Same here.. 2.4 i5 16Gb 256GB

Ask for a replacement unit at 10/12 as my previous unit battery died after the first charge.

Till now still processing.. So slow. Wish it could reach by Christmas.
 
13in/i7/16GB/512GB
  • Ordered on 11/30
  • Shipped to store
  • ETA 12/23
  • Still processing :(
Status has now changed to 'Preparing for Shipment' :D

I'm not too sure how long it takes once it's shipped to get to the requested store for pickup, but I can't imagine it taking 9 more days. But no biggie, I'm not opening it until Christmas anyhow :)
Status has now changed to 'Shipping to Store'. Availability has changed from December 23rd to December 19th! It's a Christmas miracle! :D
Ready for pickup!!! Going to pick it up tomorrow, yay!!!
 
it just dropped to 1-2 weeks... any chance it'll go down even more?

Maybe. It went down to 1-2 weeks a few weeks ago, then stayed there for a bit, then went up to 2-3 weeks.

If anyone wants one, I wouldn't suggest waiting. That's what I did for a week or two, then ordered mine and got mine and am happy. It would be good news for everybody if it went back down to 1-3 days permanently, but anyone wanting their rMBP now has nothing to gain by waiting.

For the first two weeks that I waited to order, I just assumed that it would go back down to 1-3 business days. But nope.
 
finally here :)

guys, my unit was delivered yesterday.
it's a beauty and it's absolutely blazing fast.
the screen is flawless and sharp.

it doesn't feel much bigger than my Air 11,
but delivers the power I needed for all my stuff.

looking forward to using it, as soon as I've transferred all my data and configured the whole system

thank you all for offering this thread to share our frustrations in this long wait.
good luck with your units.

cheers

Glad you got it before Christmas! What screen model you got?
 
Got my replacement yesterday (bad IR on the one i send back) and its a keeper :) Uniform color, no backlight bleeding and much better in terms of IR, after 10 minutes chessboard hardly anything left to see on the grey background. Serial C02LV with a screen from week 4 this year.
 
My order was updated yesterday with an UPS tracking number which says that I should have my rMBP delivered on Monday. It's arriving a couple of days later than expected at first but at least I'm getting it before Christmas and before Apple's new delivery estimate.
 
Fulfillment seems to be matching the current 1-2 week time on the store.

Ordered 13", 16GB, 2.8 i7, 512GB on 12/13 when estimate was 3-4 weeks, and just received shipping notification. Delivery on 12/24 to US.
 
Forgot to add, mine was delivered on Thursday of last week. Everything seems fine, nice uniform colour and no dead pixels or backlight issues. The display is amazing. <3
 
I ordered the 2.6GHz i5 with 16GB RAM and 512GB SSD back on 12/12/2013 when the shipping estimate was 3-4 weeks. I received my tracking number today, with a 12/24/2013 delivery estimate. The original estimate was 1/9/2014.

Another Festivus Miracle!

In transit :)

Ordered mine on 3rd of December and today I got a dispatch notification:) According to the UPS tracking its still in China and it will arrive UK this Friday 27th of Dec! :D I was hoping to get it before Christmas but not better late than never ;)

2.8GHz Dual-core Intel Core i7, Turbo Boost up to 3.3GHz (I will develop apps )
16GB 1600MHz DDR3L SDRAM (I will use vmware heavily)
256GB PCIe-based Flash Storage (Got NAS at home and lot of cloud storage)
 
I don't know what to do

I'm really upset with Apple.

I've ordered my i7/16/256 SSD on NOVEMBER 13.

The only difference with you is that I've ordered Western Spanish keyboard.

I've just received my FOURTH delay, with a "estimated" delivery dates 2-6 January. I've called a lot of times and they don't give me any solution. Any suggestions?

I`m really confused, I can't be so unlucky.
