MacBook Shipping Times

[MattQiu]

If apecode shows that your shipment has reached Europe you should be able to track it at TNT (but maybe not right away - it can take some time for the tracker to be up to date...)

how do i know if my MB has reached Europe? my order status on apecode just had updated:

23 may 06 86 14 booking slot obtained CNSHA50 24 may 06
23 may 06 30 10 departed direct NLAMS07 24 may 06
23 may 06 40 69 accept scanned at EDC NLAMS07 02 jun 06
20 may 06 32 55 flight departed Kuehne & Nagel Shanghai 02 jun 06
20 may 06 32 05 Flight Booked Kuehne & Nagel Shanghai

The race is on! The winner gets nothing but geek pride for having theirs minutes before the loser.

I'd say "accept scanned at EDC" means it arrived at the European Distribution Centre... I'm betting its in Europe.

Looks like yours was on the same flight as mine My guess is that "accept scanned at EDC NLAMS07" means that it has reached Europe (EDC = European Distribution Centre (??) and NLAMS = Netherlands, Amsterdam). However this is just my guess (and hope, as mine is also "scanned at EDC") and I could be wrong... I cannot track my shipment at TNT yet, but this usually takes some time so I'm not too worried.

Edit: Seems like erickg types a bit faster than me

Well my sister's one apparently didn't even get to Arnhern and is now in UK. Your one doesn't seem to show any action in Pudong like mine and hers did... I'd say this tracking thing, like a few other people have said of here, is screwed...

I'm hoping it'll arrive tomorrow. I can't see that i would take more than a day to get from Northampton to Plymouth.

thanks eric and tame. if the MB is in Europe now, then i should get it within this week i think

I think I seen somewhere that the TNT tracking doesn't getting updated live, but instead only gets updated in the morning.

My dad used to be a truck driver and he says there is the possibility of it already being out for delivery. I'm tempted to say that it's gonna get delivered tomorrow when we're all out and I'm yet again going to need to go to turnhouse at the back of Edinburgh Airport to pick up the parcel

That's happened almost every time I've bought something from Apple.

 

[fraserdrew]

Yeah, i've got to say i think it msut be something like that, because it seems to move thro different depots, and never apear on the system.
O well, MacBooks ASAP please TNT!!

EricChunky - which flight were you on?

But of course I wasn't home at the delivery. I rang TNT and asked when I could expect the delivery, but they couldn't say at what time it would be here, because (as many have said before) of Apple choosing the cheapest delivery. However they did say "we are early on this delivery, it should in fact not be delivered before May 26". Like I care Now I have to stay home tomorrow, but I've the feeling they'll be here as soon as I've to leave for work in the afternoon. My bank account is empty and I really want to touch my MacBook. It's sick

I guess that means you were on the 20th May, as it was received on the 21st in Amsterdam. Mine must have been on the same flight but looks like it may be lagging as there is no sign of it being in the UK yet. Still, it may just be the tracking info and it may be winging its way to my door as we speak...

 

[kvakulo]

Awww... man! That sucks. Hopefully they'll redeliver at about the same time as they did today so you'll be able to enjoy it tomorrow!

Unfortunately the person I talked to couldn't tell me when they tried to deliver today. So I've absolutely no idea of when Big Bang II will happen.

 

[gazcross]

OK I'm confused, the fat that my parcel arrived in Europe before many parcels, yet it STILL hasnt got to the UK. I have rung TNT who told me its STILL in Arnham and will get to the UK tonight for delivery tomorrow.

TNT - Are you REALLY trying to pee me off.
