TheHobbit Posted July 29, 2015 Share #227 Posted July 29, 2015 Advertisement (gone after registration) I was told by the local boutique (Taiwan) the demand for the Q in North Asia is very high (China, Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan). Supply is only trickling in and they have not had any delivery in the past 3 weeks. Preordered mine in early June, and still waiting. In the mean time, its T time.

barjohn Posted July 29, 2015 Share #228 Posted July 29, 2015 It is interesting to note that a Hong Kong seller had 11 cameras for sale for $4999 and had sold one. Suddenly he disappeared from eBay. Two Amazon sellers each have one camera for sale. One for about $7,500 and the other one for about $6999. I'm sure they are hoping for a desparate buyer.

Tmfs Posted July 29, 2015 Share #229 Posted July 29, 2015 If it means anything at all... my order was from early June and they told me October as well. It is entirely possible they don't really know. :-) Online chat with B&H this morning, they said the estimate available date is Oct 7!!!

CYBORA Posted July 29, 2015 Share #230 Posted July 29, 2015 If it means anything at all... my order was from early June and they told me October as well.

prk60091 Posted July 29, 2015 Share #231 Posted July 29, 2015 I am guessing but I think I can guess what is going on. It is my understanding that many European companies take August as a holiday month. I remember last August we were on holiday in Paris and many family owned businesses/restaurants were closed. If that is true in Germany (and I have no reason to believe it is not) then with production diminished in August - a company may not want to ramp up production in the end of July and leave many products in a partial completed state .... That would explain the October delivery dates.... 4 weeks in September to get the production up and ship by 1st week in October. I cannot believe in this day and age that any company would want to let customers (with cash in hand wanting a product) leave without a chance to purchase --allowing the customer to go elsewhere with their money--- just saying..

southflorida Posted July 30, 2015 Share #234 Posted July 30, 2015 Sounds like some more arrived in the US today. I got my name on a list at a camera shop about 2 weeks ago and was told it arrived today. The shop only received 1. I got really lucky. Apparently, the USA Q's have been arriving in quantities as small as 20. Can't wait! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ricky1981 Posted July 31, 2015 Share #238 Posted July 31, 2015 You guys are lucky, I ordered quite a while ago but only two Q's have made it into New Zealand so far and there's a deafening silence when I ask when more are expected Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orguy Posted July 31, 2015 Share #240 Posted July 31, 2015 Tmfs: did you say that you placed an order with B&H for the Q on June 11 and they sent you a shipment notification for Q? I put in an order to B&H early June myself - maybe I will hear soon too! Is the order they send them out exactly the same as the queue of the orders?
