Amazon bank holiday 'specials' - anyone else still waiting?
in the week before the Aug bank holiday Amazon advertised the Panasonic GX9 for sale at £379. This was about £120 less than anywhere else and also cheaper than most second hand models. As I was looking to upgrade my Panny G3 I ordered one on the 24th Aug.
Since then 5 delivery dates have come and gone - Amazon are now saying it will be delivered on the 26 or 27 of Sept.
Has anyone else had a similar experience - do they eventually deliver or are they hoping I will get fed up waiting cancel ?

It sounds as if they have had more orders for this item than they bargained for and are trying to source more stock...
I have come across something similar in the past (not Amazon). It appeared that there was a shortage anyway and the seller was keen to sell at the higher price and deliver those first. When they had excess stock they would deliver to a few of those who ordered at the bargain price. After waiting 3 months, I bought the item even cheaper at the NEC and then immediately cancelled the original order.
