Where to find FA Limiteds in Europe?

coloseu · 02-25-2009, 07:06 AM

I´m having a very hard time to find the FA limiteds selling in a reputable website in Europe. I saw them on a german website but the prices asked where insane!
For those of you who live in Europe and got them on-line where did you get them from? I´m having a very hard time finding them and I wouldn´t want to go for the DA Limiteds instead just because I can´t find the FA anywhere!

Please give me a little help in this matter.

I don't know if it's .com or .co.uk but they have good prices and few members got some stuff from them without any troubles.

Thank you for your reply. I already knew them and unfortunetly they only shipp within the UK... and as I´m from Portugal

SRS will ship to Portugal but the automated system won't deal with non-UK addresses, hence you'll need to email them or give them a call. Very good company to deal with.

I dont know any website in Europe neither, I would search on ebay for a power seller in case you need new lenses but I trust on second hand ones, specially sellers on this forum, you can find almost any FA limited with a little patience, they appear sooner or later. Keep in mind that the person who owns one of them usually knows how good they are and they treat them like a jewel so it is easy to find mint condition ones.

Good luck on your search.

I recently ordered from www.warehouseexpress.co.uk

With the current pound weakness and considering, that they have a 35 Pound Sterling (not weight!) postage fees limit for the delivery inside Europe, I can only recommend them (other UK sellers charge much more for shipping in Europe).

In Germany the best places for buying Pentax are:
TeKaDe - Deutschlands und Österreichs Pentax Shop Nr. 1
Foto-Palme: Willkommen
Foto Erhardt - Digitalkameras,Spiegelreflexkameras,Videocamcorder und mehr

Some lenses are cheaper in one shop and others in the other shops, you always have to compare.

Yes. Konijnenberg is a good place for many things. I bought a Lowe Trekker 600 from them - a very easy deal.
