Originally posted by Sgtsween I ordered a K-1 last week and the dealer told me it'd be in stock within a week to 10 days. It's day 10 now, and they are saying that Pentax has yet to receive any. I assume they mean Pentax Europe?
Does anyone have any solid or confirmed information on when the next shipment of K-1s to Europe will be? Has anyone seen them come back into stock in Europe over the last few days at any shops?
I know this has been discussed before and there are multiple theories about why there is a backorder. Frankly it's good for Pentax (Ricoh) as it means they are moving. Bad for me, though, as I want mine! Any information would be appreicated. I'm not getting much from my dealer.
Demand has caused the initial shipment to sell out, the earthquakes have reduced the size of subsequent shipments.
