Yesterday I placed my order for the SMC Pentax-FA 35mm f/2 AL within minutes of seeing mention on here that it was avalaible at B&H. The B&H website, at the time, and for the first time in weeks, said "In stock" for this item.

Today, 24 hours later, it still hasn't shipped, and the status as of a few minutes ago was still "Processing". I began to get concerned when I viewed the item's listing on B&H, and now instead of saying "Backordered" (as it said for weeks), or "In stock" (as it said yesterday), it now states something to the effect of "Not an in-stock item. Please allow 7-14 days for special order from manufacturer" (paraphrasing).

I quickly shot off an email to B&H to inquire as to the status of my order. No response yet, but minutes later when I looked at the order tracking page, it is now listed as "On order".

I guess I missed out on getting one from their most recent shipment. It would have been nice to discover that when I placed the order, rather than a day later, especially after requesting 3-day shipping.

I'm sure it's worth the wait, but it's getting a little frustrating.
