We'll see if they actually ship. I got a couple - and a few spare tubes! LOL

Of course, now comes the big ticket items - softboxes, etc. I'm going to turn into Scott!

Joanna just shut me down on trying to order these she thinks I'll end up being charged for the full amount, which I consider a small risk to pay!

I doubt we'll be charged full price without them contacting us before hand to give us the option... When I saw this, I kept looking at it, wondering, is this really a strobe or is it some kind of accessory for a light. Pretty good deal either way though... if they ship...

Yeah, my guess is they'll be calling us or sending an email saying this was a mistake. Even so I ordered 3 just in case.

ok... it's on backorder, but did this say anything about the price? For $3.00 each, I'll wait.
