I've been watching it drop in price, it's been about $10 every two days
for the last two weeks.
There may be another shoe about to drop from Pentax, Maybe the long
anticipated 24mp K-3.
Full frame or not, the remaining stocks of the K-5 would really have
serious price pressure applied by having the K-3, K-5II/K-5IIs twins
above it and the K-50/K-500 below it, or on the other hand maybe as the
K-5II has a street price, (actually how can you call it a street price
these days so), err, web price, only about $100 more than the K-5 had
only a couple of weeks ago.
Adorama and Amazon have been showing similar price decreases though they
seem to be following Buydig's lead.
B&H wisely decided to stop carrying the K-5 after the K-5II had been on
it's website for a couple of months, probably because of the fire sale
prices they had to unload their remaining stock of K20Ds for after the
K-7 release.

that is from where i bought for $660 in December, and i was satisfied
as to warranty concerns and indeed got a proper new camera, not a
broken down kit; however i have no experience with their customer
service and i would double check the warranty status of the seller, as
i noticed they weren't authorized for K-5 II a while back; ymmv
