who is K&N anyway?
Because if they still plan to merge in the uk I'm then the site tells usbthat it will arrive in the UK on the11th (today) so we might still be good for a thursday delivery:)

After a quick google, K&N = Kuhne & Nagel

K&N = Kuhne and Nagel - a massive logistics company

I would have thought that our extra items are sitting in a TNT warehouse somewhere in the UK and the merging will happen as the MPBs arrive.

I'm actually thinking a 14th delivery is looking very possible. Any later than that and I'll cry.
 
If that 11th date is the date that it arrives in the UK then it is still feasible that delivery could be made tomorrow, but more likely Thursday. If it is the day it arrives in Luxembourg then we are looking at Thursday/Friday.

I have no more clue than anyone else though :eek:
 
I don't know how I got suckered into this thread - I was doing so well until a few days ago :eek:

Well you started it!

Anyway I think its run by Unipart.

I still expect it Thursday/Friday - can't really complain if its Monday, but any later.......................
 
Just to let you all know that I'm now the proud owner of a macbook pro. It's working fine, no faults or defects of any kind. I'm very happy. Take it easy.

exactly what I was told - yet after not even a sniff of a tracking number and the same old faithful information

Shipped to NEWCASTLE, GB 05 Nov 2008
Estimated Delivery Date (Subject to change) 14 Nov 2008 (Subject to change)
Current Delivery Status In Transit to Customer - Shipment on Schedule 11 Nov 2008
Signed by

looks doubtful to me
 
ninman's was 7 working days from shipping. That would mean mine is likely Friday. Previously in this thread its been 6 working days so in summary, they are not far off.

I've been foruming around and there are rumors of the 320@7200 HDD being faulty so they are quietly replacing them, one by one, in Luxemburgh.

_Is the ":mad:" necessary here ?
_Yes it is!:mad:

this seems like a highly plausable rumour - given what we were seperately told on the phone

ELMANCHO can you tell me where you read this rumour? x

AND he is in Scotland which is possibly a day further away than me.......

I'm getting obsessive now aren't I?

I agree...

Edit1: I can't remember but I presume it was right on this forum... But it does look unlikely :s

14 long days I have avoided this thread or indeed any thread - I'm just angry because I don't know what's going on and Apple won't tell me anything. Plus they changed my delivery date 3 times already. For a professional machine that I kinda already rely on - this is getting beyond a joke. Might I add I was lucky enough to purchase one of the IMac's several years ago that are plagued with the vertical line issues. If I didn't NEED to use a Mac, I seriously wouldn't.
 
elmancho said:
yeah but what's worrying is that he got his change of status on a sat, recieved it on a tue.
So if we don't get ours by 5pm...:eek:

2 working days, so tomorrow for Friday.

Unless there is another day in there for Scotland
