When I spoke to them they said that supply was trickling down to their largest distributors. I would actually just wait for a few more weeks then check out Amazon. Typically, the price should be not more then $140 for a 5 gallon pail. Right now it seems their retailers are price gouging. I typically pick up a 5 gallon pail for less then $127. Reference these part numbers when you are buying: Royal Purple Motor Oil

Oil Filters were not manufactured by them since they did not meet the API SM or better requirements on their motor oils as required by BMW. But since they recently have exceeded the specs with API SN, I think that they have something in the works soon to be released so we just have to wait (I was also looking for one). I will ask Chris and see what he says.
