Originally posted by RawheaD Well, I had a preorder in at Adorama, but they wouldn't give me a firm date, and the one date I got was "Ready to ship by July 9th".
Well, I'm leaving the country for a 1 month travel to Japan (and a bit to China) on July 15th, and that was just cutting it too close, so I cancelled.
I did have a Plan B; a reserved unit at a retailer in Tokyo. Well, they contacted me yesterday, and my unit will be ready for pick up on the 26th, after 4PM :-D
Of course, I can't go myself, but I'm asking my brother to pick it up for me (who also happens to have a reserved K-7 he's picking up there; side-note, I/K-7 converted him from a D90 shooter to a Pentaxian :-), and because it's so early (how can I wait 3 weeks before I get my hands on it???), I'm gonna have him express mail it to me :-) I should have the unit in my hands by the middle of next week!
I too pre-ordered at Adorama and worse I'm leaving July 14th, basically if it's not ready to ship Friday 10th (I picked one day air shipping) I'm in no luck.
Is there a way your brother could buy one for me as well? I mean really?!
I could use paypal and pay whatever fees to you directly.
Seriously!
I tried browsing
