You won't likely buy one on eBay and get it in your hands in three days.
If eBay is really an option, why not just wait and get the camera you sound
like you really want -- the PZ-1p?
As for the zx-m, I have a personal philosophical difference with having a
plastic lens mount. I won't expound on it for fear of starting another
plastic/metal war, so suffice it to say that a plastic lens mount for
metal-based lenses is not a purchase choice _I_ would make. Especially when
there are other perfectly servicable manual bodies of other brands that
mount Pentax lenses available for less money.
hope that helps,
