Why not just buy both from Adorama?
Edit to add - oh - I see you would be getting the K-5 for $985 from Abe's -
I had the same question back in June so I contacted Pentax via their online chat. Here is a copy of the chat:
Please wait while we find an agent to assist you...
You have been connected to Paul C.
Al: I bought a K-5 2 weeks ago. I saw pentax offers an extended warranty for this camera. Can I still purchase this extended warranty or it is only valid if purchased at the same time as the camera?
Paul C: you would qualify for the extended warranty up to 90 days after purchase
Al: Do I have to purchase it from the same reseller? I bought camera from B&H but they are out of stock. Can I purchase it from Adorama?
Al: Also, Is there any registration required? I already registered the camera. Not sure if camera and extended warranty need to be registered at the same time?
Paul C: usually yes , you may need to send a prof of purchase but it's usually not a problem
Paul C: just keep your proof of purchase and the ext.warranty card ( when you get it)
Al: Thats all I had. Thank you.
Paul C: you will need to submit a copy should you need any warranty work
Paul C: Thank you for dropping by, Al, and have a great weekend !
Al: You too. Thanks.
