Been stuck on "Preparing for Shipment' for a day and a half now… has anyone had Shipping Notifications today? If so whats your delivery date? Hoping if it ships today it *may* be here (UK) on Xmas Eve?
 
Let's hope it gets out for delivery tomorrow? :D

You lot probably will on the mainland, providing they turnaround the merge before their last collection of the day from UPS (likely around 16:30-17:00). As i'm on Isle of Man, it will take at least 1 more day and we only get deliveries on certain days of the week. I think I'm looking at next week sometime now
 
Mines has Exception marked on it What does this mean? Its been left at the UPS Facility in Glasgow can't find any in Glasgow, However there is one in Coatbridge which is where i am from.... will they allowed me to pick it up? What proof do i need Driving License?
 
What does this status mean?
Code:
In Transit to Customer - Shipment on Schedule

My estimate delivery date is still January 2nd. I really need it before Xmas or right after (gift for my wife).

Is it possible?? Does any logistic company work on Dec 24-26th??

Ups seems to work the 24:th of dec, just talked to them now and they said that my package should arrive now friday the 21:th or monday the 24:th of dec.
Really hope on friday...

Id say probably best to ring them and ask, I am sure that it will not be a problem to pick it up.

Same here, delivery date is scheduled for 2 Jan - 7 Jan - I am guessing that if it actually ships tomorrow than it could be here for Monday. I'm sure I read somewhere on here that it takes 3 days from China to your door, but I could have been wrong and the fact that it's Christmas Eve won't help.

Same delivery window for me (slipped from Dec 28-Jan 4 when I cancelled Applecare GRR.) Here's hoping for movement today… there doesn't seem to have been any new shipments for a few days so it must be time...

Same here. Getting frustrated now, especially when people who ordered well into December are getting them.

Preparing for shipping for over 50 hours

Hi guys.

My order has been on "Preparing for shipping" for over 50 hours.

Has this happened to one of you?

I don't know what to make of it. I thought it lasted around 24 hours before switching to "Shipped"... :confused:
 
same for me

Mine is in preparing for shimpment from 18:00 CET last Monday. My scheduled delivery date is 3 -9 Jen.
I hope to have it for 27 or 28 Dec. almost 31 it could be fine.

But why so many time in this like zombie state?

I have the exact same problem! :confused:

Do any of you guys (or girls) know a reason for this?

At this time I think they are waiting for the right time to ship just to avoid Christmas stop. Maybe they couls ship tomorrow and delivery between 27/28

This is standard. Mine shipped at the end of the 3rd day. I think that's uniform across the board.

I think you will find that, as you obviously ordered after me, they have delivered you my one instead. If you could be a good chap and forward it on to me that'd be grand!
 
iMac Arrived

Mine arrived yesterday, ordered 30th Nov.
No marks, no dead pixels.
Very happy.
Will not be spending much time on forums for the rest of the year ! :)
 
I really hope that I will get it before the weekend too. Otherwise it's going to be a painful weekend for me. The 48 hour weekend will certainly feel like a week.

I just got my invoice emailed to me. I hope that's a sign that they've completed the merge and it'll be collected today by UPS :D
