4 months...lets think about this brainiac, in may they would have been out of last years stock, so they couldn't send you the old skis, and they were just starting production of the 08s,  all the invaders are produced in china, so they send them over in bulk on a ship...they're not just going to send 1 pair, and most companies aren't going to send you a sample pair, which is pretty much all that would be available, so basically you're getting you're skis at the same time the shops are, as the US/Can distribution center will send them to you, so stop complaining, it's not like you'd have skied them between then and now anyway.
