Never known any other industry have this acceptance for it, but all music stores seem to think it's ok to promise quick delivery, take your money and then say it'll be a week or something before they get it in stock.
Defeats the object of online shopping if you have to ring up and speak to them to make sure they actually have an item you can buy.

Happened to me recently when I ordered some music software for the school at which I work. After half a week of waiting, the status turned to "out of stock" . Very disappointing. After an angry email, it actually arrived quite promptly.
