Yes the bushings should be received this week, but the qty is very limited. If you are looking for another solution and have a lathe, making them is not hard our drawing is on the web.
http://www.revrobotics.com/wp-conten...1029-DR-00.pdf Just start with a piece of 1/2 hex. To make the eccentric hole take it to a drill press or mill.
Another option for construction is drilling out 3/8 bolts. The amount of center offset is not that critical as long as you have enough flexibility that it can engage. For the concentric side, just use a 3/8 bolt and drill out the mounting plate.
Lastly another option is to buy the ones from Bishop-Wisecarver. They are more expensive, but available right now if you need them. The REV v-groove bearing system is compatible with their "Size 2" system. You might need to add a washer or spacer to get the alignment correct, but they will work.
Eccentric bushing - BWC Part number - BX2SS Price - 8.54
Concentric Bushing - BWC part number - B2SS Price - 4.18
I am sorry specifically about these bushings, 100% of them arrived to me out of spec from our mfg(so the bearings wouldn't fit), they are replacing them with new bushings but in the meanwhile we are re-working them (I am literally standing a lathe working on every single one).
