I think you'll often find that the retailers don't delay, but simply (such
as in Australia) they haven't even got the sets yet.
Having spoken a sales rep for my local BigW (think local version of
Wal-mart) November is a much more likely date than four days ago. Ben's
point is ligitimate. Perhaps if it was a post refering to the sets being
available through Shop@home now (which they're not, in Australia, shown but
"NOT AVAILABLE") then there may be reason for a diffinitive "OUT NOW" post.
On the other hand, thanks for the heads up, we'll keep a look out for them
and read the reviews here as we wait.
