Mine is still stuck in Memphis with a clearance delay even though Apple assured me that was normal/nothing to worry about, and I would get it today. Delivery date is pending.

If I didn’t pay with a gift card I would just go pick one up at the store.
 
Hi @diruocoo

Welcome to Apple/UPS purgatory!!! There are quite a few us in the same situation. My 16" Max with 24 core GPU, 32GB Ram, and 1 TB SSD that was ordered on 10/25 has been stuck on the same UPS message since Friday 11/19. No one at Apple or at UPS can tell me anything about the shipment (they just blame each other). According to Apple, I am supposed to have my Mac delivered to me in Oregon by 12/1. There is a sub-Reddit with a bunch of the same from others who are having their machines shipped with UPS. Seems like Apple created the labels, with tracking, and those machines have been sitting in some warehouse waiting for UPS to pick them up. Not sure why Apple would send shipping details to customers and then let them sit? I would have been more understanding if my order was "preparing to ship" and not "shipped" but not really shipped.
same thing. really not worried. for sure they are cranking as hard as they can on pre-built tracking numbers which will just take some time to sync
 
It finally shipped and is arriving early too.

PREPARING TO SHIP!! I turned on my iphone this morning and saw a message from the apple store saying they took out the money from my apple card account(Also says its pending and will get the 3 percent cash back, not sure if Im supposed to do that now or wait til the actual charge appears on my account)
So excited..I did NOT chat with apple yesterday so decided to wait til today to see what would happen and here we are..ya all dont think(I know Im super paranoid) that because I was chatting with apple like once a week asking about my order that they wont send me a new one right LOL ..I guess it will ship from China that is what I should be on the lookout for?
Great news! It would arrive next week! Did they show also the estimated delivery date for your order?

On the order originally it always said between Nov 24th through dec 2nd..so I figure for everyone they start "Preparing for shipment" 2 days AFTER the original arrival date..I just hope that there were no issues cause I kept on chatting with them, the last time was on wednesday because I was worried about my order..but they are just chat agents and I was always nice, just concerned..I assume the new order will ship from China? if it ships from the US Id be worried that its a refurb or something..
Since I used the apple card it shows the pending amount plus the 3 percent cash back..should I apply that when the amount actually goes onto the card? never done it before
 
OK mine just shipped no tracking yet but it says its coming

Carrier Name:​


DI OVERNITE, LLC

Its called deliver-it.com never heard them I Figured it would be coming from China but I Guess its not..so of course I worry about getting a refurb or something like that

You’re not getting a refurbished unit. They are probably spreading the shipment load since there are so many dang orders. There are dozens of thousands of different freight companies out there. It’ll be fine, hang tight
 
my 14in m1 max 32gb arrived earlier today

I love it

It’s amazing how much faster the graphics are even compared to the M1 pro which is already very fast.
For example. In the Dirt Rally benchmark at ultra setting 2560x1600 the m1 pro averaged 86fps (compared to the rtx 3070 laptop which got 81fps)
The M1 max just averaged 121fps at the same resolution and settings!
Can’t wait till more stuff takes advantage of the gpu, although even running through translation layers it has power to spare

Yeah I called apple and he well he didnt have anything good to say about deliver-it but said that it would be packaged by apple at the apple warehouse somewhere in CA not sure where that deliver-it does NOT package it themselves..and that it requires a signature, but he made a request that I can e sign for it online since we dont open the door(Due to covid my mom is 72 she is not comfortable opening the door to anyone) so I can do that if I knew that it was coming on a particular day dont want them leaving it outside, it gets stolen and its on me so wont be signing anything online unless I know for sure that it will be coming at that time

If it makes you feel any better, deliver-it delivered my iPad Mini Smart Cover today without problems. Just dropped it off at my front door, no hassle.

Great yeah that is what I will do..I called deliver-it because I had called apple earlier asking them if they can send me an e-sign thing to do online that way I can just sign for it online I Called deliver it and they have no record of that..but then I was thinking perhaps that is a bad idea because lets say they drop it off and someone steals it then its on ME its my problem because I signed for it that way and deliver it said they dont even do that anyway either sign for it or forget it..so what I think I will do WHEN it arrives is I will tell the delivery driver to leave the thing I have to sign on the mat, tell him to move back a few feet, will sign for it, close the door and he can leave the package..its not me, its my mom she is totally paranoid about having face to face with folks right now even with a good mask on..the lady said they dont deliver on saturday anyway so nothing will be coming tomorrow so either monday she said or tuesday..she said its coming from the apple warehouse in Rialto, CA
