RRS CF Tripods worth the Money?

Nice thanks guys finally pulled the trigger, hoping it ships soon

Please keep us posted with how long it takes to get. RRS seems sold out 95% of the time and never has lead times listed, but always encourages just backordering. Been curious how long it takes to actually receive when you backorder it.

When I ordered mine (after Thanksgiving) it showed backordered and I got it in about a week. If I remember right they told me to order it and they would get it right out to me. They did.

I don't know if that is common, but if someone is worried about it I would suggest calling them. Their customer service / sales team really helped me out.
