Curious about B&H & mkiii shipments

[IanSpiers]

If I order a $20 pizza and it's late, someone had better be talking to me with transparency. And we're spending over $3500 on a camera? Really?

Glad to hear your orders are finally being fulfilled. I sympathize that Canon failed to deliver adequate shipments to B&H, but it's B&H's responsibility to keep us informed. The truth is that there is absolutely no reason that we should have to form a support group like this so we can tell what's going on with our orders.

B&H dropped the ball. I am happy to make my purchase elsewhere.

Oh yeah ;-). Me too, ordered Aril 3rd (102010xxxx), body only from B&H. Seems Mokh24 is good at digging out information from customer service rep.

Hahaha!!! Yeah after a daily live chat with the cs reps, i think they got fed up from me, not the other way around !!!

FINALLYYYY, my order says its sent to warehouse...
Body only ordered on april 3!!!

The status of 5D3 (body only) just changed to "In stock, order sent to warehouse". The order was placed on April 2, 2012.

The status of my 3/27 body only order is now "in stock, order sent to warehouse" at B&H. Maybe tomorrow with my overnight delivery? WOW, I'll have to get my champagne on ice for the celebration! Thanks for the support to the users of this forum!

Body only from B&H ordered march 25 status changed from back ordered to sent to warehouse. The wait is finally over. I'll celebrate when it actually gets here!

Just checked and mine is processing to warehouse! Ordered 4/19.

I'm getting kind of nervous. Ordered on 3/26 and status is "New order processing" while everyone else is getting sent to the warehouse. I hope it's just because they need to split an item that is still backordered item from the camera.

Wow, B&H must have got a pretty big shipment this batch, they seem to have at least cleaned orders from 3/22 to 4/19, about a month of back order.

Just got my UPS tracking number from B&H on my 5D3 body only order of 3/27. I requested overnight delivery so it will be here tomorrow!

Just checked and my status is now sent to ware house. I ordered 3/26 the body only. Good news. I haven't gotten a ship notice yet but I assume I'll get it the beginning of next week. Any news on the battery grip?

Can't wait! I'm upgrading from a 5yr+ 40D. I also got the 85L with this order and I cannot wait to use this magical combination.

Looks like back order situation is going to be over at next shipment.

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!

update on my beach camera order.. i called them to ask for an update today (ordered last night, with them saying shipping 1-2 business days) they said they didnt get their shipment in today, but it will now arrive to them on tuesday (15th) and it will ship then. their website still says they are available to order to ship in 1-2 business days.. im still debating on putting a new order at B&H as well just to play safe as i need it by the 25th, luckily for me both Beach Camera and B&H are just a few states over so typically only take 1 day on ground delivery

Ordered on April 4 from B&H and was just notified of shipment! Can't wait!

I ordered my 'body only' from B&H on March 25th and it still says backordered!
I'm starting to lose patience with them.

Status has now changed to 'In Stock, Order Sent to Warehouse'. Can't wait!

Same here too - Ordered the body only on 4/2 and the status changed to 'In Stock, Order Sent to Warehouse' as well. Excited!!!

Ordered a body from B&H on 04/18. Waited. Waited. Never received any updates from their sales department or customer service.

Saw the body for $3445 on the AAFES (miltary PX) website IN-STOCK! Jumped on it and got a confirmation email that the body would ship 05/12!

Cancelled my order with B&H so I wouldn't end up owning two bodies.

Tracked my order on AAFES today and it says backordered until 06/15! "Oops! We're sorry! Our mistake!"

OH...MY...GOD...
