Noctilux availability

You literally missed the gate by two weeks.

I literally had four dealers calling me within a couple of hours of each other with availability.

Unfortunately, one was in Europe and their "shipping to the US" specialist wouldn't be available for a week. In the meantime I was told horror stories about getting it through our customs.

So I went with the dealer I could drive over a bridge and pick up in person.

 

I agree with Ashwin on Ken. He had the 3 stop ND Filter in stock for the Nocti and was a dealer that got in touch with me just after I pulled the trigger with the final dealer. I told him to please send me the Filter, on a Saturday no less. Within 20 minutes I had a shipping notice that it was on it's way. It wasn't until the end of the day that I got a Pay-Pal payment request. The filter was on my doorstep Monday. I think it helps if you know my friend Stephen Patterson.

Ken is simply the best. He sold me my first Leica. an M3, in 1973. I bought my DMR & M8 from him as well. Ken was the first Leica dealer in NYC. I don't think anyone knows as much about Leica products as Ken. He gets things done. He's a real gentleman and a man of honor.

Just two weeks ago I paid 7300USD for a brand new Noctilux in Bahrain Leica dealer. I asked if there was a special discount but they said that, the price of the noctilux in their list was around 7700USD, so it was not a big discount for the dealer.

 

I couldn't understand why, is there any policy change in the price list of Leica lenses especially after the new 50'cron?

USD 7300 for a brand new Noctilux?!? That's really very very low!

 

Can share with me the Leica dealer's contact?
