Any way of speeding up order ?

Just a little question about the speed of order!
My laptop is currently in its 7th working day, currently in the pre-production stage.
Since I am a impatient person I was wondering if there is any way of speeding up the process ?

Also, how long do you guys estimate it will take to arrive from today ?

Ok, so 5 day fast track 69 pound. Would you say it is worth it? How long do you reckon it will take for my laptop to arrive if I dont fast track ?

Probably not much longer than the 5 days anyway at this point I'd guess, though that is entirely a guess.

It says '5 working day dispatch', does that mean it will take 5 days from today? Or will it be sooner since my order is currently in its 7th working day ?

It would be 5 working days from tomorrow (since today is over as a working day now), though sometimes the fast tracks will be faster than their advertised times.

Once it goes into building it should all go quite fast. Pre-production is the worst don't worry.

Mine went into building on 9th working day and arrived at my house on 13th working day.

Thanks mate.

Yeah, just as well I didnt pay that 70 pound! Got an email today saying that it is now awaiting dispatch and that it will probably be dispatched today! Probably get it some time next week I am guessing ?

That's strange, they missed out the building, testing and quality control completely?! :s Maybe they just forgot to update the status.

You'll probably get it on Monday :) I got lots of texts and emails about when mine would be coming!

No no, I got 3 emails today.

1 - Stated it had been built
2- Stated it had entered testing
3 - Awaiting dispatch!

All happened today which is pretty good!

Hello! I am also an impatient person. I placed order on the Thursday, switched to Fast Track 3-Day dispatch on Friday morning, and it arrived here Tuesday 11.30am :)

Would there be any way to change it so I get it tomorrow ?? Would be ideal since I work during the week!
