No need to manually check the Fuji web store you’ll never catch one. Just sign up for email alerts. Which begs the question why they aren’t restocking 100, 200, 500 units at a time. It’s not like the factory is making 2-3 unit deliveries to the US every week…is it?

Have you actually received a stock alert from them? I never did and people on Reddit are questioning if they actually work, even after signing up for an account on there. I got mine just by refreshing periodically and getting lucky.

I did. About 3 weeks ago. Got 2 email alerts for the black and silver X100V. Looking at my black one right now. They both sold out in about 5-10minutes so others are getting the alerts.

I have no idea how Fuji allocate sock by country, and to different retailers. In the U.K. I have ordered out of stock items from Wilkinson Cameras and Wex, and always notified when the item(s) arrive. I waited a little while for my X100V in 2021, and when I traded my X-T4 in against X-T5 waited a few weeks for it to come, although according to Fuji Rumors at that time people were still waiting for their pre-orders. With Hoya filters I’ve waited a few months sometimes, but Wex always emailed and shipped when the stock arrived.
