jaxphotocat Posted June 4, 2004 Share Posted June 4, 2004 Well I finally ordered my Nikon D70 (the lens kit with the short zoom) and I also bought the Nikon macro 60mm ($75 rebate with a Nikon camera body purchase). I bought it at a Ritz Camera store near me and it will be shipped to me. Did anyone else buy it this way? How long was your wiat? I did it because I like to support my community and I am also getting 6 months insterest free to pay it off! Also, from B&H I order the ML-L3 wireless remote for the D70 (ordered it online) and now when I try to track it online at UPS's tracking page here is all it says: ---- UPS has received shipper's billing information electronically. Billing information received does not indicate shipment pickup or drop-off. Please contact the shipper for more details. ---- Is B&H charging me and not shipping it yet? I am worried that they lied about having it in stock? Thanks, Mark Sablow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_fall Posted June 4, 2004 Share Posted June 4, 2004 lol nah don't worry bout it, ups ussally updates there information ecery 24 hrs at night, and with it being friday, if u ordered it today it prob won't get to ship till mon anyways. but they've deffently have it in stock and packed and ready to go for u if it says shipping information recieved, just means ups might not of picked it up yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richard_westcott Posted June 4, 2004 Share Posted June 4, 2004 I just received an order from B & H. Placed late on fri 5/28. UPS showed Billing information received on Mon 5/31 a holiday. Changed to in transit 6/1. At my door in Idaho 6/3. I think B & H request pickup electronically. Info changes to in transit after it is picked up.

todd peach seattle, washi Posted June 4, 2004 Share Posted June 4, 2004 May not be a factor in this one, but I think B&H shuts down around noon on Fridays (an orthodox jewish thing) and is closed Saturdays. If you're sitting around anxiously awaiting status updates before the weekend, this little wrinkle can throw you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim_gifford Posted June 4, 2004 Share Posted June 4, 2004 <<Is B&H charging me and not shipping it yet?

They will not lie to you about having something in stock. They are capable of error in such matters, occasionally, but they are not interested in lying about it! Yes, there ARE companies that lie about product status and try to give customers the shaft. I have a lot of experience with B&H as a customer over the years, and I don't worry at all about being mistreated. Be well, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
summitar Posted June 5, 2004 Share Posted June 5, 2004 My experience is that B&H is among the most trustworthy of photo companies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
