Lesson learned - getting from official Samsung online store is not always the best option 😂
actually, i would still think buying from Samsung online store would still be a better option as it should provide a unique proposition to the loyal samsung customer. However, this time Zfold series demand is really overwhelming, and hence the delay of stocks. i believe Samsung has already distributed the allocation to each of the dealers accordingly. Besides, Courts pre-order happened pretty late, around end August & early September, which resulted the balance of stocks in Courts.

If only I have known earlier, I would have gone with Courts . I ordered from Harvey Norman on 11 Sept. But till now no news.
What color fold 3 did you buy?
I initially wanted to get from Samsung online store cause i traded in one of my old device to get the additional RM200 discounts. But when I get that done, Samsung Online already out of stocks, I thought of not buying already cause of the long wait, then Courts was doing a RM198 off promo during 9.9, so i went with Courts.

Actually the worst option. They just prioritised other platforms/provider/telco.
I dare not to say Samsung prioritized other platforms/dealers. It's more like these allocation has been done before the launch i guess?

Actually you are lucky enough. Some buyers bought s21
preorder from courts got to wait 2 months until cancel order.
Good to hear that. You must be get the silver. Right?
I didn't opt for courts online because their payment got no installment.
ADD ON: Are you sure not going back to candy bar phone?

.. I am still thinking keep folding the phone open close open close is quite tedious... I am not sure if I will get used to it.
WOAH! I didn't know that. I guess i was pretty lucky cause i do see the SKUs being very funny at first, i see some SKUs listed as pre-order, some as add-to-cart. Yes, i went for Silver ,256g. For now, i am okay with the front cover, not to say it's the best option, but i like to hold the phone with full grip. And S' Plus series and onwards, i find it very difficult to reach to the edge of the phone. For now, i will stick with ZF3 unless, the durability is still a key problem/concern *touchwood*
