Wow. I didn’t realize there was anyone from the 4th that hadn’t shipped yet! Here’s hoping that yours will get ready to ship today also!

Thanks, I appreciate it... hope you enjoy your new iMac. At least the delivery date still shows 8/19-21.

I had a brief glitch that wouldn't let me add Apple Care to the order, but it just removed it from the cart and the order went through like normal. ??‍♂️

That sucks I had originally ordered the i7 about an hour after it went live but upgraded to the i9 8/5 afternoon so I had to start over. the only thing we have in common is the 5500Xt and the 1TB Ssd I wonder if there is a bottle neck with them. I know it seems a lot of people who ordered the i9 also got the 5700 and there's shipped even some who ordered after us.

Ours must be in the same group because mine has been in Kentucky since 2:20 am. UPS says delivery on Tuesday but I’m hoping it makes it here to Arizona Monday. Fingers crossed!

UPS updated last night and said it would delivery today...still in Kentucky.

It was originally scheduled for Monday once it hit their system.

Darn UPS, getting your hopes up. ? That’s disappointing! I’m sorry!

Apple has always said the 18th for my delivery. UPS said the 17th and then adjusted to the 18th.

I keep checking for any movement.

BTO (i7, 1TB SSD and RX 5700 TX) ordered on the 11th August, the status changed on the 13th August to Preparing To Ship. Shipped on the 14th. The original delivery date has improved by two weeks. Nice one Apple!

Does it matter whether it is an education store order versus regular order

My custom iMac must be enjoying an old world tour of Western Europe. Today alone he visited Shannon, Ireland, took a drive to check out Dublin, then must have gotten bored and hopped on a flight to Cologne, Germany, where he’s currently at.

This thing is going to amass more FF miles in a week than I have in the last six months (thanks, Covid). August 19 can’t come soon enough, I tell you!

We are in the same boat. Education Store order for me though.
