Question about Apple's 2 day shipping

[wako]

Does it actually come in TWO DAYS? My macbook is being sent by this method but it is coming from CHINA. Two days? I'm really doubting it. On the fedex website, it doesnt even give me a approximate delievery date.

On my order detail page, it says the method is two days, but between the delievery and the shipping date, it is in transit for SEVEN DAYS? What is the point of the 2 day shipping?

I am wondering the exact same thing, why did I pay the extra money???

Well I just called Apple to ask them what the hell is going on. They said despite the system coming from China, it will still be at my house within 2-3 days. I somehow doubt his claims because I ordered things from Lik-Sang before which is based in Hong Kong, and it took a week despite it being Air mail express, USPS though...

Mine came in two days from China. I am located just north of Chicago.

I paid for 2-3 shipping (fastest available) on my iMac last friday and it still hasn't come. I haven't even got shipment notification in my email from Apple yet! My iPod got here monday, and the printer today, but where's my friggin iMac?! I ordered them all together!

When I purchased my intel imac in january, I purchased the 2-3 days shipping and it took 4 days. It shipped from china.
