Item for Sale
Pentax K-1

Asking Price
1,851.00 USD

Item Location
Oakland, California (United States)

Item Description
I decided to buy my K-1 from a local camera store. I have a second one purchased from B&H arriving on 5/9/16. I do not need two bodies. I was planning on returning the B&H one, but it occurred to me that another forum member, who cannot get one quickly, might want this one. I am asking only the original purchase price from B&H plus the PayPal fee. The original receipt will be included. Shipping will be the actual shipping cost (USPS Priority Mail with tracking and insurance), which I can calculate based on your zip code or destination country. I also purchased the Pentax extended warranty which I will sell for the actual cost. The camera was pre-ordered and paid for on 3/23/16, so if you decide to buy the camera and want the extended warranty, you would need to buy this one since it was purchased within the 30-day purchase window which begins on the purchase date (in this case 3/23/16 since it was purchased via PayPal). Please send me a PM if you are interested in the camera. I will not accept payment until after the camera arrives and I confirm that there was no damage during shipping. I will be picking up the package on 5/9. The warranty, which is a special order item, is scheduled to arrive on 5/11. The receipt for the warranty will also be included. I would ship the camera on 5/10/16 without the warranty, or on 5/12 with the warranty.

That was quick, wasn't it? Here was I thinking it would take months if not years, but no! Though the circumstances are a bit unusual, and I can understand OP's desire to support the local business now that they have it.

Except when the local store doesn't come to the party as regards gear availability.

That's when I went to B&H. The sad part is that even with import charges and the US/CDN $ disparity, B&H were slightly cheaper.

I don't think the buyer can claim warranty, if ever needed. Just a thought!

Second thoughts from a Pentax-hoarder-in-the-making?

Lol. I definitely do not have the means to hoard K-1 camera bodies, hence either a market place sale or an RMA from B&H. Just doing my part to insure that newbies to photography get a hands on chance to see that Canon/Nixon/Sony are not the only choices out there. I doubt I would have known about the Pentax k-10D if our local (and since closed) Wolf Camera had not had one sitting on their shelf when I went to buy my first dslr.
