You made me take a look...
Sigma 28mm 1.8 they are selling for £195 - that also seems a good price if anybody is interested.

They've got a steal of a deal on the DA* 50-135mm as well @ £549.99 for a new one! Wow!
K-5; Siggy 10-20 f4, 30mm f1.4, 18-50mm f2.8, 70-200mm f2.8; Tammy 400mm f4, 500mm f8

DA-70mm isn't bad as well.
HOWEVER
this is the site that when they I emailed them to confirm another one of their "surprisingly good" deals, promptly increased the price and never sent a reply.

Had a look and was a bit puzzled
The 40mmLtd lens - according to the delivery restrictions can't come by Royal Mail Special Delivery [ or any of the other signed for types from Royal Mail ] so how do they get it to you ?
So just out of curiosity I had a look at the K-x - and they won't send that by Signed For so presumable Special Delivery is OK.
Now how do they rationalise that ?

Walters have a few branches near me in the South Wales area & were a Pentax pro dealer when I bought my K20d there, I'm not sure if this still applies.
Give them a call & ask is the best bet as I have noticed their website isn't maintained as well as it could be & throws up discrepancies. I could pick it up & send it on for you if you buy me the used 200mm f/2 VR for doing the favour

When you order, it's out off stock and the price goes up to £899. I know, I tried. I wonder how many other "good prices" end up the same?

Told you.
Notice all their "rather surprisingly good" prices have gone up since yesterday.

Absolute shocker if you ask me...
I was hoping to pull the trigger on a DA 40mm having missed out on one in the classifieds.
DA 40mm up £90, DA 70mm up £120, DA* 50-135 up £350...

If you can't say something nice about Pentax, you won't say anything at all.
Apparently.

Anyway, thought this might be interesting to someone, as it's a great lens at a good price.
