Preparing for Shipping?

A_ardvark said:
Well I guess I should have paid for expedited shipping! I ordered a 13 inch with the i5, 16gb of ram, and the 512gb ssd. I think this is the sweet spot this year.

I ordered on the 21st and the delivery date went from August 3rd to the 2nd and now to the 7th. This was within their original delivery window, but my experience with Apple is that things deliver on or before the earliest expected date. That was definitely the case with the Beats. Lesson learned!

In France we don't have any expedited shipping option. Seems like we are an exception :/

Mine has been scheduled for the 2nd by UPS since Inhad the tracking number and for the 1st by Apple.

Had the update on my tracking in the meantime, our Mac has arrived in Koeln.

My Mac has arrived in Koeln with yours. I can't believe that it'll take the same time to deliver in Berlin as to deliver in France or UK :confused:
But I also got the 1st as delivery date..
 
Was expecting today, but DPD delays... visited the depot and told they can’t find the parcel :(:(:mad::eek:

Logged a lost report , however they have said it maybe at the pickup point just that it wasn’t scanned or scan error... find out tomorrow :-(

Sounds bad indeed... but some human error is the most certain reason why it has not been properly scanned.
 
Apparently mine has dispatched no idea how to track it but it will be here next week after its joined up with other parts of the order apparently.

Exciting.

For the members in Europe waiting their Mac wanna try and guess on which plane their package may be flying, you could try it here :

This is a guess for example for flights from Koeln and going to Paris.

For London this should be the list you may try : https://uk.flightaware.com/live/findflight?origin=EDDK&destination=ZLN

You should be able to click on a Track shipment link in your Apple page soon. This will show you the tracking number you may click to get a full tracking.

Cheers, nothing showing just yet I wait with baited breath, current estimated for the 9th which seems a way out but see if that changes.
 
My MBP is currently in Tamworth, which is about 100 miles away from where I am, but still on schedule to deliver tomorrow...hopefully it moves up here overnight/super early tomorrow morning.
 
How long does it usually take for a BTO 15” order to change status from “Processing” to “Preparing to ship”? It’s already been around 30 hours since I placed the order

I did expedited shipping. Ordered mines on Wednesday.. switched to preparing for shipping on Sunday I believe.
 
Woohoo! Looks like mine is going to be delivered earlier than expected. Scheduled for delivery today rather than tomorrow. Pretty impressed that my original delivery date of 7-9 August has now shifted to 31 July :)

Great ! Enjoy ! It's Fedex or UPS in UK ?

Mine should have landed in Paris this morning since it left early Koeln, but no tracking update so far. Definitely hoping for a delivery tomorrow...!
 
Ordered for pickup at Robina Apple (Gold Coast) and it was ready for pickup 30 miinutes after ordering.

No damage out of the box to this one thankfully.

Ordered my 13" i7/16/512 yesterday morning. Gave me a est. date of 9th-13th of August but now it's been dispatched it's changed to the 3rd. Happy days.

Mine was stuck in Shanghai for four days, got bumped back to August 7th. Once it left China things started moving really fast and and now it’s back to the 2nd.
