I had checked some of the previous tracking details on the thread and it took an extra 24h once it reached the merging centre. So I expect it on wednesday but I hope I'm wrong.
(mine and Slims are in the same pallet/box/container)
Got a tip for us?

Well it went from Pudong to LHR on Fri and finally got released from customs at 0900 this morning.
Though apparently the requested delivery date is tomorrow at 1400 - is that to the merging centre or me? Seems rediculous it's going to take 29 hrs to go to the next stage. It's getting closer and now frustrating me more
So impatient!
If it cleared customs at 9am this morning it'll probably be delivered to Apple today, ignore the requested delivery date. If so, you will get it yourself tomorrow.
Possible I guess, seeing as the flight got in 5 hours before it was expected to on the tracker, how's your delivery going jake?
Mine was delivered to Apple on Saturday and was passed onto UPS this morning (since UPS don't collect on weekends) so I'll get it tomorrow.
Off Topic: I see that you're from Doncaster btw, I'm from Rotherham so fairly close
Pretty cool!Has yours been cleared by customs yet and is Ready for Delivery?
If ours is on the same pallate then it will reach Apples Merging Warehouse (Leicester) today, then UPS will pick it up this evening/tonight (now this is when it gets confusing) UPS will either take it straight to your door depending on where you live or to the UPS depot in Tamworth.

It cleared customs about 20 minutes after you by the looks, 9am exactly, doesn't say anything about ready for delivery though, just 'import customs release - 9:00:00' at the top

You're having a minature Wembley Stadium built from what it looks like going past on the train to Sheffield!
Mine has arrived
Sweet! I am mega jealous! When did you order it then? (just for comparison)
Edit: Whoops! Was being lazy! So 22nd June to 2nd July - 11 days or 7 working days.

Just realised it says Estimated time of delivery - July 2nd 8pm, on the timeline page of tracking, will that be to the merging place? Them hopefully to my house by some time tomorrow...
Yep thats right. Expo tracking is just to merging centre. You had me worried for a minute that mine was delayed! Still awaiting delivery to merging centre! Hoping Slim is right and I get it tomorrow! Otherwise Wednesday!
Ahhhh, so what time does it say you're expected to get to the merging centre then? If like you said earlier with it taking another 24hrs once at merging that would be 8pm tomorrow for me, surely I'd get mine by Wednesday at the latest!
Well mine and Slims are together and was expected at 1400 today at the merging centre, but so far no updates still says Ready for Delivery. I reckon they will be given to UPS tomorrow for wednesday delivery so potentially yours will arrive on Thursday but I hope I am wrong and we get them tomorrow and wednesday!
UPDATE: Just changed to "out for delivery" but says it happened at 1700. Anyone know where the merging centre is?

I'm sure I read somewhere in this thread that it is in Leicester. My MacBook air seems to have been in the same batch as yours stating 'out for delivery' at the same time as yours. I take it that this means that its out for delivery to the merging centre?
I'd be over the moon if I were to get it tomorrow, but sod's law say's that it will come Wednesday as I am working away on Wednesday and won't be back home until late Thursday night.
Thats right the delivery is to the merging centre. If it is in Leicester its a bit annoying as its going to drive past me on the way there!
Also now out for delivery as of 5pm, looks like we've all been put in the same container or whatever you want to call it and will probably get it at the same time.. So I'm currently out for delivery as of 5pm and estimated delivery at 8pm..
Where did you get the estimated delivery time from? Would quite like to know when I am going to get it so I can make sure someones around to receive it!
By estimated im going by the one on Expo (should be the top of the time line collumn) sorry for getting your hopes up there! Be interesting to know what yours is though..
Mine shows an estimate for when it reached Heathrow which is 0731. Sure yours is ETA at merging centre?
Nope, when it reached heathrow was meant to be June 30th at 9pm, got there June 30th at about 4:30 pm, that's also 'time of arrival' where as this is delivery
It's currently 'out for delivery' with Goldstar if you have that?
Strange.. The goldstar is on the events page next for 'out for delivery'
this is my timeline..
02-Jul-2012 20:00:00 GMT Estimated Time of Delivery LHR
30-Jun-2012 16:53:00 GMT Actual Time of Arrival LHR
30-Jun-2012 21:01:00 GMT Estimated Time of Arrival LHR
30-Jun-2012 11:40:00 SGT Confirmed on Board (Departed)
30-Jun-2012 10:10:00 SGT Estimated Time of Departure
The eta on the timeline was when it was expected to be at heathrow as it says LHR next to it.
We have the same timeline and both are out for delivery with goldstar.
Hurry up Truck Driver!
UPDATE: Literally just refreshed..
'Services Completed: Delivered -Delivered to Consignee' Wherever that is..
