I just received mine from Tamarkin last week after a 50 week wait. I've got to give those guys an attaboy, though. I ordered the lens last year during a Leica days sale at their place. The Leica days event provided 10% off. At the time there was also a $150 discount on any lens purchased. So, I saved a few bucks. Since nothing happened for almost a year, I figured they had simply sold what they got to someone who was willing to pay more. But, they called last week, told me they had finally received a shipment and asked if I still wanted it. They even honored the discounted price, no hassle. So, anyway, 12 weeks doesn't seem bad to me at all. Ernie
