Sort of. They "tracked" my order and showed it was in seattle (not sure where) and awaiting a carrier pickup. They more than likely lied just to get me off the phone. Worst customer service ever.

BTW There is a Bestbuy Distribution Center in Kent

Mine says preparing too. Doesn't say it's arriving tomorrow though. At this point I don't trust BB, but this is further than my 15 ever got. I think there is an issue with the 15s. I would have thought more people buy the 13?

Mine just states Get by Nov. 16th, but I take that with a grain of salt. It was Get by Nov 17th when I initially ordered though

Yeah they stink for sure. I am done with BB. I will do all I can in the future to bring my business elsewhere. Especially for big $$ items. I will be in the market for a 70 inch TV soon. I am going to make it a point to go into Magnolia ask TONS of questions and then google where I can buy the same TV in front of the sales rep and make him watch me check out on my phone right there on the spot. Then I will tell him this story..Payback. I WILL do it too trust me. ;)

View attachment 672632 I was one of the unlucky Best Buy preorders that got bumped to the 21st.

Decided to stop into my local Apple Store on the way home on the off chance they'd have stock. Left with the 15" base model!

They have stock of several configs in both 13 and 15 inch sizes. Window and table displays are going up after hours tonight.

If you got screwed by Best Buy, stop by your local Apple Store tonight or tomorrow and leave happy! Good luck!
You need a shorter inseam on your pants. It looks like you're approx 2"-3" too long on the inseam length

Unfortunately, no Apple stores within reasonable driving distance.

I will say.... If Best Buy shows in-store stock anywhere tomorrow on 15's, that'll really chap my butt...

Got an email saying my laptop was delayed until the 17th after getting a shipping email with a delivery date of the 16th earlier today.

Anyone else with a similar situation?

what size? Seems like most with the 15" were delayed until Monday. 13" seem like they're still on track.
 
Anybody have any idea when Best Buy will get more in since it currently doesn't let you order the 13, says out of stock...
 
Just got my update that it has shipped through Fed Ex and will be here tomorrow! or today...I am in the east coast.

I just checked, it shows all 13" available to pre order and have them delivered by Thursday, maybe it's in your area since it's based on zip codes.

It's funny, I'm in the east coast too, and earlier today mine shipped by UPS Next Day Air Saver. I wonder what dictates whether it ships fedex or ups..

Yeah, it says that for me too. But add it to your cart and try to go to the checkout screen, it removes it from your cart.
 
It looks like all of Best Buy's ship dates for both 13" and 15" models are now "Get it by 11/22" or later if you preorder now.
 
For those shafted by BB check your stores. My zip code is showing in store pick up for some models.
 
One of the 13" says available for pickup on Saturday around here (not that I'd trust that at this point anyway). From what I can see the 15" models just say not available next to store availability.

I've definitely been keeping an eye on this too though. Really would like to have one before leaving town.

My guess is the silver colors of the 13" will show up in store. There is a much higher demand for space grey. I'm still probably going to just keep my no TB model since I can get a price match at the micro center price of $1299.
 
My 13 in is actually out for delivery after all! I think the delay is still primarily/solely on 15 " systems.
 
Hey guys. I'm new to this forum. Wanted to share some information with you guys. Ordered a 15 in base model on Oct. 28th. Also got that email of the delay yesterday. As of this morning though was charged to my credit card and status is now 'order received' hope that means good news!

agreed...Like I said earlier in the thread. I ordered a 15 and 13 and the 15 got delayed and the 13 shipped today. Way to go again Apple!

Now it's preparing for shipment!
I ordered a 15" on the 29th and still awaiting auth and in progress. bestbuy cs keeps telling me that the 21st is the release date and thats why we won't get them until then. thats great that yours is preparing for shipment. if its 1 day shipping you might receive it by tomorrow if it ships today! keep us updated as to any changes.
