I'm certainly going to stick it out and wait for my ELA to arrive (I'm already 6 weeks in) but I think it is somewhat disingenuous to post "10-12 weeks lead time" on the order page for the ELA when Super-T knows very well that lead time is in fact closer to 24 weeks. That's a long time to have ~$200 tied up with nothing to show for it.

I know the ELA is a good mod but had I known I would be waiting up to 6 months before seeing it I probably would have passed and bought a different mod of similar quality and it would be in my hand right now.

Like what? I would like to buy one of those too.

I think the guy is just frustrated, and venting a little bit. No harm done. We've all been there at some point.

Frag I'm not frustrated at all. I'm simply expressing my opinion since this thread is a discussion about the ELA.

I can see that everyone seems to be ok with the practices I detailed earlier and I respect that.

I'll be back when my ELA arrives so I can gush ad nauseum.

Cheers.

Those shiny ELAs are great! With mine I have an extra set of satin rings coming; I'll be able to make every permutation.

When mine comes in we can have a permutation competition ...
... extender tube, extra rings, couple of custom transition rings, kiklet and several tips including Tanbur :)

Hey, just to touch on the whole production estimate thing. Back in December, when ELA pre orders launched, the estimate was originally 6-8 weeks and being in the first couple waves of shipments, it still took me 6 months to receive mine.

Was I upset? NEVER!!

I've said it before a few hundred pages back and I'll say it again...

This is a pre-order. Not a purchase. You put money down to guarantee yourself a product that has yet to be produced. If you can't handle the ideology behind that, there are plenty of mods on this earth that can offer instant gratification.

All of us know that when we put our money down for an ELA (or two or three), that we were making an investment in the highest quality, best made and precision engineered telescopic mod offered in this entire world! No matter how long it takes. Nothing comes close to ELA. It's worth every penny and month, week, day, hour and minute it takes to get to our door.

I hate to say it but you ELA'ers are in for a LONG wait now..

This same thing happened in the S6 thread.. There were 2 or 3 users who kept posting the same thing over and over and over and over and over again..

Complaining about the wait..

It flat out ruined the thread and put a quick halt to all the fun we other users were having..

I hate to say it, but you might be in for a fun'less, stress filled, and down the drain thread form here on out..
