Arc Backorder Progress

Ordered the white home theatre surround set, arc, pair of SLs and subwoofer. 

For those thinking of ordering, i’d order with Amazon, at least you know they will only charge when it ships.

I too am getting antsy with waiting, I ordered my arc from a smaller retailer, about a month ago. They expected a shipment within 2 week and would give me a call.

Funnily enough I did get a call... but for an incidental white arc that I suppose the store just received without back ordering I guess?

But, it's the black one I'm after and it's now been a month. I'll probably follow up soon, but since I was looking online for answers as well, I honestly wouldn't be surprised if the answer is "we don't know, sir, Sonos has not given us a shipment yet."

Sounds like their smaller retailers are kept in the dark as much as those of us who ordered direct.  I can imagine that their larger retailers like Best Buy or Amazon have a little more flex than us individuals and would get their orders prioritized over ours...maybe it’ll be a Christmas gift to myself now?

actually I checked on Best Buy and they have it in stock for online orders and I placed my order says be here Friday the 13th so I don't know If I should keep my order in with Sonos or cancel it or have it as a. backup 

It’s all about the Arc I guess.  I just checked Best Buy as well (.ca).  Shows the sub in stock online and in multiple stores in my area but the Arc shows as unavailable both online or in stores...

That’s what it was showing me for the white arc here in CA but I was able to place an order for black weird but I’ll keep you all posted 

Ordered a black Arc on 10/11/2020 with an anticipated ship date from 11/13/2020— card was finally charged today and I’ve gone from Backorder to Processing. 🤗

Canada or USA?  I’m in Canada, ordered before you but I’m still backordered on Arc and Sub. 

USA. 

Looks like it's you and me in a race HT!!!
