I am planning to buy K5 (cannot resist anymore), currently prodigital 2000 and tri-state camera have the best prices on ebay. Prodigital has the best price, with a difference of 20$. But will the warranty be valid in the U.S.? Also, I'm still concerned about the shutter problems and makes me think if I have a wait a little longer to sort out the problem. Your input is appreciated.
Thanks

In order to have a USA warranty, according to what I was told by Pentax, you must buy the camera in the USA. There may be an International warranty on cameras purchased by Prodigital, I'm not sure, and don't really know what it does. Your best bet is to ask Pentax about it rather than getting and playing guessing games here.
As for TriState, I've dealt with them a few times before, had no problems. Just call to place your order so you can verify right then, they have them in stock (which is a typical issue with Prodigital).
