Both my lens and 5DsR were out of stock in the US and CC had them. They do a high volume, but apparently not at the same velocity as B&H and Adoroma.

Good to know!
I also keep forgetting that one of the reasons i bought local was so that i could pay in cash for most of it. The wife will NEVER notice the difference between the two lenses, but she some times notice purchases of or around a grand or so. This way, i'm paying $1000 in cash, and the rest on CC. So if she sees it i can tell her that i'm selling the old one for $800 which makes the net cost of the upgrade just a few hundo. lol The games i play. She wouldn't care either way, i think i may do this to up the excitement of getting a new lens. Does that mean i have a problem?

I can't hardly remember the last time we spent that much on dinner. We don't drink so, even at swanky places, or bill is hardly ever over a hundred. If we want to really eat good, we'll usually grill some steaks.
We had my parents over for dinner a few months ago and i grilled steaks, wife baked mac & cheese and had some vegetable as well. He must have asked 4 times during that meal if we always eat like this. haha. Then the following day, he texted the both of us to tell us again how good it was. A week later he texted both of us to let us know that he's still thinking about that meal. haha HINT HINT!
