New MBP NOT shipping from china??

[habliker]

I am a Canadian and I purchased a stock low-end 15" MBP 10:33 am EST on April 13th, and as I am checking my order status I see that my shipment's origin was not in China. Does this normally happen? Where did my MBP come from in Concord, Ontario?

If it was a normal configuration, you might get it from a warehouse where it's already at; BTOs (Build To Order) should be shipped straight from the factory in China.

Thanks.

That is what I figured but I wasn't sure as any other apple product I have purchased has come from China, and everyone else's tracking info that I have seen has originated in China.

I got my 15" MPB on Thursday from Best Buy in Kitchener. Their MPB deliveries came piecemeal in Fedex deliveries from a GTA location other than their warehouse. The Best Buy warehouse had no stock at that time. That location (Concord?) is probably where your MPB shipped from. I see the St. John's airport is now open after the fog and volcanic ash delays, so yours should soon be on the way from Dieppe.
