bags27 Posted January 21, 2020 Share #5 Ā Posted January 21, 2020 Same thing happened with the Q2. Some on ebay were at mark-ups of close to 100%. OTOH, I've heard that the SL2 is already selling at a discount on the Far East grey market. It's just the usual, folks trying to judge demand.

sillbeers15 Posted January 21, 2020 Share #6 Ā Posted January 21, 2020 In Singapore. The asking price for a grey market imported SL2 is readily available in local photographic forum with a slight discount over the official selling price. The ebay seller must be fishing for a sucker.

adan Posted January 21, 2020 Share #9 Ā Posted January 21, 2020 On the flip side, when the M9 came out and I got one the first week, someone here on the forum did make an unsolicited offer to buy it from me for $1000 over normal price. Some people just think having money means they shouldn't have to stand in/on line with everyone else. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

IkarusJohn Posted January 22, 2020 Share #11 Ā Posted January 22, 2020 2 hours ago, Artin said: The one thing I hate is when people ask me how much does my camera cost.Ā Ā Yesterday in the hotel at the Cayman Islands, a fellow came up to me and asked me about my camera started the small talk about his wish in changing from film to digital and then dropped the question. How much does this camera cost ? Ā How do you tell someone that it costs 16,000.00 dollars for the body and one lens. Or you have over 60,000.00 dollars in your camera bag. I just smiled and said it was pricyĀ +1 I know Iām stupid. Ā I donāt need to give other people the ammunition to tell me so. 1 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaemono Posted January 22, 2020 Share #12 Ā Posted January 22, 2020 Most people donātĀ giveĀ a monkeyās these days how much the camera gear one carries in a bag or around the shoulder is worth. People can use their smartphones to take pictures and pity those who carry all theĀ weight or considerĀ them show-offs.Ā 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
