Here in Sweden it will be sold for about £960
Still can't afford it right now though, but will probably buy it before the year has come to and end.
But whay are the prices for that grip so silly high?
(Havn't seen any prices of that in Sweden...)

If you're VAT registered it might be worth buying it from there

Hmm!
Pentaxuser P.L.C anyone?
Register for VAT, order from Sweden....
Or just wait until the rush is over and the price drops and the K8(?) is announced....

Yes, but where are they getting it from if they can offer a Buy it Now price of £990 (inc VAT) and SRS can't even sell it cheaper and only got their stock today. Seems very odd to me

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

WOW! - Where was that!!! : and who with? Outback Air or Boomerang Airlines? I did see one company advertising flights to Oz last week for £1...makes you think about your options
I will buy a couple of tickets and go and visit with my mate Lance for a few weeks!
Still won't buy a K-7 yet, even at Aussie pricing, as the total outlay for my K20D, DA*60-250 and DA 17-70 was under £1500!
Looks like I'll be stuck in a rut with that lot for a long time as I'm too much of a fringe photographer (mean b@st@rd!) to be an early adopter!
