An excellent point. Seems like a little BAIT and SWITCH type tactic by Amazon...

Reading the Apple Support forums, people are getting the black MacBooks now from Amazon even when they are quoted a July shipping date. Also, in the MB 1.83 Ghz Amazon forum, someone mentioned that he got his shipped and delivered earlier this month even when quoted a late shipping date.So I think that Amazon is just being conservative as Apple is notorious for not having enough supply for their products. I think Amazon is just trying to cover their butts in case Apple can't meet demand and doesn't allocate enough shipments to Amazon.

Hmm, I ordered mine with the free shipping and still got a good date. Maybe you(Hiro) changing the shipping and the earlier ship date was just a coincidence...

I ordered with free shipping option on May 17th, then the estimate delivery date was end of July.This date was not changed at all.Then I changed my shipping option to the standard shipping on May 31th, then it shipped today, June 1st. It will be delivered tomorrow. (^^)v

I ordered my white Macbook (2.0 GHz, Superdrive) today(June 1st). My estimated ship date is June 7th. Thats better than I had hoped.
1547925
As I mentioned earlier, I ordered my white 2.0 GHz/Superdrive MB on June 1 and received an estimated ship date of June 7th with the free supersaver shipping. I just checked my email and Amazon shipped it today, June 2nd. Thank you Amazon.

I am also still waiting for any kind of information from Amazon. It's quite frustrating! Newegg.com, however is showing an ETA of 11/21. I'm hoping that holds true for Amazon as well.

Looks like we are all recieveing conflicting information from the Amazon reps... I was told that it should be shipping tonight, with a delivery date of tomorrow... I guess we will see. If I had known that there was going to be extra processing time I would have just gone with Newegg!

I am in the same boat. I ordered this about a month ago and I just got an e-mail showing that the delivery is pushed back another 1-2 weeks. I'm wondering if Amazon really does have them at all.

Jimmy, I would not order this thing. Considering response from GiJoy it sounds like you would be dissappointed. I ordered it on Feb. 15, 2014 and despite telling Amazon 3 times that I haven't received it, I still have not received it. Do you and others think someone at Amazon or shipper may be asleep at the switch????? This is especially disturbing to me, since one of these messages was included with a message giving them glowing praise that they chose to publish. Do you think that their customer service has shrunk to the level or Sears and other now defunct big box stores????? LOL, George Jimmy, I would not order this thing.

Purchased mine on January 25th and I'm still waiting in the backorder queue, if that gives you any indication. I'll let you know when mine shows up, as it might give you an idea about yours. Regardless, I think waiting 4 weeks or so for Amazon to restock is well worth paying the MSRP instead of the 20% to 40% markup other online retailers are charging, including some of Amazon's own 3rd party sellers. I don't fault them for charging it though. If consumers are willing to pay the inflated prices then there's no reason a business shouldn't capitalize on it. I'm just saying I won't. waiting 30 days or so for delivery is worth $200 or more in my pocket. End of rant. ;o) Purchased mine on January 25th and I'm still waiting in the backorder queue, if that gives you any indication.

LOL, just as I read this, I received an e-mail not more than three minutes ago from Amazon.Delivery date of 29 November.Edit: delivered yesterday.

Funny you said that. I just received my exchange which was scheduled for today (I got the go ahead on the 28th, shipped the 29th), and Amazon forgot to tell Eagle to pick up the exchanged set too. At first they weren't sure if they can take it without amazon authorization, then after calling the main office, the guy took it. This time there was only 1 guy who came to dropoff/pickup even though I asked if they were gonna have 2 guys when I scheduled and they told me "yes". The guy still waited until I tested everything then left.

I preordered this from Amazon when it became available, and got an e-mail yesterday saying that the expected delivery date was the 13th. Since I picked overnight shipping, I take that to mean that they expect to ship my order by Monday, but obviously can't confirm that this is going to happen.Edit: Like those below, got the order update the day after it should have shipped.

I agree. I too pre-ordered in early Aug and I also received the moved up email only to find out it was later than stated. As long as I get mine in time for Christmas I don't care, but at this point I am a little worried that I'll even get it by then. I hope that Amazon takes the lessons learned from this and other hot pre-orders like the Wii Fit to heart and improve on their service level standards. **Update** I was checking my account for another reason and I see now where I should be getting mine by the 24th of this month. Odd. But good news for me, I hope it actually ships then.

Ordered on the 10th. Expected to deliver on the 13th. Watching amazon for a status update. Would not be suprised if it got switched to backordered.Update: Amazon has updated the delivery date to the 16th today (This is on one-day shiping). Let the customer know the day it's expected to be delivered that it'll be delayed is quite dumb. Stay classy Amazon

I ordered one on Nov.30..I got a similar story.I`m not really in any hurry.Yea,I`d like it sooner,but no big deal.Amazon has worked out well for other purchases.I`m just hoping it works out OK.It`s always tough when you have to wait. Update: I got the same story as Steve. Would have been nice,but I`ll pick out something else.

FOUL, FOUL Foul....I ordered mine on October 19, and am still waiting for it to ship...Brooke, as soon as you get your package please forward it to me. Amazon made a mistake. That one is MINE, MINE , MINE......Sorry. Just had to vent.

My experience in the past is Amazon aims for you to get the device the day its available to the public. My preorders in the past have arrived on the listed "available on" date. I'd try contacting Amazon directly though- it seems to mildly vary from product-to-product as to when preorders are actually received by the buyer.

I had the same results when I sent them email; that's why I decided to call them. As far as lying, if I don't get my order in another week, I'll know who did the lying/misinforming. Amazon should realize they have alot of competition and I'm willing to pay a couple extra dollars for better service than this. I'm supposed to get my order by the 17th. I'll drop a line here to let you know what happen, if you like.

Well just found out my estimated delivery date would be June 6th. They tried to tell me "when something is shown as temporarily out of stock"... um yeah, IT NEVER ONCE SHOWED THAT! This has truly been a pathetic experience with amazon. I am incredibly disappointed.

FYI - I preordered mine from Apple in the middle of Jan and just received it this week (2/25). So it isn't just Amazon - I have read posts that say some Apple stores have them - but I think that might be false.
