Are you in the US? I’m curious abt how to track my shipment since it’s going to the Apple Store.
In the Netherlands. And I couldn’t track my order. Only today I got a text from DHL that they had a delivery planned for me today from Apple. The delivery address was the Apple store here in town. From that moment on I could track the delivery with the link that they provided in the text.

Placed a preorder for Midnight through education store on 7/8, decided I wanted to change and cancelled it... but then had to wait a week for my education store discount to clear again. Finally placed my 8gpu/16gb/256gb starlight order today. Doesn't get to me till 8/9-8/17 though....... tragic.

:sigh: so… just now got an update from UPS. They changed the delivery estimate from “today by 5pm” to “🤷”

🤦

Tracking still shows last update from 7/19, 8:50am in Shanghai 😞

My BTO M2 Air (midnight 8/24/1tb) is coming to San Francisco via FedEx. This morning tracking showed it cleared customs and departed Oakland Ca (less then 5 mi from SF) and now it shows it arrived in Memphis TN.... I have to assume FedEx knows it was just across the bridge from SF before sending it across the country only to return it back to SF for delivery Monday July 25 by 10:30am...

8/16/256 Midnight ordered July 8th... still sitting at Processing. Between working off my home NAS and Google Docs (and I don't do video production), I don't use much hard drive space. But it seems the 512gb orders are going out quicker.

Also just traded in my Pixel 4a phone for a 6a -- they gave me $300 for the 4a so net cost was $150, and they're throwing in free Pixel Buds right now. So lots of new toys to play with in the next few weeks!

BTO 8/10/16/512 Midnight. Ordered 5:07 PDT. Original delivery date Aug 9.

Yesterday, card charged and status changed to "your item has shipped". Pickup date updated to July 29.

It's shipping to the Apple store for pickup so I don't think I'll get tracking info, but my expectation is it will be ready for pickup sooner than one week from now.

Hey, a fellow 8/16/256. I originally placed my order on 7/8 for midnight but then cancelled it on 7/18 and reordered space grey the same day. Both orders showed/show an ETA of 8/2 - 8/9 but so far there’s been no activity on my current order beyond “processing.” I was hoping I might get lucky and get my new MBA late next week but that’s looking less and less likely now. Sigh.

Edit: It just changed to preparing to ship! Omg it’s happening! Everybody stay calm!

Waiting for a Apple Store near me to get a base model midnight M2 in. Maybe I’m wrong, but I have a strong feeling they’ll start showing up soon in-stores. I’ve been seeing every color but midnight in stock for the upgraded models

I've ordered 10/24/1tb space gray model. Tracking says it's picked up at Shanghai, but nothing else since 20th. Apple's own email says it will be delivered by 28th, and the original estimate was 25th-Aug 1st. It's with DHL, by the way. I wonder how long it'd take before any movements show up.

Mine went to shipped to store two days ago with a pick up date similar to yours on Jul 28th. Hopefully I randomly get a pick up notification today or tomorrow. 😂

BTO 10/24/1TB Midnight (order in at 8:04 AM EDT 7/8), initial estimate August 9, went from Processing to Shipping to Store overnight on 7/16, with a timeframe shown as "2 to 3 weeks". This morning it has changed to Pickup on July 22. 🎉
Interestingly... only the Apple Store app on iOS is showing today's date. Looking at the web version of my order status, it hasn't changed from "2 to 3 weeks". Still holding for a pickup notification.

Would be disappointed but not surprised if it doesn't come until the weekend or next week.

Shipment progress is a bit messy.
The last China timestamp was on 16 July at 9h41min from Chengdu. After that, no news for 4 days until yesterday when it showed up in the Netherlands (Elst 20 July 12h39min). Since then I've been swamped with progress notifications as the shipment traveled through Europe.
So finally mine landed today. It was a bit unnerving because I waited the whole day yesterday and it never arrived. Shortly before the deadline of 6 PM the status ("out for delivery") changed to "delivery rescheduled due to customer absence"... which was wrong as I was at home all the time of course. So this morning I called their customer service and they got it delivered to me by 10 AM. All's well that ends well. 😁

Mine departed Incheon at 1:30 PM that matches the UPS 5X11 flight to Cologne which left at 1 PM. So probably it will be in Cologne this evening. A shame that UPS doesn't deliver on Saturdays. 🙂
Landed in Cologne. So it will be out for delivery on Monday for sure. My next (and probably last) post in this thread will be with a photo of the damn thing. 😃

Everyone seeing all this movement meanwhile I'm just sitting over here with my 8/16/216 Midnight, ordered at 12:04AM, on 8/2-8/9, stuck in Processing. My card got charged overnight Wednesday which usually means something is happening but its been all quiet since :( Nothing in UPS.
Preparing to ship! Moved to 8/1-8/8. And sorry, meant to say 256 of course :p
