So.... with 512
The estimated date is respected or not?
yes I think, I've order mine (I5 / 580 / 512 SSD) the 1st July , estimated delivery between 1-8 august and my credit card was charge today morning, so I think I'll have soon the prepare for shipment ;)
 
iMac 4.2, 512gb ssd, 8gb ram, ETA Aug 8-11.

ordered 7.24.2017

any chance it ships earlier?

Card charged for me as well.

Ordered July 4th (i7/580/512 GB), also had estimate of August 1-8

I ordered the evening of July 3rd (i5/580/512GB) and have had an estimate of 7/27-8/3 all along. No charge to my card so far today.

Mine is a friends and family discounted order...I wonder if that somehow takes a backseat to normal online store orders?
 
I ordered my i7 512SSD on July 12th and my card was charged July 19th with a statement that my order was ready for shipment. Order still in progress and no shipment info, but my credit card balance is lower :(
 
1TB SSD / 27" 580 8GB / 4.2GHz / 8GB (to be self ungraded via Crucial 2x 16GB)
Ordered 7/25 with ship window of 8/4

That's earlier than me though I ordered earlier that you. My card is charged but status remains order in progress.
 
Reordered my 512ssd on 7/12
Shipping projected 7/28-8/4
Status has not changed at all and is still "Order in Progress"

If I had to guess based on everyone else's 512ssd shipping times, it probably wont ship until closer to 8/4 :/
 
My husband ordered my iMac late Sunday evening (July 16, 2017 EDT) and as of this morning it is preparing to ship. :) Expected date next Wed-Friday for delivery, but hoping it actually goes out today. Guess I should order my extra memory soon.

  • 4.2GHZ QC I7, TB UP TO 4.5GHZ
  • 8GB 2400MHZ DDR4 - 2X4GB
  • 1TB FLASH STORAGE
  • AMD RADEON PRO 580 W/8GB VRAM
  • Apple Magic Mouse 2
  • MAGIC KYBD NUM KEYPAD

Mine came today.
 
I now have a pending charge on my credit card and my order has changed to preparing for shipment. Still have the same delivery dates of 7/27-8/3 though.

All orders--discounted or otherwise--are processed as and when they get in (a friend of mine works for Apple).

Based on other threads, the relatively long delivery window you are having probably has more to do with the supply of the 512GB SSDs (or rather the lack thereof). Hang tight!
 
Mine is now preparing for shipment two full days after card was charged. Now waiting for it to ship so I can track it (and finally get it).

i7, 580, 512 GB, ordered July 4th
[doublepost=1501145898][/doublepost]Just shipped! Scheduled to arrive July 31, shipping from Shanghai with a destination of Sweden. (Standard shipping, could not chose express for some reason, although that's pretty darn fast from China to Sweden anyways)

Congrats! You getting sooner than me. Enjoy.

Thanks, it has been a long wait! Hope yours arrives soon as well. :)

Apple gave me an estimated delivery date of August 4, but UPS is telling me July 31, and given that Apple tends to be conservative and that UPS should have a pretty good idea about their delivery times I trust UPS more. Also have 32 GB additional RAM incoming, and will add an external SSD to compensate for only having 512 internal. It's going to be a good week next week
 
Woke up this morning to the shipment notification. Apple says it arrives by Aug 3rd but UPS is showing a date of Aug 1st with it coming from Shanghai. :)

I ordered my iMac today (I7, 580, 8GB, 3TB Fusion, MTP2 and MK w/#pad) and it's set to be here between 8/5-8//9) I'm really hoping it comes on the 4th or the 5th.

Edit 7/29: card was authorized this morning around 4am ET. No change on order status at this point.

That was quick. I guess it's a standard configuration and if I understand correctly it was not ordered through Apple? I could only dream about those shipping times with my 512 GB SSD... :D

Finally there is a status update to "Preparing to Ship". Can't wait to get my hands on it. My very first iMac. :)

Things went quickly from preparing to ship to actually shipping for me. It was export scanned a few hours ago so my guess is that it's currently on a plane and will arrive somewhere in Europe during the night or early morning.
