5D III - is in stock at Cruchfield - no sale tax

[grahamsz]

My account shows an invoice and a qty shipped!

No tracking # yet tho

thats exactly what mine said yesterday right after i ordered it, but calling in they still say its in "process".
i guess thats better then "pending" from adorama.

Hmmm, mine sat pending all night and then flipped to that sometime this morning.

2 day air has a 5pm shipping cut off, which means that likely the UPS truck wont pick up until 6 eastern. This looks a lot better than anything I saw out of Amazon.

I also ordered on the phone and talked to someone who could give me a count of remaining units, he sounded very confident that they were in stock. I'm feeling fairly good about it all, but still have a pre-order at my local store where I'm not number #2 on the list of people waiting for kits. We'll see!

Just an FYI, when I checked my order status at 10am EST, it said I needed to call to confirm some info. I called right away, and all they needed was to confirm my phone number. After that, it was marked as processed, 2 hours later, it had shipped!

 

[iso79]

My order just shipped too!!

You maybe be able to call crutchfield and see if they'll stop it, maybe they could send yours to msdarkroom since they screwed him over.

two better none... You might be able to sell one camera on craiglist for $3600, NOW that's $100 profit

I see the kit has a shipping weight of 8.4 pounds. Holy crap on a stick!

Mine is now marked as shipped too! I'm still a LITTLE hesitant to cancel my amazon order because of the possible ramifications of such actions supposing Crutchfield is playing a huge joke on me. I doubt that's the case, but I can't help but feels like it's too good to be true, like it was just TOO easy. We Shall see. Congrats to everyone who got in on this deal and happy trails!

Damn, I wish I did not miss out on this. 4% fatwallet cashback, too.

Well, I placed the order anyway... shipped today's morning! Glad I did not cancel after getting shippment notification from Adorama, since the one I received from them was defective. I hope Crutchfield did a better packaging job than Adorama did.
