[QUOTE="d0dja, post: 203773, member: 2244"] >Four months later it was released To be fair, sometimes the local dealers simply can't get stock because the manufacturer allocates production runs and certain markets get first dibs on stock, and us "junior" markets only get when the initial launch is over. Happens all the time on higher-end camera gear -- Canon USA, Asia and Europe get stock, we see nothing for months. Certain popular lenses are always on back-order because local guys only get an allocation of a handful of units. Sometimes it's just laziness, though >:D [/QUOTE]
