called OP again today (no. courtesy of longko)..they feedback still no stock of the Sigma 18-50 f/2.8. She told me "alot" of people are asking for this lens so I ask why not import more if there is demand but she does not have an answer...I think their stocks comes according to availability and not according to demand. sigh..

Hey fellas,
If you're looking for a Sigma 30mm f/1.4, came across this one. There is no bids so maybe you can make him an offer! (btw, I do not know this guy!)

$970.00 (inclusive of GST) for cash purchase. I believe Boon and Company are distributors for the local agent. They carry cameras but can provide lenses if available from the local agent.

i got my FA77 from JB at price around S$940 last time,due to currency convert it's S$950-960 now but i wait for 2 month because no store even at Japan.

[longko]

JB shop can sell FA 77mm below S$970 But need 3 days to order. If you need the contact can pm me.

Who stole my K100D?

Booked a set a few days ago but when I went yesterday to purchase, OP said that ther customer who bought the first K100D set exchanged his set for mine because there was alot of dust behind the LCD .

Now must wait long long.

[night86mare]

Book must wait how long ar, mac13?

Can call and book? I will definitely have sufficient money end Apr/early May.. <3 <3 <3

K100D is definitely the best choice for 6 MGP DSLR these days, if you ask me. =)

OP shipping comes once or twice a week. So don't think so bad lah. Better wait than get a problem set mah. So when you collect yours remember check, cause their Pentax is in-shop. Anything within 10 days can exchange, else they need send back China for servicing.

Waiting for you to get yours K100D is value for money without being crippled

Send back to China..

Yeah I also can't wait to get mine... Hehe. Mmm, so I guess safe to book around 20+ April.. Perfect!

Well I called them up on Wednesday and enquired about the pricing. Since it was attractive, I booked a set as it was not in stock. The next day, I recieved an sms saying that the stocks have arrived. Since I was working and would be quite tired after work, I told them I would come on Saturday to purchase it after work.

When I reached there on Saturday, I met Lynn(who smsed me) but was told that them 'sold' the last set away already. What happened was that they only brought in two sets, which was just enough for me and the other person. The other person came first, and bought the first set, only returning on friday for an exchange because his set had alot of dust behind the LCD. They showed me that dusty set and asked if I was okie with it, and they offered to sell to me at an even lower price. I didn't want la ofcourse.

I told them that I took leave(no pay) just to purchase the camera, was a little sick and lived quite far, so I asked for a compansation. They aggred. I asked them, when would the next stock be coming in, and quantity. They answered that it would come on Tuesday, about two sets and promised to keep a set for me.

Why I said long was because I also ordered a Sigma flash, which would come later than the K100D. So I told Lynn not to call/sms me until both have arrived and is ready for purchase, becase I don't want to make 3 trips!

They asked if I was interested in the K10D dual kit lens(dig this: selling at SGD 1400++ after GST!) but was not interested.

To be honest, initially I was furious that they 'sold' away my set and wanted to scream and shout, swear and curse(like le typique Singaporean ) , but being in the service industry, I know how it feels like to be scolded/humiliated/cursed at by a customer. They were quite apologetic. I don't blame the shop. Really. And stories of them speaking only mandarin is mambo jumbo because they spoke English which was 100% understandable(I understand only English and Malay.)

Hope this post answers your question.

To be honest, I was trying hard to be funny. Really. Guess I failed.

Well anyway, I wanted to pay first on Saturday, but Lynn was against it so that I can check the set on the spot first for any defects.

And yes, she mentioned that she would be sending back the dusty set back.

You can try, but at their price, you better be fast when they tell you it is in stock. On yes, that morning, something told me to call them up, to ask if they still had the set, but I ignored that something and got retribution!

To be honest, I am kind of having second thoughts about buying the K100D, as its successor should be released this year. It is not a need to be honest.

Rather feeling funny, you fooled me by thinking you're pissed. All in good fun. The K10D dual kit price is REALLY good.

It is not a need to be honest? What do you mean?

Successor or not, it is still a good camera.. And I have no DSLR yet! So it's really "The One" for me. O poor students!

Yeah, you bet I'd just run there, even if they ask me to collect at 4 am. And wa, if they arrive earlier even better hahaha.. <3 I wish I can fast forward time!

The K100D is not something that I would use to make a living, but more of hobby.

Sorry guys, can don't OT in this thread? I'm trying to keep it to price discussion rather than OT banter.
