It was in Leads to Deals, but once an offer is over those threads are removed. It's all explained in the Guidelines to the section. Only active offers are left on show.

My 35mm order arrived today also, very fast free delivery.

Don't knock the pouches. I sold one on its own for £35 on eBay IIRC.

Stuart, just wondered, did you order yours on next day delivery? Im guessing so, as you received it today. Just wondered why mine is saying 19th, although I only did it on first class not next day, but even so usually it a lot less than 6 days for stuff Ive ordered on first class. Just wondering what the chances are of it turning up a bit before that

Jacqui.

When I ordered it. The order qualified for "Prime" next day delivery,,And it stated next day delivery on my delivery note in my account, But to be honest, I knew that wasn't going to happen. As when I checked the tracking details with the number given. there wasnt any, until this morning. So it was actually a two day delivery. But with such a deal, I aint complaining. Yeaterday It did show out of stock at one point. With new stock arriving on the 15th. So maybe the 19th is about right. Hope this helps.

So glad your happy too Frankie...lol

I missed out on the Amazon offer (Doh), how much did they reduce the lens down to?

Shame you missed it Paul, it was just too tempting for me! The DA55-300 was £135 & the DA35 AL was £67, both half the current Amazon 'offer' price.

Mine both arrived today (with Free postage) Shame it was dark by the time I got home to them, but hopefully I'll have the chance to play with them tomorrow

So paying the extra £3 for 1st Class wasn't necessary, because yours arrived the same day as mine and were probably ordered the same day... i.e. when the offer was posted here.

Yeah - I could have put that £3 towards a hood. Shocking
