[QUOTE="Danno_RIP, post: 714608, member: 34269"] Well I "preordered" this lens on August 4th from B&H. Mid September I started getting bored with the "we do not know when we can expect a shipment" line from B&H so I started looking elsewhere. I called my local brick and mortar store around the 3rd or 4th Week of September, and they said they would let me know. I went out looking on line and discovered that Dell sold Nikon so I "confirmed" that they had one in stock and could have it to me on October 4th. On October 3rd they said there was an unanticipated delay and it would not be available until October 24. Yesterday Murphy's called, (my local store), and they had one. They asked if I wanted to come and pick it up or they could ship it. I said UPS ground, and it showed up today... whoooo. Should have started with them. I will in the future. Just playing with the lens a bit as I am waiting on the new Washer and dryer... the washer let go last Friday and the Dryer is older than the washer. I was glad the lens money was already committed.... :unconscious: [ATTACH type="full" width="60%"]322880._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" width="60%"]322881._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
