On the item page it shows "No sales tax collected in CA". when I go through the check out process no tax is added. Are they reporting to the states in another manner maybe so they can get you a tax time? Recently, I received a form letter from BH Photo saying they now provide customer names and the taxable amount spent with BH to the Washington State Department of Revenue. I was given the choice of either paying the sales tax to the state voluntarily by a deadline that expired the day before I received the letter or I could expect to be audited and fined by the state. BH may have some legal obligation to provide such info to Washington. If so, BH also had an obligation to disclose this fact to purchasers up-front—at the time of purchase. It will be a long time before I do business at BH again. If you are ordering from BH and not paying sales tax.up-front, I would ask if they plan to rat you out, too.

Blackwood Posted May 5, 2019 Share #363 Posted May 5, 2019 Anyone in the UK got their Q2 recently? I've had an order in since March but they are still saying 2 to 3 months for delivery. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rexcamera Posted May 5, 2019 Share #364 Posted May 5, 2019 Heard in US that Q2 supply is limited due to manufacturing/quality assurance issues. Early Q2’s Will need firmware update so probably worth waiting for early problems to be resolved. Unlikely that normal Q2 supplies until late 2019/2020 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
aldux Posted May 5, 2019 Share #365 Posted May 5, 2019 I'm in France, I've ordered one the 18 March, and received it 3 days ago. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NiclasS Posted May 5, 2019 Share #366 Posted May 5, 2019 Ordered it thursday morning picked it up thursday afternoon. Had unbelivable luck finding one in stock. All other stores here in Sweden has a waiting list. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlikely that normal Q2 supplies until late 2019/2020 Sounds like an unfounded rumour to me - All Leica models up to now have had supply problems initially. A small factory cannot invest for high initial demand, and hand-assembly cannot be ramped up and down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giguchan Posted May 5, 2019 Share #368 Posted May 5, 2019 Agreed. Can't rush a Leica! Some might wish they could though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They rang me last week (28/4) to say they had a single Q2 arriving and it was mine if I still wanted it. Seems they are starting to come through but only in very small numbers. Not it had much time to play yet but from my short experience it’s worth a wait. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thoughtandtheory Posted May 6, 2019 Share #371 Posted May 6, 2019 I ordered one from Focus Camera and they're getting about one to two a month unfortunately so I probably won't get one until Fall Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't really block the image, and I figured it would be a loooong time for repair right now, so holding off to send it in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

With all the weather sealing they talk about it must have been during assembly. So sorry for you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sturkel Posted May 7, 2019 Share #377 Posted May 7, 2019 JUST as an FYI if you are looking for batteries for the Q2 service photo in Baltimore has them in stock I just picked up one today, they have seven left. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toutsuite Posted May 7, 2019 Share #378 Posted May 7, 2019 Just picked up my Q2 from the Leica store here in LA, and cancelled my B&H order. Hope that helps someone else on the list. According to the staff at the store, Wetzlar can produce 60 Q2s a day, so I wouldn’t expect any massive shipments to the bigger retailers any time soon. Also picked up a spare battery. Those seem to be coming in a little more quickly now. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yuhau Posted May 8, 2019 Share #380 Posted May 8, 2019 I wonder how many duplicated orders are there around the world. It seems a lot of people have placed orders from multiple vendors . I'll be visiting Leitz Park towards the end of this month. Just want to try my luck to see if a Q2 is available. Keep my finger 🤞. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
