Yo!!!! :woot:

Can anyone tell me if they´ve ever seen the following lens:

Nikon/Nikkor 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 G ED-IF AF-S VR DX

Does it even exist??? I ordered me one in april, that´s like 5 months ago!!!! And i ordered it from a total of 7 stores.....and they all put me on their "waiting-list". So a few days ago i started mailing those stores to see if i had moved up on those lists or not....and there´s still 200 people ahead of me in line. 200 PEOPLE!!!! AAAARRRRGGGHHHHH!!!!! :m_whine:

So i thought...."fine...i´ll just look elsewhere" And i´ve been searching all across Europe ever since, but every online-store seems to be backordered. I´d order it from USA or Hong Kong in a heartbeat if i didn´t have to pay such ridicilous customs-fees and taxes. Kort....you know what i´m talking about. 😉

And yes....this rant has a purpose. I wanted to know if any of you kind people know of a place from where i could order this lens? If you´ve seen it in a local photostore or something.

First test for ya Coord-Kort....last time i put up a thread like this, it got deleted. So what are ya gonna do? Huh huh? LOL. :tt2:

Thanks!!!!! Have a great weekend everyone!!!!! :m_wave:

How come we say 'It's colder than hell outside' when isn't it realistically always colder than hell since hell is supposed to be fire and brimstone?
