Why so late? When did you order?
What are you computer specs? I think i7 machines take ages.
Got a tip for us?

Djeez that sucks ! I ordered mine (BTO 15inch I7 hires antiglare) via the Apple Store on the 14th April. And it arrived the 27th april, after being stuck for 5 days or so in Shanghai.
Ask for your money back and re-order from the Apple Store ? Or wait a few more days ? In any case I would complain seriously and ask for some intervention (a free sleeve, soft)...
2.66GHz Intel Core i7
4GB 1066MHz DDR3 SDRM - 2x2GB
500GB Serial ATA Drive @ 7200
SuperDrive 8X DL
MBP 15" HR Glossy WS Display
Ordered on the 30th April
Shipped on the 8th May
Expected Delivery 21st May
No tracking number
Ordered May 3
5-7 business days to ship, 20-25 May delivery.
7 business days gone and no change yet.
15" 2.4 HR Glossy, standard the rest.
I assume it's ship from china, where it says not ready and not ship from the merge in GB part for applecare and cheap printer?
Anyway, it's a long old wait isn't it?

My MBP went into "Prepared for Shipment" at like 2 AM here but then this morning it changed back to "Not yet shipped".
What gives?

I'm about to put my order in online tomorrow afternoon for a 15" 2.4 i5 HR matte, which online says 24 hr to ship, so how longs that likely to take? a few weeks??? :/ grr
Same happened to me. Probably not worth worrying about yet.
Edit: Just received the email confirming that the order has shipped. What we both saw may have been a bit of a glitch while tracking numbers were assigned.

Odd. It has changed back and forth 3 times now and I don't have any tracking number or anything. The status is back on "Not Yet Shipped".
Okay, it finally shipped.
I had one question. The email I received has my landline phone as the contact even though the shipping address I put in had my mobile (which I prefer as my landline doesn't work sometimes).
Does the shipping label on the box have a phone number at all? It might be important in my case as I live in Uni. Halls and obviously, the guy won't be able to find my room. Usually, the delivery guy calls me down and I sign the papers he has, but if Apple doesn't include a phone, then this may cause issues. Any advise?

Mine shipped today from china. Reckons it'll take another fortnight to gettome in the Uk. Do they go by camel?🙄
Nope, it will go through the Somali waters if the ash gets worse I'm afraid... =/
Jokes aside, it will get here pretty fast, like within 3 business days if everything goes fine from China to UK. 🙂
Mine ordered on the 15th of april... still no sign!!! 😡 <-- this smiley is not even a little representative of how angry I am right now!!
Hee you should read my post in the other thread; 'has your mbp shipped yet?'
Might be usefull to you...
Goodluck!
TNT's tracking page states:
17 May 2010 21:27:16 Arnhem Hub Shipment In Transit.
What is Arhhem hub? Isn't it a city in the Netherlands?
The estimated date is still listed as 18th-19th May on Apple's Order Status page. Can i realistically expect it to be there then?
Also, does the above line mean that it has departed Arnhem Hub at 21:27 or arrived there?

My MacBook pro is now in Alaska when it is coming to the UK.
Apple's original delivery estimate and thatof UPS was that of Friday 11 March but now it seems that it won't arrive before Tuesday next week.
That is 9 days to reach the UK from China. And it's just a stock MBP.
Beyond silly. FedEx is on my eyes the only reliable courier out there.
