Here in Denmark the going rate is $80 compared to the $30 from POTN shop, so the choice was made with no second decission. The "cleon" design is a genric design that has been rebadged by Phottix, you should be able to get it on ebay for less than 20 bucks http://cgi.ebay.com …motes&hash=item45f3e5d288 1Dx, 1DM4, 5DM2, 7D, EOS-M, 8-15L, 17-40L, 24 TSE II, 24-105L, 50L, 85L II, 100L, 135L, 200L f/2.8, 300L f/4, 70-200L II, 70-300L, 400Lf/5.6

Three quickrelease plates.. Who would have thought they would mess up an order like that...  On the other hand, paying $3 for a quickreleasee plate isn't the most expensive  I think you must be ahead in the transaction, which quick release plates are they ? 1Dx, 1DM4, 5DM2, 7D, EOS-M, 8-15L, 17-40L, 24 TSE II, 24-105L, 50L, 85L II, 100L, 135L, 200L f/2.8, 300L f/4, 70-200L II, 70-300L, 400Lf/5.6
