[Mike Ca]

My order status now says shipped and I have a tracking number.

Order number 528xx, confirmation email at 9:32 PM PST on 3/1, body only.

[nvsravank]

naterz, body only or Kit?

[prayharder]

Order 536xx body only just shipped out w/ tracking number!

[Higs42]

Order 586XX for kit is shipping today.

[FocalFury]

57xxx for kit has been shipped to Canada w/ tracking #. Seems like there were far fewer kit orders.

[Sinsear]

OP here, order 528xx body-only shipped. They must've received 1000+ inventory on the first shipment. Impressive indeed.

[aluckyshot]

Could be awhile at 1000 units a pop for me.  618XX on 3/2 at 1:33 pm CST. Body only.

Same here.. at 636xx on 3/2 at 3:43 pm CST.   I don't really NEED it until April 3rd.  Hoping and praying!...body only

Just get it from somewhere else.

My B&H preorder number was XXXX812XXX, placed on the 7th... god knows how many batches down I would've been.  Cancelled and ordered from Profeel and it should be in my hands by Monday.

A bit confused why so many are sticking to their BH preorder so fervently, and bemoaning the wait ahead of them.  Smaller shops all over the place have them in stock, ready to ship (most had them ready to roll apparently before B&H even received their first shipment which boggles the mind).   As stated before though, this is not B&H's fault - can you imagine the heart palpitations their executives are having?

Chatted with B&H. #574xx body only might be fulfilled on next shipment which is expected on April 2.

I'd like to but I personally need the Bill Me Later option.  If someone else has extra bodies in stock with that option so I can have it by 4/3, I'd definitely look that direction.

I was 660XX on 3/2 at B&H. Got scared this morning waiting for that damn status to change to "Shipped," so I called every camera store in NYC. After calling about 7 different places, K&M in Chinatown told me they had a couple in the back, but were reserved for pre-orders. Then I begged. And they said they felt bad for me and would give me one. They also have D800s for those that are interested/in the NYC area.

I was close then - I was 544xx (you added an extra x!) body only, and mine is in this batch. Nice that they've said their next batch is due on a certain date. Sucks that that's in two weeks though
