Re: *istD with DA 16-45 in Adorama!!!

 Body alone is more expensive.  Must be an error.  If I buy it at that 
 price, will they honor their price?  I'll try...  But too nice to be 
 true...
 
I think thay should honour it, anyway you can try - at worst they won't 
sell it to you :-) I think this is imported (gray market) item. This means 
the warranty is handled exclusively by Adorama, not by Pentax USA.
I must say, that it is a sign, that *istD sell well. To date Adorama 
didn't usually have imported Pentax items, while there were many for C, M, 
N. And I suspect, that falling *istD prices could be a sign, that we will 
see baby D soon.

 it's not listed on the BH site yet.
 
Adorama mentions nothing about Pentax USA warranty, so this must be 
imported item - warranty honoured only by Adorama!

BH does gray market for many things, including some Pentax items. certain
things are not listed as gray market even though they are. B+W filters are
one such item.

It was an error.  This is what I got from them today:

Hi, Andre
you ordered pentax digital outfit for 1324.95
above price is an error.. correct price is1724.95
kindly advise if you want for
1625.00 SPECIAL
Thank You
I will let it go as a $50 shipping fee to Canada and brokerage fees 
would renders this kit as expensive as what Simon's Camera will be 
selling it for, probably within a month.  And I may appreciate the 
Pentax Canada warranty.  (Thanks for pointing out that this is a grey 
market item.)

They list the lens at $429, so if thats the real price for the combo, 
that would put the body at sub $1K.  Must be an error.
