They did ship some at the begnining of March, but to my knowledge they haven't resumed. People posted on amazon forums that they were recieving them before the light leak issue.

Has anyone heard about kits shipping anywhere since the light leak?

I ordered mine 4 weeks ago, still nothing. Fingers crossed that it'll ship in a week or two!

 

[Sir Pierre]

Anything? Anybody?

I placed an order a few weeks ago for the kit, and my status still shows "We'll notify you via e-mail when we have an estimated delivery date for this item. It will ship separately. You can cancel at any time."

It seems that no one on any site or forum has had any update from Amazon.

 

[Sir Pierre]

I placed an order on April 9th and was given a May 16 to June 16th ETA. I think amazon was a mistake.

is anyone any better of an option? it appears everyone is out of stock for some time. hey rumor forum, who knows what?!

A batch looks to be shipping today. A Prime order for body-only that I made on 4/12 is shipping today (5/7) with estimated arrival on Wednesday.

 

[Sir Pierre]

Out of curiosity, what ETA did they give you Justin?

 

[climbermatt]

Yesterday my arrival date changed to May 8th or 9th (in a day or two!!!). It was between May 16 to June 16th after Amazon totally screwed up my original order. This is body only.

 

[patrickyandoc]

I ordered mine April 30th and it also still says "We'll notify you via e-mail when we have an estimated delivery date for this item. It will ship separately. You can cancel at any time." Oh how i wish the camera can land in our hands right now. At least its good to know that im not the only one buying from amazon and waiting! Hopefully we'll get it soon guys! and hopefully not in june!

May 17, 2012 - June 19, 2012 was my original ETA.

patrickyandoc, I'm guessing yours will be in next week's batch

 

[stevehaslip]

This afternoon I was contacted by an Amazon Camera Concierge who did his best to try and explain what was happening. He didn't have any new information, just politely asked if I wanted to cancel the order and then said that he would personally be contacting me regarding status updates. Apparently this is standard practice for any high price item you buy on Amazon.

@JustinTArthur i really hope so. The anticipation is killing me haha. Did you receive yours yet? @Climbermatt, did you get yours!? oh mannn!!

 

[Sir Pierre]

Did anyone receive a kit in this last Amazon shipment?

 

[climbermatt]

I received my 5D mark iii body only today from Amazon!

 

[kidnaper]

I received mine from Amazon around March 25th. I ordered body only at 2am the night of the announcement. So yeah, they def put some out but seem to have dried up since.
