Claudio, I bought the 16-45 from them earlier in the year for £209 which was the best price I could see for it at that time and it was delivered within a week of order. Haven't had any probelems with it. The prices do seem to fluctuate from one day to the next on items I've tracked.
Have recently ordered the 70 Ltd, so will wait and see on this when it arrives, although someone pointed out argos had this at a very reasonable price as well, and had I seen this I would have been tempted to buy it from them for more peace of mind.
I don't think I'd want to spend much more than that with them as I'd prefer to go through SRS or Park Cameras who are competitive and proivide the backup.

Tony,
Spooky ! (or annoying maybe)
I went straight to buy and it was out of stock on Sheffield postode when checking stock availability, for example S10 1PA but whe I tried my former postcode from Norfolk NR11 6TX it shows in stock !!
I've got one now (an expensive one) but for anyone else you may want to contact Argos if you have a similar problem to me and save yourself a few quid!
I agree comments re saving money for a lense.

Tony,
I did get an e-mail from argos to say it was back in stock a few weeks back but I picked this up 2 days after they sent it and they were out of stock again !
Have just checked it again and it still shows out of stock after keying in postcode when you go through the order process. Perhaps you beat me to the last one!
Gareth - I did try the K10 grip, it worked but felt incredibly tight screwing it on and I didn't want to damage any of the contacts by tightening it further, they're also a slightly different shape and this annoyed me when holding it (more in my mind probably than the reality of holding it !)

I've been looking for a Samsung grip for my GX20 for a number of months
for my GX20 and they're hard to come by in the UK. I did a search and to my surprise amazon now had some sold through The Mount shop.
Ordered on the 5th and arrived today (9th) very happy as I did not want to chop up the K10 grip to fit the GX20.
The price was a bit high £181 inc postage but as I've not found it in stock anywhere else (its been discontinued I believe) Im happy to have got it.
If any Samsung users were after one (hope link works)

Been lurking a while in the background, having joined up thought it best to say hello.
I have a K10 and recently upgraded to a GX20. Got a number of lenses, most recent is the 16-45 which has sent my 18-55 to gather dust ! Most photos are family related - kids etc as this is where most of my time is spent.
Thanks for all the tips I've picked up so far.
