I placed the order on event day, delivery window Nov 17 - Nov 24. It is a BTO just because I'm in Spain and I wanted US layout. My order is still processing.

I was just one click away to pick up one today with Spanish layout but I know I would regret that the following years ?

Is there somebody with similar delivery dates on status "preparing to ship" already? I am still hopeful to get it before estimated date.

I have a standard config ordered to arrive around the same time and I also ordered within minutes of the store updating after the event. Mine still says processing, which is BS. That’s why I’m hoping to pick one up today if I’m lucky.

I'm also Spanish. I ordered last Thursday a mid tier 16 inch MBP but with upgraded RAM to 32 GB. My estimated delivery date is 26 Nov to 3 Dec, so definitively I have to wait for a while ?. Hopefully it arrives earlier. Of course is still processing.

This is the only thing giving me hope... my Apple Watch delivery from the other week.

From the same Shanghai scan: it was delivered 2 days later.

Oh wow, thank you for this. This would be tremendous. This certainly helps my confidence. We just need to get on a flight out of Shanghai soon!

The only thing that still makes me nervous seeing this is knowing that things can get held up on my side between Louisville & Charlotte. Usually if things go fairly smooth, I've also had stuff get held up from Charlotte to my local UPS facility. I still have hope for delivery by Friday, but its dwindled a bit.

Significant rain and wind coming my way today.. pretty sure it'll still be delivered today :) Not supposed to hit until the afternoon and UPS guy usually is at my place around noon.

Is there anyone who's been doing some flight tracking out of china noted whether UPS is still contracting with cargo flight companies like Kalitta Air or National Cargo?

I know that this has been done in the past for larger launches. Just trying to gauge if my MBP could end up on one of the flights leaving Shanghai within the hour, destined for Anchorage. I'm really hoping here.

This is the worst. Legit trying to secure a M1 Max for pickup today, just as a backup - extra $500 for peace of mind

Is there an Apple store near you? I would try to make a pickup order there and get the discount today in the store. There seems to be a lot of stock, only the 16" 32 core GPU is not available in my case.

Depends on your area. I was surprised to see there were none available in Boston. Or they all got sold to MIT kids at six in the morning

EDIT They showed up at 8 AM. It looks like all stock configurations were available

that cord, is a "power extension cable", those haven't been included for many years now, so they aren't cutting anything. I bought my first macbook in 2015 and i remember having to buy the extension cord, but those are interchangeable so if you have one already no need to buy a new one. Of course the new mac comes with your power brick and usbc to magsafe cable.

Does anyone know, whether it is possible to use power extension cable from 2011 MacBook Pro? Or is there any problem with wattage or something else?

I can only assume in our case they're waiting on enough stock to warrant the flight. But this sucks.
