Memphis is FedEx's main distribution center. This is why it is going there.

Not yet, I'm going to wait for the next scan at this point to see where it might go. It is just in transit from the FedEx origin facility.
Thank you! keep me posted, please. It also looks like there are two big FedEx flights taking pallets after pallets of MacBook Pros to Memphis.
 
Mine has shipped via star track as well, eta tomorrow! Can’t wait!! My polishing cloth also shipped via star track too.
Are you from sydney too? I just got the shipping details, and it’s with StarTrack too.

And ETA is tomorrow! from 28-Oct. what a surprise.

???????‍?
 
BTO 14 24 core M1Max 32 gigs of ram and 512 gigs SSD with a delivery date of November 3-5 just showed up on UPS MyChoice and with an updated delivery date for the 1st. Latest status reads, “The package is at the clearing agency awaiting final release”. Still hoping it will come earlier than that! :) It shouldn’t take too long to clear customs and fly out to the states, right!? There is still hope? Haha0_o
 
Sigh, might follow this plan.
@LFC2020 Keep your order and check the store inventory. Stop worrying about EDU discounts. Apple will honor it, dude. If they don't let me know, ASAP. I'll make the phone call to the Apple Store and personally speak to the store manager on your behalf. Is it this store?

You are just going to have to pay for the long-distance call, though LOL.

I’m on the Gold Coast, Queensland. StarTrack is usually overnight express like TNT however the Hermes watch band I ordered was delayed with them ?‍♀️ I really hope my MacBook won’t be delayed. There are going to be 2 delivered to work tomorrow, mine and my bosses.
 
Unless I'm crazy this didn't show up before under commodity info... has my web order number there.

I can confirm this is my BTO and not my standard config (has no shipping info update)

If you ordered a new Mac and getting it this upcoming week or the following week. Consider yourself lucky. I would not be surprised if these get pushed to January 2022.

MacBook Pro preorders slip to late November, December ahead of the release​

 

In order, you have:

  • McDonnell-Douglas MD-11 (which is a refit of the DC-10)
  • Boeing B757-200
  • another MD-11
  • Atlas Air (Giant) B747-400). Atlas Air is contracted by Amazon.
  • National Airlines (Cargo) B747-400. They handle a lot of military contracts.
  • Airbus A300-600. UPS is one of the last airlines to fly that aircraft type, along with the MD11.
  • Kalitta B747-400s. More known internationally for cargo, but not as much as FDX, UPS, DHL, etc.
  • UPS MD11 in front of a UPS Airbus 300-600.
  • UPS MD11 lined up and waiting for takeoff. If you look closely at the fuselage, you can see that this was a converted DC10 and refitted. The frames of the windows are still there. Additionally, the MD11s have winglets, where as the MD10 and DC10 series didn't.

Nah, I'm not a pilot, aviation enthusiast, or aged out of becoming an air traffic controller waiting for my call to go into training. ;)

BL.

So, basically, are you trying to tell me that standard configs, even though they have a delivery date of 10/26, won't ship until late Nov or early December?

All the standard configs here are pushed to late Nov already, if you buy them now and not if you ordered already. There will be stock in-store though so it is not completely sold out yet.

That's okay for me. What I am more concerned about is if I order it, could I have my card charged before the end of the year. Three words: Tax. Write. Off. 😁

I see. When I ordered my hermes watch too, TNT was delayed. This is going to be my second time to opt in for delivery, as I always prefer to click and collect, and was happy that it’s startrck this time since I’ve never had bad experience with them so far.
