Item # STC125 "C Mount for Video Cameras"


I hope my experience with Scopetronix is anomalous, but I ordered one

of these about 3 weeks ago and have gotten no information whatsoever

for why it hasn't shipped.  They apparently contacted the post office

on the 20th of November to notify them it was coming, but there is no

further information on whether it actually shipped.  


I've emailed Scopetronix twice in the last week and have gotten no

reply.  


I would order the Mogg adapter next time.  When they didn't have the

part in stock last year when I ordered one for the Flea, they sent me

a courtesy email informing me of that fact and telling me when they

expected to make a new batch.  In the end, I only waited a week or

two, and that was coming from Australia.
