Ok so I ordered my camera and am in urgent need of being able to shoot with it by early January. My sales rep made me aware putting in a second order for a PL mount camera may insure I get my camera faster. I originally ordered the version with the Canon mount and picked up some new lenses.
In the case that the PL mount version is available first I'll be cancelling my order for the Canon EF version.
The 24-70 and 70-200 are brand new, only taken out of the box to be put right in a camera bag, never used as I wait for my camera. All three lenses I'm trying to have sold or at least buyers ready to go just in case I end up with the PL mount version.
I'm not looking for trades, I've listed these for sale elsewhere but thought I'd drop them on here as well incase someone was interested or looking for an extra $50-$100 dollars off these lenses.
If a picture is necessary I'll post. Only serious offers. Don't ask for half off, they're brand new, never used.

No, I'll sell if the PL is ready first, keep if the EF is ready first.
PM offers.

No, I ordered the EF version originally. I planned on that shipping relatively quickly. My order is in the first 100 or so. Thought it would ship faster. Only 5 appear to be out in the wild. PL's are going out relatively quick, and going by the someone accurate list on RU it appears I'm 35-40 orders out.
My rep told me the PL mount versions are more readily available. I'll take shipment on whichever comes up in the Queue first, and cancel the other order or take shipment and sell the body after keeping the mount as some already have mounts and would just prefer to get a body.

It appears to be shipping in small quantities, and not very quickly. They're shipping to those that were in the event in LA first. And not very many have gotten theres that were at the event. PL's are shipping faster and I'm not to far off the queue when it comes to PL's, my rep thought that it would ship quicker than my EF order.
