For all those people stuck in ZhengZhou with me, don't expect it this week. According to UPS, it's in customs awaiting release, will be 2 days from then. Monday would be earliest to see it. Very disappointing, Apple needs to be better at this...
Mine has been there since last Friday. This is more than ridiculous.

Like airlines losing bags? They usually just put them on the next flight.

You would think.. but that doesn't square with the timeline that was posted.. I honestly don't know why it would have gone back to RKSI, but if the posted scans are correct and in order, then that's what happened: the pallet his Mac was on went back to RKSI.

BL.

Hopefully it doesn’t take that long. Monday is still too far away. I don’t think they are going to hold the packages that long.
 
It just arrived!! 🎉 seeing the Space Grey in person I’ve got to say it looks really nice and I’m really happy with it! 🤤

Wow, thanks for all that. That search tool is super handy. How long is the normal processing time when things are running smoothly? It seems like it must be at least an hour or two.
I wouldn't think it would take very long? I searched through this thread quickly to see if anyone uploaded a screenshot of their orders arriving, but couldn't find anything. Was going to use their timeframe to extract US Custom Clearance rate haha

I did find something! I knew I saw a post earlier where someone posted their Kentucky clearance time, it was in another subforum:

Okay so based on this other post. It seems like, somehow they cleared customs on their order mid-air somehow? Just did an import scan.

Looks like, based on their time frame. It's not going to come today LOL
 
You’ll have to post pictures after a few months so that I can see how beautifully that blue patinas with time. 😍 I love the way good leather ages.
Will do. I'm pretty sure it's going to look good on my Mac. Right now, my Mac has started to collect dust. so It's definitely going to come in very handy.
 
@LasersGoPewPew how are you making out with the 14 and the 16”? Are you leaning towards one more than the other? Inquiring minds would like to know. 😁
I have a feeling she may settle down with a 14" MacBook since it's more compact and portable for her needs. Both machines are amazing though.

Woo Hoo! Congratulations! It's a big day for you. We know you are going to be busy today. Hope you enjoy your MacBook! You are going to love the screen and the battery life.
 
Picked up my silver 14” M1P earlier today, going to go back tomorrow to return my SG model. The contrast between the silver and black keyboard is just too clean

I agree! The contrast between the black keyboard and the screen is way too clean! Also, the MagSafe matches with the silver color too!!! Congratulations! Hope you enjoy your Mac :)
 
So did you opt for the signed "Woz" edition?
LOL!!! I think not! 🤣 The only lettering that I want on my sleeve is my own. I really like that, other than the “Woz”, the engraving is laser etched and very subtle.

I have/had one for my M1 MBA so of course I need one for the 16”. There’s just something about the Classic Plus that is exquisite to me—maybe it’s the tucked seams or the smoothness of the leather…👌.

Would you mind taking a picture of a side-by-side with the Space Gray and the silver? I'd love to see that contrast with the Mac open.

BL.
