I have almost the same departure times as you. Mine is going to Norman, OK. I have the same estimated arrival time as you. I really hope that it gets in early.
 
Mine also left Memphis at 3:21pm today; it's heading to Nova Scotia, Canada, with an estimated delivery of the 5th before 5pm. I'd love to get it Wednesday or even Tuesday, I'm really curious to know where it's headed next...

2.8ghz with a 7200rpm 320gb hard drive :)
 
Macbook Pro

it should be arrived at Miami Fedex location for a few hours (i tracked the Fedex flight lol). As the computer travelled from Shangai to Memphis in less than 2 days, i would expect to be delivered tomorrow since less than 300 miles have to be done to reach the destination.
I've aslo heard that Fedex generally delivers 1 day before the date written on your tracking.

Arrived this afternoon! Setting it up as I type. No problems so far. I cannot believe I waited so long to update... my pb pales by comparison in all areas.:)

Quoted myself here, I know.
I still get the "In transit to final destination - carrier details to be updated shortly"-message, and we're now close to 60 hours past shipment. Should I be worried something went wrong?

Apples site still says:
"It may take up to 24 hours for shipment tracking information to be updated on our carriers' web sites."
Click to expand...

Quoted myself again here. I still havn't heard anything. 144 hours have past since my order shipped, but still no tracking info.

I called Apple today, and they said that everything is going as planned, and that it is somewhere in the Netherlands now. I'd like to get a tracking number to see it for myself though...

Congrats to everyone who have recieved their new machine. Can't wat to be one of you... hopefully sometime this year...

What is the average ship time?

Hello all,

I ordered the following MBP on October 21st:

Configuration: 2.8Ghz/320GB@7200rpm
Order: 21st Oct 1:34PM PST
Shipping method: FedEx 2-3 Day
Shipping status: Not yet shipped
Courier service (Fedex, UPS or DHL): N/A
Shipped/Received date: N/A

It was to ship in 7-10 business days and deliver between Oct 31 & Nov 7 -- but today (Nov 4) is business day #10, and I see no signs of my MBP shipping.

Has this been a regular delay, or should I be worried?

Thank you all in advance for your replies!
Jason
 
I ordered the same config. as you, on the same day.
Shipped 10/30, arrived 11/3. However, I would not expect it to ship today (election day). If it hasn't shipped by tomorrow, call.

Well, I woke up this morning to an email from Apple:

Due to an unexpected delay, we now anticipate shipping the following item(s) as follows:

Z0G0, MBP 15.4/CTO
Ships by 2 - 4 Business days
Delivers by Nov 10 - Nov 17


I called customer service to find out what the hold up was, and the lady was very confrontational about the whole thing. She gave me three different excuses for why it hadn't shipped:

1) It was delayed in customs (even though it hadn't shipped)
2) There was a goof up with my 2nd credit card (that wasn't it, because that card was for a separate piece that was cancelled)
3) With her first two excuses debunked, she told me it was my bank's fault because they didn't verify the funds until today.

This really got me steaming, because I had talked to my bank on 10/22 (the day after I ordered my MBP) to confirm a purchase that big, and they told me Apple had already secured the funds.

All I could do was hang up and confirm with my bank, and sure enough they had two separate amounts secured on 10/22 -- one for the MBP, and one for CS4.

I called Apple CS back and asked for a supervisor, and while she was sympathetic to the problem I encountered with the CSR, she was only willing to throw in a $35 Incase sleeve.

I guess it is better than nothing, but as far as I am concerned that makes up for the CSR I had to deal with, and the time it took to call my bank, then call Apple again just to repeat everything to another CSR, wait on hold, and repeat it yet again to the supervisor. This does nothing for my MBP delay, which I may not get until 11/17!! That is 28 days after I ordered it.

I love Apple, but this has been a nightmare. If I had known that the online ordering would be this horrible, I would have gone straight to the Apple store and bought a stock unit.

Nooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!

THEY'VE PUSHED IT BACK AGAIN!!!

They didn't even bother with emailing me this time. I just went to look at my Order Status page and saw this:

PushedDateAgain.jpg


The new date is November 21st -- exactly one month after my October 21st order.

Has anyone else experienced anything like this?!?!!?

They must be backordered on the drive. I ordered a 2.8GHz/SSD on 10/28, shipped 10/31, delivered 11/3. I'd call them and ask for an explanation on the delay.
 
I asked them yesterday, but they said that they didn't have that information.

Can they get it?

That's kinda making me nervous then. I put in an order with the same specs on Nov. 1st and it's supposed to ship in 3 - 5 business days and be delivered to Ann Arbor sometime between Nov 7 - Nov 13.
 
I just called customer service and they told me that my MBP was set to ship in 12 hours or so. Hopefully i won't run into any of the issues everybody else is dealing with.
 
Finally it shipped :D
