Coupon code for Really Right Stuff TVC-23 Versa Series 2 Tripod?

I'm getting ready to make my purchase, any chance are there any coupon codes for Really Right Stuff out there?

BTW how come B&H doesn't sell Really Right Stuff? All they have is the used stuff?

i don't think so. Good luck with that. If you do find one, let me know I'm after one of their tripods and heads. It was either them or Gitzo.

I believe RRS markets their own products. My guess is their capacity is not great enough to have them carried through a large marketer like B&H.
B&H buys and sells used gear.

I'm currently shopping for a Really Right Stuff tripod and asked rep at B&H and he replied that he wasn't sure the reason. I think the company makes a low quantity of these, but the ones that they do manage to make are very well made. Everything is made in the USA.

Oh I can tell you that one. It would cause them to have to raise their prices. So that is what I was told from a RRS rep.

I respect companies like this, keep the consumer in mind. Keep the prices as low as they can be and cut out the middle man.

you are correct. Really Right Stuff builds a high quality product that isn't mass produced like other tripod companies, as a result their production numbers are lower. Because of quality parts they use, product cost are higher than most tripods on the market. So... the B&H's and Adorama's need to make their $$, Really Right Stuff has chosen to sell direct to keep the cost down for the consumer.

That explains why their stock always shows back ordered. I've been to their site a few times and the tripods aren't available. So I'm guessing we need to go on a waiting list.

You won't ever find coupon codes or these on sale. I will say, when you make the purchase and you first set your camera on top of one of these. You'll appreciate where your money just went to.
