I've seen reports of these shipping before the reported window... HOWEVER, we're in the midst of a Pandemic and holiday season when shipping times tend to slip due to excessive volume.
From what I understand, all custom builds ship from overseas, so that adds customs into the mix.

I ordered a MacMini with 16GB and 512SSD two days from the opening for ordering. No change in a week long range of delivery dates in mid-December (unfortunately). I suppose there is really no accurate way to rely on a delivery date given (as others have said) a “custom” order, popularity, the Pandemic, and the holidays. An added potential obstacle is that I live in a snow belt. Sigh

.Mine was running a few days ahead of schedule, but then it encountered an “exception” and got delayed in Korea for two days. Arrived this morning, one day ahead of the original schedule.
I expect that the holidays will add to the uncertainty, as will the Covid spike.

I ordered a 16GB/2TB model and it was promised Dec. 15-22.
Now, UPS shows “Rescheduled Delivery” and “check back later.” It was supposed to have left Hong Kong’s Chek Lap Kok airport on 12/9 but last night it suddenly showed it left on 12/13. Have no clue what’s going on, but I guess it’s going to be late now. ?
