The laptop shipped a few days ago, was in China for a day but now it's been in Narita, Japan for almost 2 days with a pretty weird update: "Your package is in transit. We're updating plans to schedule your delivery. / The package will be forwarded to a UPS facility in the destination city." Has anyone seen this?

Mine just cleared customs in the last 12 hours as well, new ETA is Wednesday, hopefully that sticks!

Mac Mini M1 8/16/2TB delivered at 9am this morning via UPS exactly one month from when I ordered. Originally quotes Feb 9 delivery. Can’t wait to set it up!

Exactly like mine, Mac Mini M1 16GB/2TB ordered on 12/12/20, arrived on 01/12/21, so one month later. Do yourself a favor by installing first an admin account, different in name from your account that you plan to transfer from another computer to avoid a naming conflict. :cool:

I set it up as new. I’ve had 13 years of crap built up over the years.

We have the same machine, config and status changes. A fellow on the same boat!
Welp, mine is still in HK, since Jan 6th. Unfortunately, it is still waiting for a Philippine govt permit (to import I guess). i guess the others on that same boat already received theirs :)

I ordered a Mini on Sunday with added RAM/SSD. Order was showing 3rd-10th Feb. I just noticed though that my credit card has been charged today for the full amount (not just a holding fee) - does this maybe suggest I could get a pleasant surprise and quicker delivery? I know from iPhone orders that credit card charging is usually synonymous with dispatch?? Thanks.

On Jan. 3 I ordered a MBA with 7c/256GB/16GB in Space Grey with a delivery date of Feb 3 - 10th. The delivery estimate shifted to Feb 2 - 9th about a week and a half ago, and then last Saturday the 16th my card was charged which is hopefully a good sign for shipping soon. Can't wait.

Got something like this. Ordered on the 13th, arrived in the United States a few days later and was supposed to be delivered on the 22nd, but to my surprise it will arrive today on the 19th.
