I’m just amazed that you got your MBA so quickly! What specs did you order? I’m still waiting on the two base model M1 MBAs that I ordered on 11/30. They are still back ordered.
I got the 16GB model with the 512GB SSD. It's now sold out. lol. Glad I moved when I did on it. I am stunned that they still haven't gotten you the base model. How are they prioritizing the shipment of these? It does not seem like first come, first serve.

Just spoke to b&h about my air m1 base model order (ordered on cyber Monday). They said they are receiving a shipment of 300 on January 20, but they have over 1700 orders. Said they can’t see my place on line (also said that now after holidays they should be getting more regular updates on times).

Adorama has several M1 MacBook Air CTO configurations in stock and ready to ship. When I called about by Cyber Monday order, they said that it has shipped, but I received bad tracking information that they will re-send.

I ordered a MBP 16/512 on Cyber Monday. Called B&H customer service yesterday and was told they have an order due on January 25 that I should get allocated out of, but that places my actual ETD as first week of Feb.

Same thing happened with me when I received shipping info from Adoroma, the email said UPS is shipping but the actual tracking number belonged to DHL.

Thanks. I just checked my tracking number on DHL. It looks like it made it to Erlanger, KY. Hopefully that means it arrives soon.

Update: It actually arrived late last night! I just got a text from the doorman.

I picked up a 16/256 on B&H, wanted 16/512, but I’ll be using some external SSD’s for more space, so not terribly concerned.

I ordered a base M1 Air on Nov. 30 2020. So far all I can see is back ordered. I tried a chat with B&H today and they could not give me any delivery information. I'll give it until the 30th and if it is still not in stock I'll cancel and order from Apple.

FYI Adorama has some 16GB/1TB minis in stock. Can also get $80 off using APINSIDER too, and no tax depending where you live. :)

Called B&H today and my M1 Air 7-core/16gb/512gb that I ordered on Cyber Monday will be shipping in the next couple of days. The status of my order on B&H's website is now "Order in Progress".

B&H just charged my credit card for the 16/512 MBP I ordered on Cyber Monday; also now showing "Order in Progress." Maybe they'll beat their estimate of February?

After 1 day shy of 2 months, my order has shipped. Back orders have been released, hopefully those with higher spec’d machines will be receiving good updates soon.

I think so too. at least there should be an ETA and not open-ended..
I would have cancelled that order and bought elsewhere. More than likely, B&H made more orders than they can rightfully fill, as they probably don't get as big allotments as the big box chain stores. Even a BTO shouldn't take that long, in my opinion. Then again, this is during a pandemic so, that may play a role as well.

Weird question, anyone got their B&H delivery on Monday?
I ordered yesterday and expected delivery is Monday
Thing is, I have a flight early morning on Monday!
I just need to know if it gets delivered to my city like late night or something that I would be able to pick it up?
