Yay! My CRT.5 has shipped!

Had a confusing conversation with them yesteday morning. I called them asking when they expected more in and they said they had one in stock right now, so I asked to talk to the shipping dept. That guy said he'd go check and came back saying all they had was the RTR version with the motor. Soooo, I asked to talk to the sales dept again and the guy there said that it was in fact the pro kit without the motor (and getting a little annoyed with me since I asked him if was sure). I then asked to speak to the shipping dept yet again and told him that the one he saw was the pro kit and the motor in the picture was simply a demo of what it would look like with a motor. Then, he went to the sales area and pulled the kit so they wouldn't sell it from under me again. Wow, talk about the right hand not knowing what the left is doing! I doubt I'll ever order from them again!

But, I still wasn't absolutely positive until I just checked and the order status is "shipped"!

There must have been more than a small amount available in the US. HH has had 4 according to GD. And the place where I got it sold at least 4 or 5. I can't imagine all the hobby stores throughout the rest of the US was shortchanged...
