p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · 7D II took the plunge


Just ordered a 7D II from B&H with free overnight shipping. Have a couple of 100-400 II coming in tomorrow morning.
As excited as I am about using the 7D II with the 100-400s I think I'm more excited trying it with my 800.

Congrats! Don't forget to throw a 1.4TC on that 800 to take advantage of the f/8 on the 7DII. Talk about a lot of reach....

Congrats Rod. Sounds like you got away with just ordering a single item this time.

Trust me I understand your fury. I actually paid for overnight with Amazon on my 100 400 II, AND I am a prime member so I get free 2 day shipping, but I wanted it even faster. They screwed it up and gave me 10 day ground shipping accidently. I was livid to say the least. Same story, same song, after it's shipped there is NOTHING they can or will do. At least that is what the 3 different reps I spoke to (Loudly) told me.

Yes, I think one will be shipped Monday. I've also sold my VII. So lookin good. If you get overly anxious to try one (7d2) out, there is still mine to play with.

Did you buy new or find a gently used one?

Used, but the seller only purchased this summer from B & H. Sent you a private note with details.

Wow... some rage here. How does one live on Earth where things never go ideally all the time? Maybe good blood pressure pills.

That's why I buy from either Adorama or through Canonpricewatch. Additionally, BH always seems to be closed at the most inconvenient times.

Oh, they *can* do something- former UPSer here, that dug through tractor trailers to find customer's packages- but getting a retailer to pay for that service is rare .

Also, to the OP, your title made me think of this: Pentax Dust and Weather Sealing in Afghanistan

the same thing happened to me at Adorama. Their website said free overnight shipping on all 7D Mk II. they sent it by UPS ground and they took about three days before they even shipped. when I inquired about it they said there was a button on the preorder form for overnight. I really have trouble believing that. if they offered free overnight, who would want anything else.

I’m confused as to why this thread was started. It wasn’t even about supposedly slow shipping from B&H. It was about nothing.

And rule #1 of internet commerce: Don’t order something online that you need yesterday.

Really David? Adorama is closed at the same times. It's called their religion.
