I understand where you're coming from, but I buy all of my stuff from B&H so I'm used to this way of doing business. It just comes with the territory in rural America. We're just glad for the internet. ;-)

"Pentax has struggled to achieve widespread distribution of its full product range in some European markets in recent years." That might be due to it not supplying UK retailers with the product line. "PENTAX is committed to its existing trade partners and will continue to offer its full support in this respect." None in the UK(AFAIK) at the present time. "The PENTAX Europe store is expected to launch in 2009." Better get a shuffle on, then. By the way: I am unlikely to buy anything I cannot have a play with previously. I am also likely to be unhappy with any purchase that shows signs of anyone else having had a play. Not sure how you are going to solve that conundrum, with not having any high street players. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions. !SIG:4af885f476089116716045! -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
