Ordered the same configuration, have the same delivery dates but no card charge though. Amsterdam here. Really hoping it means they’re shipping much faster then first week of August. Keep us posted!
Card just got charged (or at least the €0 hold was turned into full amount reservation) 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 Status still “being processed” and dates Aug 1-8.

Status changes to Shipped. Worried a bit about the package because I provided wrong phone number and I don’t have access to UPS MyChoice.
 
Anyone with a 24GB configuration that has had any progress? My card was charged days ago but according to Apple store nothing is really happening and it isn’t preparing to ship or anything.
Nothing yet, my midnight 24GB still in 'Processing' status and i checked cc this morning, no pending or posted charges yet.
 
Can you create a UPS MyChoice account?
I can’t, an error pops up. Called the UPS Customer service, talked with them for nearly 30 minutes and they couldn’t resolve this. I hope that if I give them a call they can manually do the features of the MyChoice account.

Is this a hopeful sign??? 487C0778-3BB1-4FE5-A200-6396FFA85A11.png
 
Got my shipping info this morning - still set for tomorrow. It actually shipped a few days ago from Asia.
Doesn't say it will require signature - live in an apartment building - mail delivered to a mail room. But at least it is coming

I received my order confirmation email 4 minutes after ordering opened on July 8.
Midnight color
M2 chip with 8‑core CPU
8GB unified memory
512GB SSD storage
Original ship date July 18-25. This morning it changed to July 26-Aug 2. 😓
 
Sydney Australia

Just got notification that my order has been shipped! Original delivery date 18 July 2022.

It's being delivered by StarTrack Premium with ETA tomorrow. So the Apple estimate was wrong??
I think Apple sandbags the delivery dates a bit. Better to be early than late.

At least that's been my experience. Almost always at the beginning of the promised window or earlier than that.

I chose store pick up for my BTO as I have had missed deliveries and deliveries that “got lost”. But I am regretting that a bit now. I know my apple store now has it because althought the status is still listed as “shipping to store”, I received my emailed gift card this morning. I figure apple store has to stagger pick ups to prevent overwhelming the employees, but I wish my pick up date at least would move up from 7/22 to earlier next week. So hard to be patient.
 
Early July 8th order to US, 10core/16GB/512GB/67W Starlight MBA, both Apple and UPS say shipped now, UPS says Monday July 18th delivery, Apple indicates arrives 7/21. Original promises were 7/21+, then 7/22+. UPS (and Fedex) have routinely been slipping on delivery date promises this year. Looks like I will get it sometime next week.

Nope, still 'processing' and I ordered within a few minutes of opening.
 
For what it's worth, mine did a similar thing. Confirmation email at 7:02, Starlight 8-core, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD. Original email said 7/20-7/22. Then when it changed to Preparing to Ship, the date said 7/22-7/26. I got the Shipped email this morning which said 7/21. UPS Tracking says delivery on 7/18. Who knows when it'll actually show up! :)

That sucks. To know it's at the store and you can't go grab it must be frustrating.

My credit card was just charged so maybe your experience will be mine also. I hope so! Thanks!
