IDX Promo?

K. Forman · April 26th, 2006, 03:56 PM

Better yet, any sort of IDX deal to come with the 250? What about the lens? I read somewhere, the price of $8000 doesn't include a lens.

Bought my camera a month ago from Tapeworks texas and still have not recieved my batteries. I missed you carl at NAB by a few seconds. Just got back to AZ and my feet hurt.
I hope my batteries come soon.
I also sent mine thru the Post office but next day with confirmation and it was recieved at least through the eyes of the post office.

Joe,

I bought mine same time frame as you from Texas Tapeworks as well. I overnighted my certificate in and talked to JVC 2 weeks ago. I was told that mine would ship shortly, but I still haven't seen anything. I was hoping that there would be a box waiting for me today when I got back from NAB. I plan on calling JVC tomorrow for an update.

Hey Carl- I got in on the IDX promo at the end of March, (sent in my certificate on the 27th). I had heard through the grapevine that JVC ran out of the IDX promo kits and was waiting for a new shipment from the manufacturer before they could fill all of the 11th-hour promo orders.

Is that pretty accurate- or should I be getting worried if I don't have my kit within another couple of weeks?

Carl Hicks · April 27th, 2006, 08:37 AM

That is accurate. There were a lot of "11th Hour" claims, which depleated our supply. More are due in mid May.

Regards, Carl

Jake Strickbine · April 27th, 2006, 09:10 AM

Thanks Carl! You da' man.

Carl, I just talked to Mary in the NJ office and she told me that same thing and that you had called to check the status of my kit. Thanks for checking up on it. Hopefully IDX can come through with the order soon. I have a shoot in May that I was hoping to use the camera for. I will wait and see what happens.

Thanks again,

Dan Weber

Who do you check with to make sure all the paper work made it? I know there is a back log but I just want confirmation they got my certificate?

Martin Wellhoefer · April 27th, 2006, 05:19 PM

Lucky me. I just received my battery kit yesterday - 4 weeks. Not too bad.

Hi Joe,

Your claim was entered on 4/5, and we're just waiting on more supply to come from IDX. Many "last minute" claims depleted our supply and IDX's.

Regards, Carl

I sent my claim in on March 26th I got my system about a little over 2wks later JVC was great about it, eager to please as you can see on this forum. I to was told they were out and waiting for the next shippment from IDX. Later that week, shortly after I recieved my IDX system. Great Job JVC You are really working at customer service I am sold and very pleased I bought this camera.

Daniel Weber · May 1st, 2006, 01:02 PM

I bought mine on the 30th, but due to UPS screwing up the shipping, I didn't get it until almost a week later. As soon as I opened the box I sent the certificate in via FedEx overnight.

Guess that I just missed the last of the batteries. I guess you can't complain when your getting it for free!!!!

Hopefully it will come by the end of May.
