My order of new iMac

We are fellow users and Apple is not here. We cannot explain changes in order delivery times, nor does Apple have control over all aspects of the shipping cycle. There may or may not be issues that even involve COVID factors, such as intense order demand for a new product.

I suggest you contact Apple directly from your order confirmation email to determine if the shipping delay can be explained.

Strange, I had the exact same delivery promise and mine came early, and I know of at least one other person who got theirs early, too.

This is a pretty popular item and it is not surprising that Apple might be caught flat-footed by a hiccup in the supply chain.

I am curious: Apple usually only does an Authorization for the card you want to use immediately, but they do not actually bill you until the item is shipped. Are you saying you paid in full immediately?

I ordered the new imac on June 13, in the educational store, the amount was not charged but is PENDING. There is a hold on the account for said amount, and the hold will remain in effect until the item is shipped, at which point Apple will fully run the transaction with the financial institution. Hope that helps on that point.

Thank you, I did not know that.

As other users here and not being employed by Apple, we still cannot help you get an answer here. We have no insight into Apple's manufacturing and shipping processes.

Hello, have you received your iMac? I have the same situation here.

Hi, thank you so much for your reply. But did you mean 26/7? Anyway its good to know you get yours :)

Thank you so much! Stay healthy and have all the fun with your iMac :D
