    Is Richard Ritter still making cameras?

    Hey guys, I emailed Richard about 3 weeks ago with an inquiry about purchasing from him, I figured 2 weeks is a good time to wait, then I called him lasts week and left a message on his voicemail.

    I know that LF takes a while, but I figured by now I would have heard from him.

    So does anyone know? Is he on an extended vacation?

    Thanks,

    ~Stone

    Try calling again. You will eventually get through to him.

    Richard was out of town recently - a trip to Peters Valley and to visit his folks in Pa. I don't know if he's back yet.

    He's definitely still making cameras in the woods of Vermont.

    In fact, he's so far in the woods that he still has dialup internet. No kidding. Faster is not available (no cable, either, and no DSL). So, for him, email is akin to torture.

    It's best to pick up the phone and call him. He'll respond once he's back.

    Is he shielded by hills from the southern sky? If not, there's always satellite Internet from HughesNet, etc. I'm not suggesting he should get it, but suspect he could if the cost were acceptable to him.

    Personally, I envy anyone able to live relatively incommunicado in a rural environment.

    Email my have ended up in the spam folder. i get about 100 pieces of spam a day and good mail sometimes ends up there.
    People who i have talked to about satellite say it great when the weather is good other then that dial up is the way to go. Mail by the post office always get to me.

    You could PM me also.

    Yes i am making camera how many do you want.

    Oh I will be back in VT by Sunday. Had to go and remind myself why I live where I do. Plus picking up Dag chemicals.

    He wants twenty cameras but only after he gets his amazing tax refund check.

    Yup! But just one.

    Actually got the letter from the IRS today that I "messed up" and are adding another $100 to my check

    So it should be here in about a week!

    I was originally looking at the Chamonix but I keep getting multiple PM's from people telling me I don't want a Chamonix and instead I want a Richard Ritter so... I owe it to myself to do my due diligence.
