Pentax has a new webstore where one can buy Pentax stuff online. Perhaps not the best pricewise but another option available for hard to get items.

Thanks for the news, Denis

Prices aren't cheap, but hope they'd list some hard-to-find accessories (lens caps, hoods, M42 to K adapter and etc...)


Hmm, they list the 18-250 for 515.95, abit higher than its MSRP ...

Though they never state explicitly, I think the prices are in USD.
Their offering is kind of disappointing though.
The most interesting items they are offering now are all found in the "Pentax Logo Gear" section...

 

[hamustar]

Even if USD, the prices of Kit lens is double the price in B&H. :bigeyes:

Thanks Denis.

The webstore at pentax imaging do not ship out of US. It's good to see now they have another webstore to service customer worldwide though the price is not as competitive.

Pentax webstore prices majority all more ex than other US merchants...

Can use vPost shipping address for US only shipments. Their prices probably MRSP. Who knows, prices might creep down over time. But they probably benefit from periodic rebates.

Why do you think that this web merchant is reliable?

 

[creampuff]

Good question. Have no idea how reliable it is. Just like any web merchant, it depends on your affinity or aversion to buying stuff online and unseen. Do your own due diligence. But I know of people who live far from big cities who have no qualms buying from the internet or from catalogues because they have no other choice.

Fair enough.. I was just wondering if you'd bought from them before or anything.

I think the store was opened just recently, don't think alot have bought from them already, especially considering their prices at the stage.

But I did find some cool stuff on the site:

Pentax Logo Gear

I'd love to have the Pentaxian T which is selling for 10 bucks each:

And two of these front caps too:

Anyone want to do a mass order with me ... :think:

 

[alanswan]

Keen on the t-shirt too...
But the front cap don't have my size...

Well, the 67mm cap certainly will work well on my FA*85/1.4 and FA*28-70, especially with the hoods on

 

[alanswan]

Yup... Precisely....
That's why I bought a generic 72mm one from Yodobashi to use on my Sigma 1770.

I'm keen on the T-shirt as well.

 

[fengwei]

Any one who wants to have the T-shirt, please drop me a PM

 

[alanswan]

Sent, but I also noticed on the site that they are out of stock for the T-shirt.

 

[fengwei]

Okay, I got four guys interested in the T. Hope we could get about 10 in total ...

 

[polantics]

c'mon guys, it looks good...
