HI All, I want to buy a couple of lenses. I've priced them locally and via mail order from B&H. If I buy locally it will cost me an extra AU$900 (after GST, shipping and currency exchange, etc). That's over half a K7!
The disadvantage is a USA warranty so I would have to ship it over if anything went wrong. Has anyone ever had a lens go faulty under warranty? I've had 2 cameras go faulty under warranty (Super A and *istD), but never a lens and I've owned more of them. I like to support my local traders and importers, but $900 is a lot of money and for something that is not likely to go wrong having an international warranty is not much of a justification for spending it. Does anyone have reasons for me spending money locally in Australia rather than in the USA? -- Leon -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
