Had a rough time with the empty bag issue…so I tried a different colour and it worked - but ordered my original preference in the end - Yellow / 16gb Ram / 1TB - finally managed to cancel the Green one (and delivery estimate still 21-31 May)

UGH..... since i'm concerned about the pink being peach..... i also ordered a blue 16/2 TB.

it's scheduled for 1-8 jun. if i get the pink and like it... i should still have time to cancel the blue. if i hate the pink.... i'm not stuck waiting weeks (months?) to get a blue by that time.....

Safari was not showing the order button so I needed to switch to Chrome. I ordered the blue one with 16GB / 1TB SSD and got the 27 May - 4th June timeframe.

I can just pop in a external hard drive but 256 should be enough for me
i thought about that.... and contemplated that when considering the previous versions that i never bit on. i already have several externals for back ups.

so you pretty much put EVERYTHING except the OS and apps on externals?

so maybe it is the 2 TB causing a longer delay since with 1 TB you still got 27 - 4. well the 1-8 for 2 TB actually works for me since it's only a back up order/color. i'm REALLY hoping i love the pink and just cancel the blue 2TB.

In Norway yellow, orange and purple were 3-9 June instantly. All the colours also available in the lowest config are still available 21 may so it doesn't look like its based on demand. Does anyone else have this?

Ordered yellow 8/512, now considering switching to a different colour

I also go through the Education Store and maybe that slowed it down, and I had to restart my order due to some Apple Pay glitch (my own fault).
ya.... i may have held up hubby's blue by a few days by double checking the order... i swear it had the 21-27 when i put it in the cart... but then i wanted to be super sure i ordered the correct configurations and took the time to double check and voila... his is a little later now....
