Preordered body only from Best Buy at 8:03AM 7/9. My order was "delayed" on 7/20, with a notice that it would be automatically canceled 7/27. I called in, and two people at bestbuy customer service assured me it wouldn't be canceled on 7/27. On 7/27 my order was canceled. I called, emailed, and tweeted, and they did nothing. I placed a new order on 7/28, and it currently has a "Getting it ready" status.

Based on what canonrumors posted (someone told by canon support that next batch will be shipping in november), I am not optimistic. And I'm furious at best buy.

Sorry this happened to you.  I am in a similar position.  I ordered the kit around 8:15 am on 7/9.  Mine was "getting it ready" a couple of days ago and now it is "delayed".  Mine will be automatically cancelled on 8/6.  I fully expect it not to ship at this point and will be canceled (which is absurd).  They should just leave our order in the queue.  I also have a 10% (July only birthday coupon that will go away).  I am also not happy with BB.  I have always been a loyal customer, but this may be last straw.

I hope your new one goes through soon!
