bigkraig Posted October 29, 2015 Share #521 Posted October 29, 2015 Advertisement (gone after registration) Sorry in advance for the rant, but I'm thoroughly fed-up waiting for the Q, and the dealer says that Leica are not playing ball at all re supplies. If there's no sign of it in the next couple of days or - at the least - if Leica don't have the courtesy to communucate something rather than nothing, I'm going to get something else. Just order one from Herrington, If I remember correctly she said they were getting 24. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

@McLeica Posted October 30, 2015 Share #524 Posted October 30, 2015 Thanks, but I'm in Ireland. Try Ffordes Photographics in Scotland. Steve Byford is a great Guy and it's closer to home. Mine took a week to arrive and I was first on the waiting list when I first enquired. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
patientlywaiting Posted October 30, 2015 Share #525 Posted October 30, 2015 Update: It seems there's one on its way and it might be ready for pick-up next week. After all this, it had better be worth the wait! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
atvrider Posted October 30, 2015 Share #526 Posted October 30, 2015 Update: It seems there's one on its way and it might be ready for pick-up next week. After all this, it had better be worth the wait! It's well worth the wait!! Leica organic quality photo's and a tool that doesn't get in the way (like a Sony with their interface). On top of that it is extremely enjoyable to shoot! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
m9photo Posted November 1, 2015 Share #527 Posted November 1, 2015 Advertisement (gone after registration) For those who placed order from Herrington the past week, is there any other updates have you received from them? I just called them again to add battery as it was cheaper than BHphoto, and according to the person - it might have some pushed back dates to the 11 ..

inseob Posted November 2, 2015 Share #528 Posted November 2, 2015 Just got a shipping notification from Herrington Catalog! I ordered on 10/27 around 2pm, chose 2-day shipping and they shipped via fedex overnight (to be delivered tomorrow). Many thanks to those who introduced Herrington Catalog! I had emailed them and they confirmed that they are a Leica authorized dealer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony_K Posted November 2, 2015 Share #529 Posted November 2, 2015 I prepaid for mine from Hunt's Photo and Video in up in Melrose (Boston) on Friday and they just called to let me know they got one in and they are shipping it out today. They are slowly trickling in, but there are not many people on their list so if you are willing to prepay, you can move to the top. I had pre-orders at B&H and Leica Miami but it seems everyone else does too and I spoke with several people who waited months from those sources. My Q should arrive on Wed. I learned about Hunt's at the Photo Expo in NYC where they always have a booth. They are a reputable store that has been in business for some time. My salesperson was Jeremy and he did a great job so worth checking out if you're looking for some alternatives. Hopefully, the shipments will start to pick up and the demand will ease.

m9photo Posted November 2, 2015 Share #532 Posted November 2, 2015 Got mine too! And I added extra battery for free shipping which cheaper than bhphoto..mine should be here by Thursday.

jfkbike2 Posted November 3, 2015 Share #534 Posted November 3, 2015 Had one on order from B&H since 6/23 and folks are getting them elsewhere in no time..., seems Leica should evaluate their distribution strategies. Anyway I'm out of the que as I canceled my order today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If everyone chooses to buy from the same place it's not Leicas responsibility to starve other distribution points to satisfy their one customer.

Anyway I'm out of the que as I canceled my order today. It's always BH and the largest (and most obvious dealers) where you have the longest wait. When you want something, look for the smaller dealers. There's always someone who has one or two any given day. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If everyone chooses to buy from the same place it's not Leicas responsibility to starve other distribution points to satisfy their one customer. I guess I agree but why are they selling to Herrington anyway who cannot be considered a "high end camera dealer" when they cannot supply their most important and consistent channels. Anyone have any idea of how many Q's they produce a month? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
satijntje Posted November 3, 2015 Share #538 Posted November 3, 2015 On German Ebay we have several new Q's for sale! John Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill W Posted November 3, 2015 Share #539 Posted November 3, 2015 On the USA ebay as well. There is one listed from a "Leica Authorized Dealer" for $5600 which is a bit over the retail of $4250. I guess they can do that but I certainly would not buy from that dealer ever.....! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dadohead Posted November 3, 2015 Share #540 Posted November 3, 2015 Got mine Friday, October 30, from San Francisco Leica. Ordered August 27th. Born on date October 16th. They said 8 weeks, took 9. Definitely worth the wait. Bon chance to everyone waiting. And, yes, B&H are always the last; same with new Canon gear as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
