Order status has changed from 'Arriving 25th Nov' to 'Arriving Soon' 😅

No changes on the DHL tracking number yet tho...

Also the Apple Store order page says to 'use the "Track Shipment" link for more information' but there isn't a link anywhere that I can see? 😅

This is the website store order page at the moment (now saying tracking info will be available shortly):

And this was last night with the 'use tracking link' when there wasn't one! 😅

I know there is normally radio silence with DHL - but just annoying since I get stuff from them all the time from Korean and Japan in ~2 days!

Edit: Idk how to make images smaller 💀

24h+ of PFS for me and when I try using my order number / mobile number in DHL / UPS I'm getting nothing.

Today's a national holiday in Japan so the local logistics company will not be moving stuff so all I can assume is it's goign to ship from a local warehouse tomorrow ?

I think we may have a similar issue. I do not have a tracking link either and mine was picked up in China on Friday with now no update. I did however get a text with my tracking link

Going to be hard to know how it all works locally in Japan. You can image the largest logistics company still have operations working.

As you say, you’re not going to get much more tracking info until it’s in the UK.. so probably on Wednesday now if it’s due Thursday.

It would appear not to be the case actually.

I was looking at in stock orders for today and they have a delivery date of Thursday eg they will be processed tomorrow. Same as on weekends - Any orders after 3pm on Saturday get delivered on Tuesday.

I'm in the exact same boat as you. DHL "November, 19 2021 17:31 Local time | Shipment picked up (SHANGHAI - CHINA MAINLAND)" along with a text message including tracking number and nothing since. It is pretty common not to see any updates till the shipment is scanned in the UK.

Apple states the item will arrive Fri Nov 26th. I expect to see an update on the 25th. (order placed 29th October)

Today’s the day that the credit card payment for the beast that is the 16inch M1Max.

Even with that Costco discount, I feel the shudder as it hits the bank account like a tremor measured at the upper reaches of the MacRichter scale …

… all enhanced by ProMotion and improved stereo reproduction ;)

Separate questions from my angst about beingn stuck on PFS.

I'm looking to buy
- A screen shield
- A keybard cover
- A clamshell hard case

I've had Moshi stuff for my past 2 notebooks (and reused when I've upraded) but I need to buy new now.

Any recommendations from the wisdom of the crowd ?

Haha feels like it!

Went from a 14” Max 32gb/1TB in space gray

To

14” Pro 10/16 16gb/1TB in silver

To finally

14” Pro 8/14 32gb/1TB in silver

Every review I watched from placing my order on day of release showed me I’d never scratch the surface with a max. Then all the comparisons of the binned 8/14 compared to the 10/16 only showed a small difference in performance so decided to change again and bump up the ram.

Plus the silver colour looked soo good when I saw it in store!
