I missed this and I don't like colour of the K7.

I did notice this statement in their T&C's

Acceptance of your order and the creation of a legally binding contract between us will only occur when we send you an email confirming your order has been despatched. Alternatively, we may decline all or part of your order for any reason, in which case we will immediately refund you via PayPal.

I'm sure ebay/paypal will beg to differ !

I think there has been a monumental cock up somewhere and someone has applied a discount to every item they are selling rather than maybe one or two. I honestly don't think I will get the camera or lens .. would like to be proved wrong though.

What's gullible about it Jack?

I'm covered bt my credit card and I'm covered by Paypal/Ebay

If I don't receive it I get a refund, if I do then I am happy.

Are the grapes that sour in Spain atm?

Check the seller's other items. A couple of hours ago there were hundreds of items, many with images that did not match the item described.

Now, the seller has no items for sale.

Yup, saw that last night.
As I said, don't think we will get anything but worth a punt.

Hopefully it wont be a box of stickers.

I agree with Mike and regret not buying as a reflex action. Sounds like a total cock up the seller's end now's it's just a matter of seeing what they do with the orders placed.

If anyone is still interested there is still (13:15 today) one used (refurbished?) K7 available for £461.00 inc postage and 3 month warranty.

Me - I'm still content with my GX10 and K20D and would rather invest that kind of money in (towards) new glass.

Last sales where at 9.43pm last night.

I've received Feedback from them for the 3 small items I bought (photo frame, CF Card, small case) so I expect they are in the post

They are still getting a lot of feedback coming their way.

Somebody got a Canon 450D with Kit Lens ex display for £110 inc perfect box and contents

You have to make allowances for who your dealing with They could have sold all this stuff for the same prices in the shops instead of going through this expensive exercise. It seems when the clear stuff in the shops even though the packagings tatty, they expect people to buy with a 5% discount

What I find strange is that if you look at their completed items then they had hundreds of items remain unsold and loads of them all at the same end time. Almost as if Ebay pulled the plug?? How could they go from having a huge amount to none almost immediately?
