You can sign up for email notification for when they get in stock. I had to try 4 times before I got a set ordered. You have to pay a penny each and $5 for shipping, I ordered 3 when I finally had a chance. You can also go to the Rosco website and look for the sign-up form for a free book. Derek

There are also other companies that make gels, so you can try them. I got a set from Apollo, and I actually prefer their gels to Rosco's (more durable, slightly larger), although you don't get nearly as many of them. You can sign up on their website for samples as well. Thanks. I'll try these places. anshu wrote in post #5649784 I dont know where you are in TN but here are some rosco dealers Stagelight Tennessee 2901 Armory Drive, Suite 106 Nashville, TN 37204 615-244-5300 www.stagelight.com Bandit Lites 2233 Sycamore Drive Knoxville, TN 37921 865-971-3071 www.banditlites.com Bandit Lites 1600 J.P.
