This is fantastic news, considering that yours is a BTO model with 16 GB of RAM.
Can I ask when did you order it?
Got a tip for us?

Can I ask when did you order it?
Mine still says "processing" and the charge to my Apple Card is still pending. 16GB RAM with 512GB HD
I would say within half an hour of the Apple store coming online post keynote
I was always under the impression that when the order either get's to "Preparing to Ship" or "Shipping" the credit card is charged (not certain which one). My Apple Card has a "pending" charge equal to the NJ Sales Tax since the preorder on Monday night.
Mine just got moved up a week. Hopefully it will happen again.
The amount on my credit card has been debited, I should receive it on November 14-16, do you think I could have nice surprises and receive it earlier having taken the money today?
Well my Apple Card still has the same pending charge from Monday but my status went from Processing to Preparing to Ship (still with the Tuesday 11/7 delivery).
Man, I'm almost jealous of you all. When I made the jump from my 2014 iMac 5K to the M1 iMac I was just sitting there messing around with it for hours, just to experience how bloody fast it felt. I DO miss the screen size a bit, but other than that it's a massive step up in every way.
Yes, I also hope to overcome the transition from 27" to 24" as best as possible. It would have also been nice to be able to choose the M3 Pro processor, but coming from a 2012 iMac, the leap in power is huge, especially thanks to the media engines.
Ordered a Yellow 1GB/1TB and a nifty Color Coordinated USB Hub that supports "A","C", and Cards.It also supports a built in NvME 2TB ssd.
Ordered a green M3, 24/512, to replace my mid-2010 i5. Delivery three weeks out.

My iMac is shipped now, I will receive it on November 8th morning! Very happy, I see no problem. Convinced that if I had ordered it a few hours earlier, I would have received it already on November 7th. It was scheduled for November 14-16, big Apple, don't mess with me, don't let me down!
Ordered an iMac (silver) with 24GB RAM and 1 TB SSD on November 1st.
It was scheduled for November 14-16.
But now it turned to „preparing to ship“.
Maybe I'll get my iMac next week?

Register with UPS, if that is the courier you will receive it with, and you will see more information, such as the possible delivery date. Don't look at the Apple website anymore, everything is now in the hands of the courier, UPS for me.Ordered an iMac (silver) with 24GB RAM and 1 TB SSD on November 1st.

Mine still hasn’t shipped but I remember with my iPhone 5, it didn’t “ship” until it was out for delivery
You can always call UPS and have them keep the package at your local UPS depot for you to pick up.
This is the information I get from the UPS website:
Estimated delivery:
The delivery date will be provided as soon as possible.
A few hours ago the UPS website said that the iMac would arrive on November 8th.
Since the status "Your package is in transit" - no estimated delivery date is given.
And the Apple Store website says: "Coming soon" - also no delivery date.
Is everything ok???

Mine is now prepared for shipment. November 22-30. Maybe I’ll get lucky and it will ship sometime soon. Ordered around 6:00 pm on October 31.

Fascinating that mine still says Preparing for Shipment but also says Delivery for Tomorrow (Tuesday) and I would assume it is still somewhere in China. This should be interesting. Hopefully there will be an update by the time I get up as I took off on Tuesday to wait for the delivery.
