And it says that "this is not a regularly stocked item. Estimated arrival at B&H is 7-14 business days. You will be charged upon placing your order." They are still quoting the Sony dark blue as in stock, but at this point, I don't trust them enough to go for the other color. My first experience with them and already a disappointment. I'm schooling myself for at least a 15 days wait or even longer in this case.
B&H is a very reputable store, as is Adorama. I use both of them all the time for my photographic equipment. That said, things happen, and so I'm not sure what happened to your order. I just wanted to let you know that while this is frustrating, B&H is a good store to deal with.
