You can still purchase now and get the discount even though you may have a wait

I waited 5 weeks for my K1 mark ii. No Regrets.

You just order it, Kyteflyer. Modern retailers avoid inventory where possible, it ties up cash, destroys the company's liquidity. Make some other sucker responsible for keeping it on their shelf.

LOL! OK

Wonder why CRK have the KP and the K70 at the same price. I'm actually considering the K70 instead because it has a variable angle screen. I'm less enamoured of the tilty screen.

Good moderating of my post, Sandy, kept the idea, substituted the word, thanks!

We must remember that words we don't find offensive are awful for other places on the planet. I forgot, too.

I ordered the DA*11-18 and it was on backorder. I did the same with the DFA150-450 a few years ago. The date they provide for availability was almost spot on, I think it was a day out. So they are saying 23rd Septemeber for the DA*11-18, I'd be surprised if I didn't have it within a week of that date.

They themselves are really quick once it arrives at their premises. But it does have to get to them first.

My K-1 was delayed by a couple of days because Border Force took a lot of interest in the container ship that was carrying it, doing extra searches while it was in dock.
