My problem wasn't with the camera dealer that Marc was dealing with as much as it was with the dealers (or any kind) in general. I get real tires of people holding themselves out as any xyz dealer, and then not being able to produce. As 53 years of age I no longer believe "It's not available" or "I can't get it" or "It can't be done" or "it's on back order...forever". Those statements fall into the same catagory as, "Ofcourse I'll respect you in the morning". It's like General George Patton said to one of his officers, "If you can't get the job done I'll find somebody who can." With today's telephone service and FEDEX delivery you can get almost anything you want as fast as you want it. This is not to say that every dealer should have everything in stock all of the time. But, there is no excuse for prolonged back orders. Regards, Bill Erfurth Evergreen, CO
