Members Waiting for Their Mac Pro w/ 8800GT to Ship (European market only)

By the way, what does the "Merge in transit" means? Being a finnish guy, well, it isn´t easy at the moment :)

AFAIK it means that they'll "merge" the different parts (displays, Mac Pro, AppleCare etc.) at the distribution center and then send them to you as a single shipment.
 
@RDS - Thank you for clarifying the 80xxx is the reference code. Maybe TNT have just updated the site.

I now have some details which states that it was picked up on the 11th. Delivery date still unknown. Well at least I should start to see some progress.

Getting closer now...

Mine shipped Friday from Cork (had receipt this morning) but has yet to appear on the tracking at TNT. It did expect it in London this morning :(

I spoke to Apple store today that explained the order might take longer because it had to merge in transit..... with a .Mac software box apparently being shipped from the UK. How frustrating is that? I could have picked one of those up at the Apple store yesterday if I had know it was going to delay my order. Does that even have software in it? It's probably just a box with an activation code in it or something. Very frustrating.
 
Heheh, now it is back to NL DISTRIBUTION CENTER and carrier number is 349*****. Hehe, my Mac Pro has an adventure of its life!
 
I called the Apple Store today (I didn't order from the Internet) and they said mine isn't shipping yet. And I already ordered the machine (which is stock, except for the 8800GT) in the 3rd week of January.

The frustrating thing is, I live in Apeldoorn, the Netherlands (NL). Guess where the Apple distribution center is located? YES. In my town.

Bah! :(

Mine too. Actually, that might be a good thing, at least as far as tracking is concerned, since it could mean that K&N has delivered it to the distribution center in NL. Hopefully the 3xxxxxxx tracking number will work on the TNT site shortly.

Cool! So UPS is now listed as Assigned Carrier? Did you get a different tracking number too? What's the Estimated Delivery Date?
Click to expand...
Yes, it is an Assigned Carrier. Tracking number is 1ZXXXXXXXXX, estimated delivery is 15th, that´s because I live in Finland, it´s far away :)

Well, I hope it´ll get here till Friday, otherwise... :D

Mine changed too, estimated delivery 14th, and the 80...-tracking_number now works with TNT.
 
Wahoo, this is the current state of my delivery.

"11 Feb 2008 19:55 Cork Shipped From Originating Depot
11 Feb 2008 19:10 Cork Consignment Received At Transit Point"

I live not far from Eastbourne on the south coast (UK), so not sure if I should expect this tomorrow, or the day after. Someone got their's who lives in Brighton, how long from the point above until you got yours.

Wahoo, double bonus, 10.5.2 came out as well, knowing 'our' luck our preloaded OSX has 10.5.1.

Gonna have to stay awake until I crash, just to sleep. :)
 
Well this is a good start to a very cold and foggy morning. This has put me in a better mood already.

12 Feb 2008 08:05 Maidstone Dwp Out For Delivery
12 Feb 2008 03:29 Maidstone Dwp Import Received

Hell yes. I will update all later once my better half hopefully rings to say, TNT has delivered :)

* Yawn *

Mornin' all!!

Well I was awoken by a nice friendly TNT chappie banging on my front door - my Mac Pro has ARRIVED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Was supposed to be delivered tomorrow but not complaining!! :D

Don't expect to hear from me for ..........a while !!!
 
sfxandy - Very cool. Now just pull a sicky and spend the day playing. Most Excellent. Enjoy.

PS, not sure if this has already been answered, but did your build come with 10.5.2, that would be the icing on the MP. Just wondering.

WAHOO... (sorry for shouting) but my MP has arrived, luckly my misses was at home. Damn excited now. Still I am going to have to clean up my messy office at home before the unboxing cermony.

Hope everyone else gets theirs real soon. Thanks for listening to my ramblings also. :D

First impressions .....

Sleek, shiny, sexy and so VERY VERY quiet!!! Ahem ........ apologies, onto more serious things :D

Mac Pro came with 10.5.1 build installed - as I type 10.5.2 is installing, weighed in at a hefty 341MB. Also a few iLife updates and a Quicktime update to go.

I think somebody asked about hard drives earlier in the thread, mine shipped with a Seagate 500GB - although I'm awaiting 3 x Western Digital 750GB S300 16MB drives (manufacturer code WD7500AAKS if anyone's interested !!!) so I'll be relegating the 500GB Seagate to a more menial existence in my Mac Pro and re-installing Leopard when these arrive Friday.

So far so good though!
 
I need help guys. My order has assigned carrier KUEHNE & NAGEL with carrier tracking number starting RTML but when I go to their page I tells me that it is incorrect number. Do you where or how to track it please?
 
1st post... will be joining the club soon..

vienna calling..
ordered my macpro (2,8ghz, 8gbram, 8800gt) via a german reseller (grid.de). they gave me notice that they expect to receive the machine from apple on the 21st, then change the ram and send it to me.. so i should have it by the end of february - fingers crossed.
they are exchanging the 2 gb ram with 4x2gb ram for 250 euro - a good pirce i think!
can't wait.. and while i do i always enjoy reading about other people waiting/recieving ;)
cheers
