Mark, I agree with you and I wasn't really upset or frustrated by that.
However, since the guy who told me that it wasn't in the shop but
actually was elsewhere figured it out from his computer, I must conclude
that it is possible to change their web site a bit. Exactly as follows:
instead of writing on their web pages "in stock" they could say "in
stock/in store" meaning that it can be bought both on line and in
person. Or "in stock/out of store" meaning my situation - available on
line but not in their outlet...

I just visited B&H last week (may be more
about it in my blog or here on the list). The web site clearly mentioned
that O-ME3 v/f magnifier was in stock. So I ordered it along with two
more items I thought I would buy this time. At the counter it became
apparent that it was in stock but some place in Brooklyn, not on this
very location.
This is a direct result of the contract law issues I mentioned in an
earlier post: Online retailers who also do business in a "brick and
mortar" store are obliged to keep separate inventories for each. It
sucks but it's the way things work currently.
