Originally posted by KansasHorizons.com FWIW Amazon has a lower price and a shorter delivery time now.
They usually do, although the last time I made a significant purchase the best price was at one of the site sponsers, Adorama from whom I purchased a ring flash.
I didn'tcheck last night, but this morning at least the Amazon price and the Pentax USA price are both exactly the same, $249.95
except that Amazon offers 'free delivery', and Pentax usa dinged me for $10.95 shipping.
PentaxUSA is 1st business day shipping, and since I ordered on a Friday night, it's possible that Amazon could be faster because
sometimes they ship over the weekend. Amazon is also based in Seattle while Pentax USA comes out of Denver and since I'm in NW Oregon, I'm a 1000 miles closer to Seattle than Denver.
