Your first statement is not true. The two LBS I went to see here in QC that carry Specialized was expecting v-brake Rockhoppers. Maybe your guy didn't choose to carry the basic Rockhopper.
What's funny is that the first time I asked at one of the shops the guy couldn't find it in the binder he got from Specialized. He found it in his order summary.
Either ask him to doublecheck or call another LBS that carries Specialized.
