Maybe it depends on the people skills on the telephone of the parties involved. As the saying goes you can catch more flies with honey than you can with vinegar.

That's a mostly a crock. If a retailer is running a special such as a coupon and I don't have the coupon at the time of purchase it's SOL. B&H routinely offers free shipping or free upgraded shipping as specials on limited time basis. I've ordered supplies from them with free shipping and a month later when I wanted to reorder items free shipping was no longer offered.

So it would seem Ricoh's webstore had so few pre-orders they were able to fulfill the orders in one day. And with inventory left over to be able to ship new orders the same day. Wasn't a poster moaning about what a mistake it was to pre-order direct from Ricoh?

Excited for all who ordered. Ricoh/Pentax is supposed to be at the LA PHotoCon May 21-22. I might bop on over to check out the K-1 if Samy's doesn't have a display model.

It probably means the order was sent to the warehouse to pull the item from inventory and send it to the shipping department.

I've gone to order stuff on eBay from Chinese vendors and seen a note that orders would not be processed and shipped until after the week of (date) as they were closed for business in observance of the New Year.
Many people have been waiting 10 years for the K-1. Relatively speaking a few more days is insignificant although it may feel like another 10 years.
How are these businesses going to tell you when they are closed and their religious practices prohibit them from doing work during the holiday? Some even feel answering the telephone (even voice mail) to be "work".

They've already lost a weeks worth of business for observing they're religious holidays and you want to penalize them even more simply because you can't wait a couple more days?
