If you order from Onestop-Digital here (£70 ) & ask for FedEx (at extra cost but how much?) you'll have the lens in 3 days! HTH - Paul

Tried Purdy's and Walter's they are both superb in my opinion. Walters had the battery grip I ordered out within 5 minutes. Was in my hand less than 24 hours after ordering

I've used A J Purdy. Good service and staff that know what they're talking about. They're normally good on pricing, too.
