LOL hopefully my next MBP purchase I can join this UK thread - originate from NW UK (Manc) but currently living in deepest Japan.
Currently waiting for a "base" M1Max in Japan with a 4th to 11th December date.
Keep checking the order status / my phone for signs of movement.

Ahhhh the waiting is painful =D

My Harber London Deep Brown leather sleeve arrived via FedEx this morning having been dispatched from Elche (near Valencia) Spain just yesterday afternoon. I pre-ordered 6 days ago and expected a 14 day wait.

I hope these photos help others to decide if it’s what they’re after. I’m pleased with the quality and snug fit. I’m happy with the colour too but did hope it would be a shade or two darker (like the ‘Java’ Bellroy Slim Sleeve wallet that I use). For the price I think this is excellent value for money.

Anyone wanting a 20% discount code, just DM me.

Thanks for the picture. Looks good.

I’m still in two minds over this of the one from woolnut ( they only do a cognac brown and black though) and the woolnut is nearly twice the price of this too! Hanging on till Black Friday and see if they have any offers.

Don’t have a mac to put it on yet so not rush

The Woolnut looks great too and has the advantage of being able to charge whilst in the sleeve because of the different orientation.

They are only available on pre-order at the moment with 10% discount and delivery late November. €107.10 so not cheap. With them being on pre-order rather than stock items I’d be surprised if they discount further for Black Friday. Hopefully I’m wrong about that.

Boom! On the bus back from Transnistria to Chisinău and my MacBook has shipped! Due to be delivered to Aberdeen on Tuesday.

Luckily I’m heading home from Glasgow that day and then heading to Norway on Wednesday so I’m super happy to get a MacBook back as the temporary Dell Vostro I’ve been using is painfully awful 😂

Exchanged by BTO model (upgraded to 10/14 M1 Pro) for a base model 14" yesterday. Love the computer but after watching many comparison videos, would rather have an extra £200 in my pocket than a few seconds quicker Xcode builds, especially as I'm only a hobbyist!

KRCS are doing a BF 10% discount on the new MacBooks with their additional warranty cover on top ie no need to spend extra on Apple Care.

Not a bad deal at all! No Max 14" models, however.

Well I must be cursed. No tracking updates on my Harber sleeve since Tuesday. Reckon it’s gone missing.

Still nothing on my MacBook either - seems delay was real yet order info still shows 9-16 November!

Fingers crossed it’s will ship from Syncreon. If so you could get to moved to PFS to shipped in a matter of hours. Still a chance it could come Monday or Tuesday to meet the 16th so you might get updates tomorrow if so!

 
My Black Friday shopping list it getting longer!

Woolnut case if on offer
Satechi desk pad
New desk and chair
New ultra wide monitor

So also need a coffee machine (bean to cup) if something decent becomes available

🤣 we bought a bean to cup a couple of years ago and love it!

What’s the desk pad about?

Agree on a chair, desperately need a new chair. My desk is two IKEA draw units with a worktop between them. I love it!

It’s just a pad to protect the desk but I like the look of them too!

Had a pump espresso got a while but it’s such a faff to grind beans, set up and then clean for just 1 cup. And the manual milk frother is a chore.

Could return the MacBook book and buy this
