Curious about B&H & mkiii shipments

[ljiang]

I was just chatting with a B&H rep and he said they are expecting a shipment by the end of this week and he confirmed that my body only will be in this shipment.
I ordered on april 3.

Oh great. I ordered the same day, body only too. Let's see...

B&H just told me they can share no information about my 5D3 backorder status.  'Company policy prohibits same.'  I placed my body only order on 3/27.  I guess I can still hope for early next week.

I placed my order on 4/19/12 for the 5D mark III kit.

They just charged my credit card today and say: "Order Status: In stock, order sent to warehouse"

Update: I, like so many of us ordered one last night, and Onecall is sorting through the orders to match time and inventory.  The manager appears to have placed "back order" on the orders until they determine if they have enough inventory.  They say I'm getting the one I ordered.  I ordered 9:27pm PST.  If you ordered from them I would call them to verify.

Onecall tracking numbers are going out in a few hours

Ditto! And I ordered mine from B&H on 5/1.

Just received an auto-notify from NewEgg saying they have bodies in stock, in case anyone is looking:

Also, Beach Camera says shipping in 1-2 days.

You guys eventually get an email saying it was shipped?  I ordered 1 April and it remains back-ordered.

Cancelled from Amazon and reordered from OneCall last night! It has since shipped and is now en route. Tomorrow it will be in my hands! Amazon and B&H really dropped the ball on this one (though, in their defense, I'm sure they get a ridiculous amount of orders compared to smaller retailers).

newegg is out of stock, OneCall says "coming soon"

so i went with Beach Camera, says ships in 1-2 business days.. so i'll keep you all posted. just put my order in right now (May 9th - 9:30pm EST) .. i ordered some cards with them a few weeks ago and they were pretty quick in general

really hope it ships that quick, have a GIANT commercial shoot end of the month that i need it for!  leave for jamaica may 29th!
