The local price here from the Pentax importer/distributor is GBP594 inc tax.

On top of that you have shipping and taxes to pay if you buy from the UK.

I would hazard a guess that SRS are paying more than that from Pentax UK who are at best, box shifters.

GBP725 is a fair price all things considered.

Great set with the last as my pick of the bunch. I like the "clothes don't" sign in #10.

Me thinks there's a little bias here Smeggy. I looked at your link and another link within that thread brings up another side by side test where you say:

"No one would be able to identify each lens without a side by side comparison, as there's very little difference. Neither lens would be a handicap to "getting the shot" - I'd be happy with either model"

I applied the bolding of your comments. In point though, you can't say that the Siggy Art blows away the 31mm just based on a single test when in another test the difference is "very little".

I updated my Oz maps on my TomTom and realised they charge VAT, even to customers outside of the EU. After some polite emails, they refunded the VAT.

Awfully nice people.

It does Stan. Cheapest items are Alcohol, gold and tobacco. All of the electronic stuff is quite pricey and cheaper on the local streets.

Hmmm, flight to Oz or a new K3

I'll take the K3 as I'll get change from my grand

That you would Alan. At GBP761 for a K3 in Oz less the 10% GST when you leave, so at GBP685 you certainly would have change.

Now:
E ticket-yes
Passport-yes
Kettle on for another cuppa before leaving to the airport....

I'd love to visit Perth, and Western Australia, but the thought of the flying really puts me off (quite apart from the expense that is:wink

Enjoy your glass of gnats pee in Dubai.

It's either Heineken or very badly pulled draft Guinness Gwyn.

The wife has just checked prices in March and its around GBP880 return from Newcastle to Perth with Emirates. I flew KLM for many years but to Oz it means changing carrier.
