I’ve been trying to buy a DXG USA DXG-5B1V HD DXG Sportster 1080p HD Underwater Camcorder for a couple of weeks now. I wanted to use it on this cruise I’m going on in the beginning of June. But every store (online or not)says it’s “NOT AVAILABLE” or “BACK ORDER”. Literally EVERY website. Not even this website. The DXG website doesn’t feature any SPORTSTER cameras AT ALL. Has it been discontinued? Will any Sportster be available before June?

Hi Roman – The Spotster line is one of DXG’s newest products and is not available in stores yet. We anticipate the first shipment and availabilities to occur within the next few weeks. I am trying to get a confirmed availability date and will get back to you shortly.

Hi Roman – Unfortunately, I do not think that the Sportster will be available in time for your cruise in early June. We are anticipating closer to mid to late June for the products to be available on DXG’s online store and in other retailers. Thank you for considering DXG and I’m sorry that we’re missing your business this time.
