kivis Posted January 27, 2022 Share #1 Posted January 27, 2022 Advertisement (gone after registration) In 2012, the Leica M Type 240 was introduced selling for $4200 USD new. Then in 2014 the Leica M-P Type 240 was introduced with small but substantial upgrades, selling for $7499 USD. What the Hell? That is a huge increase in price. Can anyone explain this?

alan c. davis Posted January 27, 2022 Share #2 Posted January 27, 2022 Yes, the type 240 was not $4200. Where did you get that price from? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pippy Posted January 27, 2022 Share #5 Posted January 27, 2022 The price in sterling is quoted as being £5,559. At today's rate that works out at $7,432.90...so a whopping $67 price hike... Philip. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LocalHero1953 Posted January 27, 2022 Share #9 Posted January 27, 2022 Another 30 secs of my life I won't get back😁. I clicked on this thread wondering why someone was responding to a thread from 2014....... Such are the little confusions of casual internet browsing. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
