I just got an email today from Amazon saying my order shipment date is being pushed back to Dec 24th! Doesn’t seem like we’ll be getting them this year…
ordered a black one through your link! 8.14am 11/30 lets see when it will ship?
Owe you a beer now 😉
No problem. I really appreciate your site. I check it several times a day.
Ordered mine yesterday, they gave me a dec 27 – feb 7th window for delivery. I love panasonic’s cameras, but why oh why are their launches always such disasters?
If Canada is shipping now, I’m sure Amazon will start shipping within a few days from now. It’s just that their customer service is pure horror, and they have no clue and don’t care what happened to your particular order, so might cancel it or not before they ship it. That’s what happens when you become the biggest online store without competition. It happened to me on various occasions.
Blame lovely Panasonic, I bet my dinner that Amazon have no real word from thm about date and number of units.
Yep, blame Panasonic. They’ve told all US retailers 3 different dates over the past month and a half, two dates passed without any word from Panasonic and the new date from most sources is the December 17th. Notifications to expect orders to ship were sent to customers, then pre-orders canceled or pended indefinitely.
And to rub it in you can:
– Buy one of the many cameras in stock from Japan (with Japanese menus only) for a $300 profit for the reseller through eBay.
– Last Friday you could WALK INTO Henry’s or Vistek in Canada and buy a black GH2 kit.
– Have your pre-order fulfilled by Mathers in the UK when they ship theirs to customers THIS THURSDAY despite Panasonic telling European retailers that there would be a delay on shipments because of “late technical adjustments”.

@ Joe Benjamin. Thanks for the Mathers UK tip. I cancelled my order with Amazon @ £1299 and ordered it from Mathers at £1049 – a saving of £250. Mathers shipping tomorrow.
