[hoghavemercy]

my 983xx 3/14 was cancelled since i pre-ordered at Adorama too on 4/04 and they have it on stock, i will have it by Wednesday 4/18 :-X

 

[Mokh24]

Anyone ordered later than march 08 got his mark iii shipped ???

 

[digitalz]

Ordered April 1. 1020071XXX

Not shipped yet. :-\

 

[Mokh24]

Too early for april orders it seems!!! i've prdered on april 3 :s
I am afraid the light leak issue could make us wait l even longer? I am not hearin from anyone who ordered on march 8 or later...

 

[Mokh24]

I've received the below email from b&h customer service... Really hoping it will be shipped before end of april !!!


"I'm really sorry to hear that you are having such trouble with your purchase, and I really apologize for any inconvenience this has caused. Please understand that this camera is the hottest on the market, and we started accepting order on 3/2. Unlike other camera stores B&H has a much higher volume or order to fill. Currently we are still filling orders placed on 3/8, so it will probably take some time to fill your order date of 4/3.

Unfortunately the reason you have been getting such responses, because those are the facts. We don't always know how many are coming and how often they come. We do fill order on a first come first serve basis. Unfortunately at this time we have yet to have anon confirm when the next shipment will arrive, and how many are coming. Your position on the list isn't the important factor. For example if you are #444 and we receive a shipment of 250 once a week, then you are about 2 weeks away. However if you are #99 and we receive one shipment a week, and only 25 at a time then you are about a month away.

As you can see guessing isn't much fun, at B&H we only provide information that is factual. So since we don't know we don't guess. I can tell you that we have filled 3/4 of our preorders, and Canon has done a great job of shipping us as many as they can. I would hope that before April is over we will be able to ship your order, unfortunately I cannot tell you for certain. I apologize for any inconvenience and I hope you enjoy your honeymoon.


Please let us know if there is anything else we can assist you with.

Thank you, we appreciate your business. "

Ordered March 25... Still nothing here! I have a feeling the light leak issue has slowed the process a little. Im thinking early May for myself unfortunately.

 

[Todd_H]

Mine was the 10198708xx 0950 EST 3/13 order listed above. My order showed "processing" this past Monday on the website, but I found the body only at Adorama, so I jumped on it and cancelled my B&H order.

 

[Renato]

I am pissed off at B&h. They are not providing any information about backlog period. I am guessing they don't want people to cancel the orders by knowing that their backlog is enormous. I ordered on april 4th and they charged my credit card the same day. They say it is because of international order, but my currency is in dollars so no possibility of exchange problems. They have my money and do not provide any information. I am seriously considering canceling the order. To top all this frustration Canon is mute and deaf also.

 

[lhammarlund]

Ordered on 03/13/12 Order # 10198735xx. Haven't heard a thing. Mine hasn't ever said anything other than Backordered when I check the site. I'll update in this thread when mine ships.

 

[Mokh24]

And now the-digital-picture.com is saying he has received info that canon canada and uk are holding shipments!!!!

http://www.the-digital-picture.com/News/News-Post.aspx?News=2267

What a GREAT NEWS !!!!!!!

 

[AShergill]

I had planned to order from Adorama after they opened from the Passover holiday. Happened to check on Newegg while perusing for some CF cards, and saw both the kit and body-only in stock (on the 13th, I think.) Went for the kit right away, and it was delivered last evening! Glad I didn't wait as the Newegg stock ran out by the following day.

 

[Mokh24]

I was chatting with a cs rep from b&h and he has informed me that they haven't received any shipments from canon since the passover!!!
Is it possible canon US r going to announce the suspension too ?
