I've bought my D300, a 70-200mm f2.8VR, a 24-70 f2.8 ant a couple of EN-EL4 (from hahnel) and a BL-3 and a cahrger for the batteries.

The D300 and the 70-200mm came in a week, and I've benn waiting for the 24-70mm for a month now, and the battery dor and the charger there's no prespective for how much time it will take. And I'm buying directly from the distributer here in Portugal. They say that it's Nikon fault and that they can't do nothing about it, but I'm not so shure.

So where did you get your BL-3? And do you now a good place to buy the charger? Do you now if there's any non Nikon charger for it? Because Nikon is so expensive!

Please help me on this.

I'm not sure if I would trust one of those random places... there is one available at Amazon.com, but I'm also not familiar with the seller (although you could peruse other reviews of the seller and see what you think). Adorama doesn't currently have them in stock, but you could call them and see what they have to say about when they expect one in. Not sure about shipping costs given your location, but they seem to be charging less anyway and are a very reputable seller that has always exceeded my expectations. www.adorama.com I've also heard great things about bhphoto (www.bhphoto.com) but have never personally used them. The fact that reputable places seem to be out of them makes me even more wary of random non-reputable places, and question whether they even have the item in stock in the first place. Good Luck!

Don't gamble with unknown sellers; I guess the best you can do is be patient, as hard as that is. And keep checking B&H -- don't rely on their "we'll email you if they come in" system, because by the time you respond they may already be gone again.
