This actually can happen quite a bit. They
were expecting them to arrive on a certain date and began sales based on that
expectation.
When the Electrix repeater first hit the
market, I bought one early from an online retailer but Electrix kept pushing
back the release date (for nearly a year if I remember correctly!) To keep
customers happy, sellers should specify when an item is not actually in stock
yet but “expected” to be in and make it clear that it’s a
pre-order and the manufacturer’s ship date could be subject to change, as
setbacks can happen sometimes.

Subject: Anyone buy a Boomerang
III lately?
I was awaiting the unit which I paid for (via eBay
from a vendor selling the 'Rang III's) around 1-28-10. When I inquired, I was
told:
(It has not yet shipped..htey are currently in
production at boomerang and due to ship end of this week i am told..no
dealers have them untill then..originally they were due on the 29th on jan
but it changed..i was sure i emailed you..if you can hang in there it will be
woth it for the free included items..sorry again for the delay.)
I was wondering why they are selling gear they don't
have and accepting payment. Strange.
