this is hubby's configuration. still processing. hold on apple card since monday.

i'm hoping that it's a common configuration and they have a pallet or pallets of them here in the states and they'll actually ship tonight and he'll get it tomorrow after all! i've seen others getting their iMacs scheduled for later than 24 may getting theirs tomorrow.... here's hoping!

Mine is still hanging out in Louisville, hoping that it jumps on the overnight flight to Southern California. Would make for an easy delivery in the morning. Interestingly, UPS e-mailed telling me that it would be delivered tomorrow.

What else could they do? It is simply not possible or reasonable for them to supply everyone with a pre-order first, because there may be many weeks or even months for some products before they would be in the stores.

I agree. I live over 130 miles from the nearest Apple Store and 50 from a Best Buy. But regardless of the trip, I wouldn't want to have to go stand in line at the store or wait for someone to help me or worst of all, discover that the store doesn't have the color, configuration I want. By Pre-ordering, I get exactly what I want and it's delivered to my front door. And as fun as it is to track my order and anticipate the arrival, I know that receiving it on the first possible day will not ruin my life.

Left Memphis via FedEx at 4:00pm for Ohio!
Just to note that the notice from Apple that it had moved from processing to shipped occurred on the 15th and delivery will be the 21st. I am also getting 2 ATV's tomorrow via UPS that were not shown as "shipped" until yesterday. Apparently they were part of the stash that is in the states. I am really impressed with the logistics of getting this many products out with the multiple configurations, colors, trackpad, mouse, etc. from China to the US and to our doorsteps in such a short time. And now.......Christmas is tomorrow for many of us!

I checked with them, the payment went through initially and then went away (like a lot of people described). Everything was fine on the end of the credit card company, and I also have it set up so they will text/call me if they suspect fraud so I can approve and never heard anything there either. I checked with Apple just yesterday and they said everything was fine with my order and it should ship anytime, then today I check and see it canceled.

THAT'S CRAZY. My order went into verification too which delayed the shipping date so I called and spoke with a manager who escalated to the verifications team. Maybe reach out to the management team, she gave me this for the management team (866-254-8313). Mine shipped 2 days after speaking with them.

Just had dispatch notice for 1 of my Macs, originally was scheduled for 28 May - 4 Jun. is coming on Monday! So a week early. The one scheduled for 21 - 27 May is still preparing to ship, so maybe here tomorrow - It's express delivery not standard delivery.

I wonder why some were automatically done as standard shipping and others as express delivery?

Unfortunately mine was cancelled before I could do anything about it. The original person I spoke with said no issues and it would ship soon, and with this being my first apple preorder I went with it. then it was cancelled next day and nothing could be done at that point other than reorder and get in the back of the line. So went and ordered with B&H and hoping I get lucky there since they’re anticipating some 5/31.
