My UK order lands at Heathrow in just over an hour on Etihad flight 017 from Shanghai via Abu Dhabi. :) Still quoting delivery on 20th.

According to Expeditors (www.expeditors.com) the shipment weighs 717 kg and is 5.453 cubic metres. How many 27" iMacs in that? :eek:

Well assuming they are all 27" iMacs in the shipment, approximately 75, minus a few due to the weight of the packaging. :D
 
Yes, mine is merging due to AppleCare.

If anyone else is selling 2x4GB Apple sticks of RAM from their iMac. PM me, I'll buy em lol (in UK).

Is the iMac ram any different to the MBP Ram. I was thinking of upgrading to 16Gb.

My Ram is from Crucial 2 x 4Gb 1333Mhz DDR3, although I think it is actually 1600Mhz but running at 1333Mhz, but I could be wrong.

So if you want to buy mine, let me know

Etihad 867 was the flight number from Shanghai to Abu Dhabi. It is Etihad 017 from there to Heathrow. So it looks like yours is one of the 75! :)
 
Urghhhhh I am so mad....

I was going to order on launch day, and my fastest delivery time was going to be 27th-1st...


because I am on holiday starting the 22nd, I didn't order. Now, I see that people get theirs shipped and delivered way ahead of their first quoted delivery time...

I ordered mine as soon as it said Delivery in January... Now I can only hope they don't deliver when I am gone...

It's on a lorry from Frankfurt to Heathrow (LH7726 is a "Road Feeder Service"). It flew from Shanghai to Frankfurt the previous day.

The remaining steps from here should be: 1. clear customs (tomorrow); 2. Goldstar delivery to Apple's merge facility (Monday); 3. UPS delivery of merged items (Monday night, arriving Tuesday).
 
My 27" base model with Fusion just left China, due UK on the 21st according to Apple 19th according to UPS.
Ordered at 14:30 on the 30th, my original estimate was 2-4th Jan.
I haven't been this excited about a Mac in years!

Darn it, my original delivery date was 2-4th Jan. still exactly the same, processing :((. Apple not going to get mine on time I fear

Mine is on the same lorry! My order's merging with a DVD drive. Scheduled delivery to Belfast is for Friday but I'm hoping it will be earlier.
 
My order is still processing and I'm losing hope for pre-Xmas delivery:(:(:(:mad:. Ordered on Dec 3rd, shipping 3-4 weeks, delivery 4-10 January.

Is it still possible? When my status will change?
