I bought my Mac Mini on Amazon.com and chose free shipping, it took 1 week and a half for it to be delivered to me.
 
hmmm.. wondering if i'm impatient enough to pay the $17 to get it sooner (like end of this week)
 
The RAM is already in the 'shipping soon' stage.. no such luck for the MINI :(
 
I ordered my mini last friday, should be here tomorrow according to FedEx.
Although I still have to upgrade RAM+HD.
 
ahh.. I went with Amazon to save on the sales tax.. Otherwise it would have been a cool 8.75% on top of $600 :(
 
I bought mine from Apple BTO 2.23GHz 2GB RAM (I like my RAM covered by warranty, TYVM) and had it within a week of ordering it. Shipping was free, and although tax wasn't, the student discount effectively canceled it out.
Amazon's Super Saver Shipping on average takes anywhere from a week to ten business days for me. Just got a year's subscription to MobileMe with free shipping and it arrived in 8 days.
 
super saver shipping is the slowest they offer. It's not only slow shipping, they take their time to get it ready to ship too. Easily a week and a half from order to receive.
 
My girlfriends mini was like 800$ CDN at the local best buy. Being Canadian sucks some times. Oh well, at least we have free health care. :p

From my understanding - super saver utilized pack mules. :rolleyes:

I've always been impressed with Apple's shipping - I always pick ground and it arrives within 2-3 business days.

But the no tax with Amazon is very appealing! :D
 
The no sales tax was very appealing.. especially for a California resident..
 
Man, mine just arrived in the county near me. It's 8:50PM, i dont think they're going to make the short drive to my house at this point.
 
great buy! I love amazon with prime, better than any retail store ever.

I got mines today, but I still have to wait on my keyboard & mouse (I had my dad ship them instead of paying $100). I wish I could use my MacBooks keyboard & trackpad for the time being.

For the love of computers, I hope it can watch flash videos well enough for you. :D Good luck!
