I doubt it was that. Amazon has not been a very good friend to Pentax products; they don't even stock half the lenses now (all the FA limiteds, last time I looked, were from 3rd parties). I'd suspect that Amazon just wasn't going to get anything before anyone else simply because they have little relationship with Ricoh.
