Often, with time-embargoed products (Fexed 2 days), companies ship 2 days before the product availability date. So, I decided to check in with B&H today.
I checked earlier this morning, and there was no status change. But I just checked and the status had changed to; New Order - Estimated Delivery Pending.
What was it before? I think for most of us, it changed some time ago. Mine currently says "New Order - Coming Soon, Will begin shipping 2024-08-20". On July 30 I received an email, which stated, in part, "Thank you for your purchase of the new Canon EOS R5 Mark II at B&H Photo! We appreciate your business. The product you ordered is currently on pre-order, and the confirmed ship date is August 20, 2024." I believe the state of the order online has remained the same since then.
