UK New MacBook Pro Thread.

I have the exact same status will be amazing if it comes tomorrow, do you know what courier it is and if we can track it?
Click to expand...

I don't think it will come tomorrow as the delivery dates mentioned on expeditors are delivery to the merging centre/UPS handover. I'd say it's very likely we will get a Tuesday delivery as long as you don't live in the sticks, but a monday delivery seems really slim. All IMO of course.

And the courier is UPS. I don't think Apple use TNT anymore.

So my MBPR is now showing "Arrived, not cleared for import" at London Heathrow. Hope the HMRC work sundays, public sector though so probably not. Still holding out for a UPS monday pickup + merge and then delivery on the tuesday.

Mine is due for delivery on Tuesday (17th) but UPS still have it in Koeln, Germany. Obviously, it likes the local hostpitality to much ;)

Hopefully, overnight to the UK and as i have nothing else coming, fingers crossed still on for Tuesday.

c.

How do you track with expeditors, i.e what tracking number? UPS one doesn't show anything.
 
ic2 said:
Go back into track an order on the Apple site. Click track shipment, the screen will then show you your assigned carrier, if it UPS then your tracking number should be underneath.
Click to expand...

Ah right. I don't have any of that information on mine which is a bit of a shame / weird. When I do track it gives me two numbers which end up directing to the same file. I don't think think I have one :(

There is obviously a big shipment coming over from Germany today. My MBA arrived there at 1.50am on Saturday morning and as og 7.28am this morning it is still there, no export scan or anything :( due for delivery tomorrow!
 
waiting waiting waiting

I placed my order on the 25th / June. Still in Processing. Due 3-4weeks, 24-30th July. As most people appear to be receiving theirs prior to the first forecast day and people that ordered from the 22nd with the same spec as mine (2.6/16/512) have their order changed to shipped already, I've got to hope for a change in status over the next couple of days. Also, all orders appear to be dropping to a 2-3 weeks delivery from now, to come in along with mine anyway. THERE IS NO POINT TO THIS POST. Just letting off steam!

I am at the stage where I have fun "work" stacking up (e.g. 350 36mg D800 photos to process, HDR etc.), and I am contemplating holding off as it will be more fun on the new machine. I converted all 350 of them from raw to Jpeg's the other day on my W7 i5, 2.4, sandy Bridge, HDD machine and it took 55mins. I plan to do again, just to measure real world performance hike. Thanks for listening, though you probably wished you hadn't bothered. :D

Yep, mine's been sitting in Koeln since yesterday evening, having cleared customs. UPS is now just showing 'now in-transit for delivery', so there must be a huge amount being shipped over together before being distributed to the various UPS branches around the country. I'm due for delivery on Wednesday, but in Northern Ireland, so one more flight after London.

I feel your pain. My forecast was 16th-20th, ordered it on 18th June. However my status changed to 'preparing' on 13th, and 16 hours later it shipped. Chances are yours will change status at the end of this week, and it should move very very quickly from then. My projected delivery is 18th.

I know how tough it is to be patient! I woke myself up at 4am after dreaming it had arrived in Northern Ireland, checked the UPS tracking just in case it had, and couldn't get back to sleep. Rest assured however that you aren't alone, I too had to wait until the very last moment before it shipped =) good luck!

Yeh mine...above shipped on Friday .. And it's in London ... And it says syncreon in the apple email... When do we get a courier number you know?
 
Just got a status change this morning on my 2.3/256/16 - ordered 25th June with 24-30/7 estimate, now preparing for shipment :cool:
 
I sure I speak for everyone here when I say - WE don't NEED to have our gift cards merged!!!!

Post them separately or even email them but what they are doing is a huge waste of money, and fuel and bad for the environment having to drive all our MacBooks for Birmingham from London to add a piece of cardboard then have another courier come and bring them back down (if you live in the south).

It's stupid, expensive and bad for the environment. Just email it to us.
