Just picked up my M10 at Florham Camera NJ, I ordered on April 21st. Gary called me on Tuesday said that I'll receive it this week. Here it is!

This is my first M camera! It's amazing!

Going to cancel the order at Soho Leica store.

Btw mine M10 is black and made on June 2nd.

Try calling Murphy's camera and see how is it! I was on that list last week and I was 2nd on that list :) I just cancelled it today when I got my M10.

Got my black M10 today! Made 24/5/2017.

Checking online with a few European stores last week and saw this had one in stock. A phone call and several emails later the purchase was done. Received it this morning. Being wait listed didn't help. Finger work and calling worked faster. Snagged it from shop from a town in France I've never heard of -- Reflex Pro from Arras. Delivered across the Atlantic then to the Pacific coast in 3 days. Now waiting for accessories (battery, Visoflex and thread adapter) from UK and a custom strap from Portugal.

Proof that despite the long waits, output now exceeds one a day. :)  Mine was born on the exact same date as yours and delivered today as well.  Picked my M10 up this morning this morning in Boston.  Got the Visoflex, but the awaiting a spare battery still. 

 

Oh yeah and black as well.

finally find a authorized retailer, after some emails, they ask me for my Credit card #,  expiration date, & 3 digit security code and shipping address in order to "put the order through their security screenings tomorrow". My question is that, is this normal, I mean, I never unclosed my cc information to anyone.

Yeah.....looks like we can start looking for a second body :-).

 

Congratulations to all new owners, I'm sure the anger and frustration about the long wait is blown away.

 

@seanzzzz - I would NOT give them the 3-digit security code, sounds fishy to me. If I do an online purchase (e.g. Amazon) using any of my credit cards, card# and exp. date is enough, I'm then being redirected to a website that will send me a 6-digit PIN to my phone to authorise.

Only way I'd ever give credit card information is if it were part of a sale.  If that dealer has an M10 and is selling it to you, then that's fine.  If they're asking for your CC information for any other reason - such as to put you on a waiting list or to otherwise "authorize" you - it's not.

Definitely think that supply is loosening. I took other posters advice and called around to smaller Leica dealers listed on the Leica website. I was on three lists - the first being Tamarkin in Chicago where I was 161st on April 10. I'm next up at Dodd Camera in Cleveland but I got a call yesterday from Murphy's in Louisville, KY (ordered on June 5) and my silver has been shipped! It took me awhile to be convinced to make those calls but very glad I did.

And a lot more pleasing and useful for others to hear these stories than to read daily complaints about wait lists instead of using a bit of initiative. Congrats.

I didn't call, I visited several small dealers in three countries. Far more fun to talk cameras and Leica business practices in person.

 

Learned a lot in the process. Just hope what they are saying about SD cards and problems holds true. Really don't want to send this thing back to Germany.
