But when you click on the 'buy now' link, it just takes you to the Jessops homepage, so it's not actually available at that price.
If you were pedantic, it might be worth ringing them and saying you want to buy it at their advertised price, but they wouldn't be obliged to sell you one.

Buy a Samsung and have Pentax lenses on it? For the sake of a tenner saving it will look and feel VERY odd imo... it would seem like some kind of Pentax betrayal almost. To sum it up for mmy perspective, I don't care if Skodas are built in the same workshops as the VAG's, i'm still not going to buy one.
The above is light-hearted, but for me it just wouldn't feel right buying a Samsung DSLR that was essentially a Pentax for little to no savings. Pentax isn't just a "name", it's a mark of respect and a sign of loyalty imo.

Something to possibly bear in mind is that the Pentax branded models will most likely get better support from 3rd party raw processing software vendors. For example, Phase One does not support Samsung cameras. This may or may not be important to you.
