Why does it take 8+ days for a MacBook Pro to ship but their free beats only takes 2?

I never understood this, and i really don't care a beep about those beats... I’ve noticed its the same pattern with not only laptop, but their iPads and iPhones. They take a week or more while their gadgets arrive right away.

There's probably a large warehouse full of those Beats headphones in most countries. On the other hand, the new Macbook Pro has to fly here from China, especially the BTOs which are not stocked.

The Beats aren’t brand new products

The Beats are not new stuff and they've been sitting in a warehouse near you for quite some time. The MacBook Pros are brand new.

My beats came from PA. CTO MBP from China (correction, still in China waiting to be cleared 5 days after ordering).

I also ordered an adapter as well as the Beats so just had mine grouped into one delivery......

Correction to correction. Finally on UPS88 heading to AK. It might make delivery in 6 days total.

When i did that it increased the delivery time by 1 day.. so i quickly undid it
