Many dealers received their first allotment of 4880's and shipped them all against pre-orders. Other dealers, who sell lower quantities, may have had units in stock, based on their first allotments, due to a lower number of initial orders. Dealers who sell at more competitive prices are certainly out of stock now. Epson is having difficulty with the supply of 3880 and 4880s because of a shortage of parts. We can only hope they resolve this issue soon.
