Pentax at Wal-Mart

pete-tarmigan · 12-05-2011, 11:56 AM

No Pentaxes whatsoever on the Walmart Canada website.

As usual, most U.S. retailers and manufacturers consider Canada too small a market (similar in population size to California) to offer their full line of products (or any products at all, as is the case with most U.S. retailers!).

Don't support them, 95% of their inventory is from China.

I prefer to shop socially responsible retailers, even if the price may be slightly higher. I consider this site's endorsement of Walmart an insult. Please support fair wages.

lol, you realise you just promoted Walmart to two years worth of members who had never seen this thread and never would have.

Don't feel bad, here's what's in the USA online. Only 1, a KR for $500.00 (Pentax K-r 12.4MP DSLR Camera Bundle w/ 18-55mm Lens, 3" LCD, and HD Video, Gold)

They also have a K-30 body (white) for $600, along with a K-30 kit, and colored Kr cameras for $500.
