[QUOTE="Dr Clive Ferguson, post: 479732, member: 40267"] Thank you all for the advice. I did check a US web site and before looking into the shipping aspect I found that on current exchange rates the price seemed much higher than Australia. I also originally ordered through a grey online supplier and (after a week) they told me they did not have it in stock, did not know how long it would take to get it and offered me my money back. The current online site is an authorised retailer located very close to Nikon Australia and they checked with NA before telling me delivery could be UP TO three weeks. Something does not add up. If the camera was sent to someone who had been waiting longer you would expect that camera to actually be for that purchaser and my camera would still be in transit. However it is not in transit and is now expected to take more than another 3 weeks. Your comments on manufacturing not being able to keep up with demand perhaps gave the best explanation...thanks.
