Except that I think they'll ask to see the receipt. Today the lens to which it corresponds arrived. I can't blame Leica for this delay; UPS delivered it to the wrong address and it took this long for the recipient to get around to bringing it to me. My M8 came with a certificate good for a discount on one lens, and this is the one I ordered. That was half a year ago and I had forgotten all about it. Since it wasn't technically something that I had ordered (it was being sent to me under a special program) there was no order number or tracking number that I could have used to locate it. But now it has located me, and I'm glad. This lens is so small and light compared to the 50 I've been using all these years (Nocti). Tra la. Brian Reid
