Shimano 6700 12-30

Does anyone know where I can get a new Shimano 6700 12-30 cassette?

I think Harris Cyclery has them:

Oops. They just have Tiagra.

I would be surprised if anyone has them. I was told a couple of days ago, by a representative in customer service at Shimano, that they are not available now, with an estimate of 4-5 weeks from the time of my call.

Someone must have access. Saw one for sale on ebay; however, I was unwilling to pay $25 for shipping from Israel.

If all you are looking for is the ratio, get the Tiagra one..wee bit heavier is all, good wear and performance on this consumable.

Not sure if Shimano is doing this on the 30-tooth cassettes, but I've been shopping for a 28, and the Ultegra comes with 21/24/28-tooth inside sprockets, versus 23/25/28 on the Tiagra.
Since I'm getting this for an uphill time trial, the smaller 3-tooth final jump on the Tiagra is preferable, and I can live with the extra 2-tooth jump further down the cassette; your needs may be different.
Plus I'm happy trading the few grams extra weight for the cost savings on a part I'll use once or twice a year.
