I make it £631 for the 200. Have I missed something?
They seem to be similar price in euros to what we have to pay in pounds. Familiar story.

The K3 plus 18-55WR comes out at £973 assuming a conservative exchange rate of 1.15 EUR to the £. Even if you allowed £25 for postage to UK that is still 'only' £1000 which implies a body only price ex postage of £900...about 10% below UK prices.

It's true as Darkmunk says..a familiar story. Some items were actually dearer than UK but most on a quick check seemed about 10% cheaper.

So postage to the UK is £19.42 ( €23 )and they want to get pay via bank transfer(international payment, £10 on top of the purchase price). And 55-300 WR will be available in January 2014.
All together it will cost you £288.80 ( €342 )so you will save over £100 comparing with SRSmicrosystem price.

I placed an order and before to send my money I'm doing some investigations ( as allways ) but for now all seems to be ok ... I think it's not a fraud.
Good deal

NO it is not a fraud they are official dealer for Slovakia. I know it as i am from Slovakia (that is why is mi English so rubbish). I have found it on Czech-Slovakian Pentax forum.
I have also made an order and got the answer about the postage and availability that i have mentioned in previous post.

I have to cancel the order as i needed the money somewhere else so cant say anything but "ccxx" can say if he received his lens. They have told me that it should be available in January this year.
