Jessops is also very close to going under. The Ritz bankruptcy in the U.S. left Nikon and Canon holding the bag for $27 and $14 million, respectively. My bet is that Pentax effectively dumped Jessops because it wouldn't extend them credit.
Pretty soon, none of us will have nearby B&M stores in which we can handle new cameras <sigh>.
