Helen has just emailed me to confirm that my order is OK and going through when the cameras are available. -Thanks Helen.

The bad news is that preorders don't get the discount.

I will still use the discount to buy a couple of lenses though.

the emails (coupons) haven't gone out yet.  They should go out any time though... i think before friday... it is adorama that is sending them.

thanks, leaf!   tom

I have the coupons now, I am just waiting for confirmation to send them out.  They should go out in the next day or two.

This sounds like you physically have coupons (in your hand) and will be mailing them out, but my understanding was that we would receive an email with a promotional/discount code.  Am I misunderstanding something?

I say "coupon". You say "GO". "Coupon" ...

I have to wait for the go ahead from adorama before I send out the coupons.  .. I don't know when exactly it will come..

Thanks Leaf!

Just a quick question for Helen.

What happens with people ordering from Greece, are we allowed to order from the international site or do we have to  order from adorama.gr?  I cannot find Greece in the drop down menu in the international site. The reason i'm asking is that i'm looking at a lens and there is a 200$ difference in the price.

Wow I dropped the ball on this - missed the cutoff.

yeah i got that message too.. I wrote adorama about that and haven't heard back .. I will try again.... they could be on holidays for thanksgiving.

I ordered some stuff on the 25th so that it would get here before I took off in December, no problems with the discount (except I had to order something else to kick it over 200$ - but that is fine, another toy to play with). The package got here the 26th! wow, nice surprise.

on a second note on Adorama, a friend ordered something and later that day the price was lowered and after she called, they switched her to the lower price. Nice. It sure beats some of those fly by night bait and switch places.
