupertino time on launch. I found my label by reference but it's not showing up on mychoice. Still Oct 26 shipping.

Like @TheYayAreaLiving mentioned on her call with the Apple manager, the shipments should cross the pacific so it makes sense that orders for eastern US are the first ones to go out

By 7PM Tuesday October 26th, to Colorado. WW Express Saver. Ordered one minute after yours.

I suspect that Apple systems update in batch, my order hasn't updated in the store app, but this is from mychoice in UPS...and even better, this isn't just a label, it's on the box and on the way!

I'm eastern US (DC) and mine is showing in Shanghai on MyChoice. My estimated arrival has always been 10/26 and I ordered at 10:56 AM Cupertino time. I wouldn't worry. Apple has generated the label but it may not show up until UPS actually accepts it into their system. I'm sure it will show sometime in the next 24 hours or so.

24 hours is stretching it too far out. Expect to show up within 12 hours or so hopefully next 5-8 hours.

Tuesday delivery! Going to pick it up at the UPS store. Can’t wait. Honestly. I’ve upgraded all my devices to pro-motion. Once you try it, you can’t go back. It’s so nice. Going to be awesome on the MacBook.

Pro-motion is such a nice feature. Can you imagine how smooth scrolling through web browser is going to be. I’m so glad Apple decided to add it even though there was no rumors about it.

Still no movement out of processing for a base high-end 16”. Anyone in the same boat? Mine still says October 26, but…nothing else.

Thanks for your input everyone on the keyboard and trackpad protector. I also do it to retain the value if I sell in the future…as I just did my M1 Air. I guess it will help me not trade this in and keep it long term…which I should do because I shouldn’t keep spending this money!

I’ve had my MBP for 5 years and it looks brand new. Are you rough on your computer?
