pkfarrell Posted October 31, 2009 Share #1 Posted October 31, 2009 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hey all— I've been on one waiting list with a prominent dealer of all things photo in Manhattan since halfway through the announcement 9/9/09....and i've subsequently called to check in on when they are expecting bodies to be available since then...yesterday when i asked, i was told that "they expect to have all the cameras they could want by the end of November".... I'm just shy of the top ten on their waiting list [obviously they were taking pre-orders before the official announcement! haha]....so we'll see if i have to wait until the end of November... but either way that sounded promising to me...

brt3 Posted October 31, 2009 Share #3 Posted October 31, 2009 I've heard the same thing from a prominent dealer in the Southeast US; he said that, after conferring with Leica, he believed there would be a LOT of product delivered over the next month, beginning with the week to come and then ramping up. As one of those still waiting, I hope he was correct! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guido Posted October 31, 2009 Share #4 Posted October 31, 2009 Are we talking about the black ones, or about the grey ones as well? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pkfarrell Posted October 31, 2009 Author Share #5 Posted October 31, 2009 ... fotocare....great people, top notch [i'd imagine their wait list is pretty long]....black, didn't ask about color.... personally i'm thrown off by the grip material on the grey...same as M8....not as good as earlier Ms...feels cheaper to me...glad they changed it for the black M9s...

brt3 Posted November 1, 2009 Share #6 Posted November 1, 2009 Are we talking about the black ones, or about the grey ones as well? I was told the black bodies would start flowing next week and that the steel gray body shipments would ramp up in 3-4 weeks. I'm holding out for gray, so I really hope this pans out...

A Sfeir Posted November 1, 2009 Share #7 Posted November 1, 2009 Advertisement (gone after registration) I am on the waiting list of a dealer in Paris. Was also told the same thing, i.e. that large deliveries will be coming in November, and they hope to fulfill 80% of all their pre-orders by then. It seems many dealers in different countries are now telling the same story. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mwalker649 Posted November 1, 2009 Share #8 Posted November 1, 2009 I was told by Camera West that Leica told them that their entire waiting list will be taken care of by the end of November. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
