How long does one wait for the Lee Big Stopper

[J.R.]

Hi Guys,

I'm having a frustrating experience with the Lee Big Stopper. I've been waiting for what seems like an eternity.

Anyone faced with a similar situation? How long is the waiting on average?

The only other option available is the Hitech 10 stop ND - but I've decided against it because it is reported to have color cast issues.

I've been waiting for one and they seem to get shipments monthly at BHphoto. It's always too late by the time I get to the site. :/

I suggest waiting for the Big Stopper rather than going for the Hitech option. I also suggest looking around all the other retailers in your particular continent... I reside in Europe, most retailers all over were back-ordered, but you can usually find one who has 10 stop ND from Lee available from stock. Got one within 3 days from Ireland.

Thanks! Pity Lee doesn't have any dealers / resellers in India. I guess I have to put my trust in BHPhoto and wait.

I got mine from eBay.

The seller doesn't ship to India ... BTW $ 235? It's only $ 140 at BHPhoto.

I was on the notification list for over a year at B&H. Finally gave up and purchased on eBay at a retail price point a couple months ago. It's amazing and wish I didn't wait so long...

I have 6 pcs coming in that's not taken yet, let me know if anyone's interested...

I bought the B+W 77mm ND 3.0-1,000X at amazon and I am pleased with it. I use it in tandem with a variable ND to increase it to over 14 stops. I am quite pleased with it.

We appreciate the frustration and wish Lee would send more and send them more frequently.

Thanks Henry ... When do you expect them to be available next?

I thought I was the only unlucky one ... if I'm not wrong the first time I wanted to buy was in 2010 ... since Jan 2009 I've made 17 purchases from B&H worth over $22000, but whenever I go to order the LEE Big Stopper Filter they never seem to have it ... even today it still says "Temporarily out of stock". Even Adorama & Amazon also don't have it ... I don't know if it really sells that fast or LEE just does not produce them in decent quantity.

I ordered one and about 6 months later it was shipped to me.  Be patient or plan for next year

Not sure what the hassle is but I have a brand new one never used. It's in the case and perfect, I did I think throw away the wrapper. Send me an offer, I'll take Paypal and pay shipping if I accept your offer.
