You'll have to call to see who has 'em in stock.

Dealers we've been hearing good reports on include Abel Cine Tech (new home of the DVXUser discount), Spec-Comm, B&H, Birns & Sawyer, AVS, EVS, Lerro, ProMedia in Tennessee, and Roscor.

Yippi friggin do da!!!!
I just got confirmation that my HVX will be delivered by UPS on Monday.
I got mine in California from Snader. They told me they could get it and guess what, they did! And at a very fair price.
Their number is 916-782-7700
My sales guy was Chad at ex. # 305. Tell him I sent you!

I think these guys have an in with Panasonic. They seem to be able to get several of them.
Snader even hooked me up with a GREAT Panasonic rep that not only offered to send his camera if mine didn't come, but also personally helped me with a handful of issues we were having getting HD from my demo into our system.

Panasonic gets a 10 for customer service and Snader gets an 11.
That's big because I almost never rate any company over an 8 on customer service! :kali:
 
Thanks guys.

barry, any links to those sites, googling doesnt do much help for me here. :?

thanks alot i really appreciate it. im ready to pay 200 for overnight shipping. I HATE Waiting for stuff in the mail. Waiting for the Macbook was torture.

probably the 8.25% sales tax.

try Birns & Sawyer they are very reputable.. I trusted them enough to pay for my camera in cash in advance and they did me right..

what's the hell is the ABELCINE DISCOUNT!!!?
 
Abel is most able

Abel is most able

The discount is in the over the top service. Where else would they loan you a camera, a test bench, HD monitor, your own copy of the manual and Tiffany (an employee/filmmaker) to help you perform fornmat & resolution camera tests? And chase down the TC slaving problem we experienced? Certainly not B+H.

Service and support are the best discounts, everything else is a waste of time.

Able Cinetech rocks and is well worth the support.

I love the title for this thread. My first response was, "Yeah? Get it line, buddy!" I had to wait ten weeks for mine. Good luck getting one quick.
P.S.: Full Compass (fullcompass.com) got me an HVX before anyone else --- even those companies where I was on the waiting list.
 
snader does rock. and very reputable, they usually work with corporations in the bay area but are also good at supporting individual purchases.
 
I purchased my original DVX-100 from Abel cinetec in LA, yes I paid tax because I live in California but Their service is amazing! They will ALWAYS be there for tech support for the life of your camera, I now have like 600 some hours on the original DVX. I will be buying my HVX from them based on my positive experience, and believe me, I am a demanding person. In fact I am probably on some "customer service nightmare pain in the ass watch list". Having said that Abel is by far the best. And I have nothing against New York, but B&H are generally rude and not helpful, I try not to spend any money with them.
 
I'm from the Bay Area but I've never used Snader before.
Just visited the site to check and it sucks!
Maybe the service will compensate the absolute lack of useful info and pictures. But my first impression is very poor. I could not find a camera for sale…

Go with B&H or Abel.
B&H is slightly more expensive but great service, 100% guaranteed and you'll not pay tax if you are outside NY.

Abel has an Store in NY as well, wink wink.
 
I was not slamming NYC. I was simply stating fact: B&H does not have the service/knowledge level that Abel Cinetec does. Abel backs up what they sell, they answer ANY questiuon you have about pretty much aything related to film/tv production, they are passionate about what they do, and they have a super reputation. I mean sure, B&H is cheap but for the most part they have poor customer service.

B&H does not have poor customer serivce they have TERRIBLE customer service in fact 2 weeks ago I ordered some stuff online but for some reason the order (a $10,000 order) did not go thru so I called them up next mornig and a RUDE guy said well you should make sure you have the money first before you try to buy something and I am like what the :furious3: ofcourse I do have the money you dum :furious3: I did not actuallly say that well I did but in my mind only. so I called my bank and asked them if there had been an atemp to withdraw money from my accunt she say not at all, so I called back and this time another guy (sounded really upset) said well if the order did not go thru there is no way I can help you, when before they (the web order dep) had traced my whole order a total of 18 items just by typing in my email address
so I got really upset and I desided not to place the order with them
thy do have good prices but their customer service SUCKS BIG TIME
