Mine got shipped today. Currently BLT has 15 in stock. Price went up though.

Ordered day before yesterday at listed price $515 from BLT after Amazon refused to ship to South Africa. Haven't shipped yet but how cool is it that my invoice now states, after my credit card was approved that I will be charged $414 for it!! Now that is what I call good service!!

That is very cool. I had never ordered from BLT before and wasn't sure what to expect, and was a bit nervous when they delayed it a few times, but I have to say they came through, and combining that with what I've seen from others who've ordered from them, they seem to be a good company to deal with.

Earlier in this thread Skip explained the problems he had with them, and how they asked for some extra info and asked him to jump through some hoops to order.

I'm not sure why they did that to him, as I haven't heard it happening to anyone else (and I ordered from them and had no problems), but I can understand how what happened would frustrate him.

I'm having some issues with them as well. They still haven't shipped my order, even tho their site shows they are in stock, and have been all week. I'm not sure what's holding them up; when I call them they say they are processing the orders, but that seems a little odd to me. I suspect they are shipping out the ones that are at the higher price, but maybe not. In any event, they certainly are NOT shipping them promptly.

Took two days from when I seen available to shipped. Then it took another day for FedEx to get a tracking number. It Should be here tomorrow as long as theirs no problems with FedEx. 5 days isn't bad in my book including free shipping. Was also waiting a bit on back order. Worth the money saved in my book.

Killjoy as long as theirs sufficient stock and your inline I wouldn't cancel. You should get it next week and hope before turkey day.

Yeah - I'm going to wait it out. If they come through, then I'll be happy; I'm patient. I just wish that they were a little more accurate in their status on the site, but maybe they're a small company.

Nice! I'm going to hold off awhile until the prices start to drop again. Still happy with what I have but once I can grab it for $400 delivered I'll buy it. Probably in a couple of months I'd say.

Hopefully none of you will get the dreaded dead throttle issue.
