Mine is still sitting in Shanghai. 16" SG M1Max 24core 32GB 2TB
Order: Nov 20th (Apple estimate Dec 10-16) (delivery to BC, CAN)
UPS #: Dec 5 (Apple lists Dec 14th delivery)
Live UPS #: Dec 10 (UPS says 15th, changed to 16th this weekend)
Just a few initial scans in Shanghai on Dec 10 and nothing since.
Just a few mins ago: "Your package is in transit, we are updating plans to schedule delivery"...delivery date not showing on UPS anymore...TBD....
I need this to be delivered by 17th or else delayed to 20th. Won't be around 18-20 (eve).
I'm actually hoping UPS doesn't deliver weekends as delivery 18 or 19th would not be good for me with a $4K laptop sitting by the front door.

Anyone else order a 14" around the first week of November and still in processing hell? I'm thinking the combo of 64GB RAM and M1 Max are what's holding me up. Seeing a number of 16" computers with similar specs ordered AFTER November 5th (my order date) that have shipped and been delivered.

I ordered mine on Nov 5, identical to yours except 32 GPU. Just got a pending charge yesterday. Still in processing.

Hey! we're cargo buddies. same config, same dates, and just got the same UPS update of "package in transit" (although in Shanghai).
 
I just cancelled a 16" M1 Max 32-core/64GB/4TB that was set to delivery in mid Jan. Decided I didn't need the 64GB of memory or the 4TB storage (a bit too much future proofing for me right now). Placed a new order for same delivery period for a 16" M1 max 32-core/32GB/2TB. hopefully this will help someone who is waiting on the 64GB get theirs just a tiny bit faster!

BH has a few configurations in stock (so they claim). Including an almost fully loaded one. 64MB, 8T, M1 MAX, but for some reason built with the 24 core CPU and not the 32. If you get their Own Payboo card and live in a state with Sales Tax they rebate the sales Tax, so that is good savings on a $6 K machine.

I would imagine you need to sign for it. I ordered Air Tags and I needed ID and a signature.

Maybe. But when I log into UPS and check the details of the shipment it doesn't list any signature required. UPS seems pretty cavalier around here about just leaving things regardless. We shall see what unfolds this week.
 
To update, mine finally got delivered! Ordered 10/30/21, 16" SG Pro Max 32 Core GPU, 64GB RAM, 1TB drive. Originally quoted to arrive 12/9-12/16, once it was shipped, Apple's status page said it would be delivered on 12/14 but it arrived today on 12/13 via DHL.

DHL's website was not very helpful in that it never gave an estimated delivery date or and their status updates were vague so today's delivery was a little bit of a surprise. But happy nonetheless that it finally arrived.

Now to make my way back up north in a few days to pick it up from my family's!

(And I also updated the Google Docs with my delivery date so others can compare)

Looks like mine has left KY and flight UPS478 took off around the same time and has landed in Hamilton. Hopefully it's just a quick truck ride here and delivered tomorrow.

Will have to set up a desk outside to keep an eye out for them.

I’m in the same boat, I have the same status. 2 days ago I was pushed back from 14 to 15 and now I don’t know. Mine is 16in silver, M1Max, 24 gpu, 32 ram and 1tb.

It seems like UPS have some troubles with their databases… Hope I’ll get it by the end of the week. I’m in Montreal, Qc, Canada.
 
DHL lost 14" 32gb 1 TB macbook in shanghai.... replacement now saying 1/10 - 1/17. Not sure if I should just cancel this order or wait it out. Rep said that I would be at the top of the list but who knows how long it'll take at this point...

Anyone have any experience with this? Do replacements of lost orders usually come a lot quicker or does it just depend on how fast apple is shipping out the machines?

I honestly think your computer has already left Shanghai, and is already at the next destination... it might just be that the package wasn't scanned properly and will still arrive either on the 16th or 17th regardless of what the tracking info says. The reason I'm almost confident is that I ordered the EXACT same configuration on November 29th. Mine left Shanghai Saturday and has been in Memphis, TN since Sunday with a scheduled delivery of December 17th (my original window was Dec 16 - 23). I don't see my computer shipping out and arriving before yours and you ordered more than a week before me. Granted, you're in Canada, so I'm not sure where your stuff goes right before it gets to you, but I think you're still good for Dec. 17th.

Same here, I have similar config but with Pro chip. Looks like all our computers are in a same batch, and I saw a few more people with similar order dates like November 24ish to 27ish, in that range. All statuses changed at the same time on ups, so computers must be travelling together!

Same is going on with mine. Originally set to be delivered today, then it flipped to the 15th and now there is no set delivery date and according to UPS it is still sitting in Shanghai (where it has been for the past 4 days).

That said, I have seen things come from China before where UPS doesn’t scan it at several points along the way and it goes straight from being somewhere overseas to at my local facility. But then they also lose things / run out of workers to move packages around. So who knows what is going on there.
