Driving from Cambridge to Arnhem? anyhow apparently they don't allow you to pick up from there depots, someone (another thread, maybe this one😕 ) who lived near the depot called and tried but was not allowed....

I thought you would know:
My MacBook called me from the airport ;-) He said they're having great time in China! TNT puts them on a special VIP room only for Macs with broadband internet connection so they can check your mail, surf the web... and share iTunes music with each other.
He also said that he'll send me an SMS with Skype as soon as the plane lands in Europe.

I've been told they do... no drive to Wellinborough around 50 miles from where I live to get it. They better let me get it! Just because they cant deliver on a Tuesday I;m gonna spend my own time and petrol to save them expenses and they gonna reject? Anyway, they have the whole pickup thing on their site, and when I phoned today they never said anything about not being allowed to?
I ordered my MBP with a ram upgrade earlier this evening. The website says 1-3 day shipping, but I'm not counting on that. What's the average shipping time for these?
(I can't check because I had my brother place the order for me. 25% discount, whee!)

Damn shame we don't get the flight number so we can check where the plane is 🙂 😱
Maybe our books are having a tour of the caspian sea right now!

No update:
25 May 2006 20:47 Suzhou Shipped From Originating Depot
24 May 2006 21:58 Suzhou Consignment Received At Transit Point
I wonder if the plane stops somewhere or come to Europe directly??
I'm from The Netherlands, so my MacBook is now about 50km away of me. I've an update too:Legacy said:
27 mei 2006 01:18 Eindhoven Import Received
I'm sure here the travel ends, and from here it will go to my place Monday, i think. They do'nt deliver on Saturday, i asked them yesterday 🙁
I think you have to call if you can pick it up there. I think it isn't possible, beceause it's often a big distribution centre, but you can try.
It think directly, but you'll have to be a little bit more patient, i think. Your MacBook is shipped from Suzhou to the airport, and there it is waiting for a plane. And i'm not sure if the plane goes every 24 hours.mrbassman said:

Hey you know what makes the coincidence even more crazy? I'm a bassman myself 🙂 My apple page now says "probable delivery on may 30th", meaning tuesday. That's 2 days improvement. 🙂 No news from TNT yet.
Getting closer and closer!

Update, yes. Shiny, eh. 🙁
26 mei 2006 12:00 Pudong International Airport Potential Connection Delay
Wait what? May 26th? That's like over 24h ago, taking the timezones into account? Why on earth does my TNT refresh 24h late?
AlexanderOnline said:
Mine arrived at the distribution center at Schiphol this morning (at 2am!). Just gave TNT a ring but I can't pick it up myself unfortunately. Well, I'm pretty happy to know I'll have it on monday for sure... Glad to have put the uncertainty behind me at least. 🙂
chotoye said:
Do they all go to Northampton first? I'm waiting for an update to Wellinborough to get on their case for a pickup😱
Bad news for the group that shipped from Suzhou at 20:47 on 25 May 2006 :-(
"26 May 2006 12:00 Potential Connection Delay".
That is some MacBooks shipping to: Swindon, Chepstow, Aldershot, Basildon, Madrid, Barcelona, Alcantara, Estepona, Oslo...

Eh... what's the deal with "arrived in brussels", then "back to birmingham"??
British people have a weird sense of humor.
Reno404 said:
I think that's got something to do with the time zones that it travels and the times inputted as being local times?
Im not even sure if that theory makes sense. The continent is generally ahead of the UK in time.
Perhaps the data entry monkeys werent too efficient on work that early in the morning?
chotoye said:
Right damn, they go to a main depot for customs, get sorted out and then arrive at the local depot...god knows that time or date that will be EST Del. is Tuesday for me. I was hoping they would get it at the local depot this afternoon or something so I can get it. Great! lol🙄
Legacy said:
Stupid weekend bank holiday thing. It's going to be Tuesday isn't it?? Blahdy blah.
chotoye said:
Well I am not picking up on Sun/Mon/Tue I have exams to revise for so the only day I am bothered to get it is today. I really wanna get it out of the way, check that its all in shape and then be able to concentrate on my work! The more I read about faults and stuff the more I get anxious😱
Is is usual to wait for two weeks for something to be shipped?
I ordered on May 23, was supposed to have shipped May 26. Now ship date is set for June 2 and arrival for June 7. And to think I paid extra for two-day delivery. What a scam. I'd rather drive two hours to Boise this week and get one locally.
