It's not catching it before you got the camera, it's:
1.) You see the unbelievable price for the K-7 and you hit buy,
2.) You give them your credit card number,
3.) They debit your credit card,
4.) They mail you a link to an online receipt that shows you bought a K-7.
Now comes conjecture since they probably wouldn't send you 1/2 of a K-7.
5.) Your purchase is delivered and you discover they shipped you a K-x
because that's what the amount of money you authorized pays for.
6..) Whey you contact them to complain, they then blame you because you
should have known that a K-7 just wouldn't be sold for such a low price.
That's the equivelent to what B&H did.

Here's a thought experiment:
What would you do if you went to the B&H web site right now and saw a
Pentax K7 listed for $514.00?
If I were in the market for a K7 I might try to get it for that price.
In fact, if the Sony A850 showed up on B&H for $1000 I'd hit the "Buy"
button so fast there'd be skid marks on the mouse pad. But if they
caught it before I got the camera I'd just shrug my shoulders and
think "Damn, they caught that one..." I certainly wouldn't throw a
wobbler over it.
