Yes, they did. But I'm not aware of any other way to do it. PayPal is the only payment option when ordering from them online and PayPal always charges you immediately, at least as far as I know. I suppose they could refund me the money until they get the camera in stock, but I'm not sure if that would incur extra fees for both of us.
At this point, I'm just hoping they get the camera back in stock in the timeframe they indicated. Practically speaking, I have a camera so I don't need to be in any hurry. But of course, this is quite disappointing since I was getting pretty excited about trying out my new toy.
Anyway, for those considering ordering from them in the future, you might write and explicitly ask if the item you are ordering is in stock before placing the order. I'd had several email communications prior to ordering and they never indicated stock was low or out, but I did not specifically ask them.
