What was your original delivery date and what is showing now?
Ordered on Tuesday, out for delivery today. I went with the mid spec iMac from theEDUstore. Staggering value especially as it includes a 4 year warranty.

It is still showing the original delivery date - Arrives 02/09/2020 - 09/09/2020. It will be delivered from China as I am in New Zealand.
Mine as well, then followed by France and currently UK.Mine has gone from Ireland to Germany. It’s taking the tour of Europe I’ve always wanted. ? But it’s going the wrong way. It’s now further away from Phoenix!
Does anyone have a BTO from 4 Aug that’s still in the processing stage? My delivery date is 19-21 Aug.
My BTO iMac was pending on my credit card since 8/5 when I ordered it. Now pending order has disappeared and it’s still not charged..... not sure what that means.... order still says processing and the site says “We have everything necessary to complete your order. We’ll update your delivery date when your order is preparing to ship.” So hopefully all is still on track.

Ok cool, that makes me feel a little better. My BTO was i7 + 5500XT + 16GB + 1TB + 10G
did you get it yet? I work in audio production and am curious abouthow loud the fans will be when using logic and cubase. I usually run lots and lots of plugins !
anyone here upgrade from a mac running High Sierra to the new Mac with that, one or two year newer OS at this point? Just wondering how it went if you did a data transfer from mac to mac. My 2011 still has iTunes as one app instead of broken out into multiple apps like it is with the OSs. Stuff like that. Just wondering if there was something I needed to watch out for moving data from such an old computer to my soon to be delivered 2020 iMac.
As an aside, Im hesitant to do what some people do and "start fresh", as Im concerned Ill forget something on my old computer or move something wrong if I do it all manually.

Hello, beautiful.
Ordered August 4 (BTO), Delivered August 13.

Custom order placed August 4, credit card charged August 8, item still at at Processing. They for some reason attempted to charge (over-authorize as Apple called it) my credit card again on August 11 which Amex declined for my protection. Payments team corrected the issue the next day and order details goes back to Processing. This morning August 13 I get notification it's shipped. UPS tracking number assigned.
I think you're the first person I've seen here with a 10 core being delivered - Let us know once you've got it up and running how it's performing! Enjoy!
Mine just hit “preparing to ship” (ordered on the 6th)
That's great news! Just want to confirm, you added 10-gigabit ethernet right? Your post on the previous page said gigabit not 10 gigabit so I just want to make sure. Thanks again!
Mine just hit "preparing to ship" too! i7 + 5500XT + 8GB + 2TB + 10G, ordered on August 4.
