where to find them in stock?

Might help if you had a location, even a country.

I am also in Texas and looking. Seems like online is the only option. $110 and limited on Amazon. Actually it's Cameta Camera, who recently tried to pull a fast one on me but I will not go in to that. Hopefully Sterlingtek has these soon.

Thanks Robert, seems that $110.00 is a little high.
I remember a friend mine in California sells them
for $ 60.00 when he can get them in.

$88 from Amazon right now: http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B001KELVS0/ref=dp_olp_new?ie=UTF8&qid=1245730214&sr=8-1&condition=new

That's Amazon themselves and not one of the other sellers and they appear to be in stock.

Edit: on second look, maybe they're on back order. But still, it's a good price.

Saw one today in my Amazon "gold box" for $83. Placed the order, and it is supposed to be delivered in about 3 weeks. We'll see...

I just got an email from Amazon, telling me that my order shipped. Took them about a week since I saw the 5D-II battery in my "gold box". Ended up paying $83 and some change for it.

Colbyb25,

I am in Corsicana about 50 miles south of Dallas. The only
large camera store in Dallas that I know of is Arlington Camera.
I have not called them yet.

Look at Adorama's website and BH Photo. There prices are generally excellent.

Adorama and B&H were the first two stores that I called
both were out of stock. I will try them again.

I got mine from Competitive Cameras...

Not sure if they have any in stock now, but they had some when no one else had them in back in January. Worth a phone call atleast...
