Any number of online stores, no doubt.

No one had one --the "deluxe" that is ---mandoweb comes up Mandolin bros. and they had one and it's sold. Acoustic Music works has some very nice Collings mandolins in stock but the Deluxe is sold. Deluxe guitar exchange- ALL their Collings are sold.
Both Acoustic Music Works and The Music Emporium seem to have a bit of a special relationship with Collings and I'd give them a call if I had a burning desire and 12 grand in my pocket. Maybe they have one in the works. I played one once, it floored me-one of the nicest mandolins I ever came across. Another place to try is TAMCO -that's in England (The Acoustic Music Company). For some reason Collings doesn't make as many of that model as they could sell.

Thanks folks for the good friendly advice, I think I will call Collings next week and see where they are shipping a deluxe model .

Jstout, I'm selling mine over on mandolin cafe if you've not found one yet.

Not sure if you found a mando yet. The mandolin store has an MF5V on sale right now for a better price than I've seen anywhere.

Good luck
