I am not NPS, ordered from B&H, confirmation at 8:06am on 10/28. Checked with B&H today, standard answer that they have no ETA for next shipment from manufacturer for Nikon Z9 yet. Still waiting...
Might try Best Buy online. I’ve been checking everyday, and now they’re taking orders for 1/26 store pickup. I also have a 10/28 non-NPS order from BH, and will cancel it if this Best Buy order pans out.

Thanks for the heads up. Just placed an order through Best Buy as well. It says it will be available for pickup 1/21 so we will see. If I get it Friday I will cancel my order through Adorama. Fingers crossed…..

Interesting, Best Buy has only ever shown as Sold Out for me despite checking it after you and gilgabo posted this. Might be region-specific even when using the website.
No big deal, just found it curious as I figured the website's stock was nation-wide and they would just ship it to you regardless of where it was being warehoused.
I know they use their local stores as mini-warehouses to compete better with Amazon (and it has worked amazingly well for them) so it's possible stores in your area got some inventory of Z9s and that is why it is showing up for you.

Ya who knows. It has shown “Sold Out” every time I have checked until today. Today was the first day I had the option to buy. We shall see if they come through or not. Either way it gives me more hope than Adorama has. Lol.

Thank you! I have my order from Nikon but it still is showing as processing. If I do get it by the 26th from Best Buy then I will cancel the order with Nikon. I actually preferred to get it from Best Buy since I am an elite member but it always showed as sold out. Thank you again.

My Z9 is in its 4th day sitting on a FedEx truck in my town. I have come to despise FedEx, their service has gone in the toilet in my area whereas UPS and Postal Service have been able to maintain consistent delivery. I’m sure others are having the opposite experience but where I live FedEx has become a total joke.

Agreed with your FedEx statement...UPS and USPS have been more reliable lately. I have had packages stay at the same locations for days for some reason.

I think it must vary considerably according to location. In this area both FedEx and UPS are great while USPS absolutely SUCK. Our 50 yard driveway is straight 13ft wide with a 26ft wide space at the end. FedEx, UPS, Amazon, Oil Delivery all have no problems. USPS claim they are not allowed to enter driveways and just dump parcels on the grass at the mailbox.
Perhaps someone can tell me if this a national USPS rule or just the morons in Lebanon County Pennsylvania.

Yep, really bad service and yet, top dollar is paid. I have my suspicions as to why this is but being somewhat political in nature, I am not going to post it here.
