BG-E11 Battery Grip for 5D Mark III Camera Price???
kidnaper:
No harm done, David!
DHL, I'd not be surprised to see a few start popping up in a little over a week with them widely available in about two weeks. Assuming the late April date still holds true.
Bosman:
Yea, i'd guess late april early may.

It will probably take a couple of months.

Some people detest Amazon for how the MkIII was handled, and then others (such as myself) stay loyal. I've never had an issue with Amazon and will gladly wait a month or two for the grip if it means I get the first-hand tried and true excellent service from amazon that I've come to expect. I also don't see near the level of demand for the grip and can't see it being to difficult to acquire compared to the 5D body.

And with Amazon, they had the MSRP for so long, that the people that did want the grip ordered it from a lot of other places instead of Amazon. So they probably did not get as many orders for it. I ordered from them once it dropped to $358 because I had gift cards and points.

That is exactly my thought process. I personally ordered as soon as it went up hoping they'd adjust the price to msrp. So I'm hoping I'll not have to wait long.

Has anybody received an order update from Amazon? CR guy posted that the grips would be coming soon, but I've gotten no update from Amazon yet.
