I just got my K100D so I will not be spending any more on the camera for the time being. However that doesn't mean I won't share the wealth if i find some good deals! This may be for US only. The 50-200mm lens is about $110 cheaper than anywhere else I've seen so far.

For the really industrious; you may be able to take these online prices and get another store to price match if they carry the same lens... ie Best Buy with a -10% price match policy:

50-200mm @ Best Buy for 299.99

PM Circuit City price 159.96 - 10% = $143.96 + tax


hmmm.... maybe I need to convince the wife I need an additional lens now....

What shocked me was that B&H prices were very close on most of the lens and even significantly cheaper on two.

[bigben91682]

I think those are fairly good prices for Circuit City, who I consider to be overpriced on just about everything..however the prices are still high compared to other online retailers like amazon, who has lower prices on every lens you list except the 50-200mm.

I had a $15 off 100 after ordering something else from circuit online and tried to use it on my af360 flash when it was on clearance, but the discount would not take since the flash was on clearance. your mileage may vary so good luck w/ that if you try.

it does seem a good price on the 50-200, but those other prices are similar to what they have been running off and on for the last couple months. I've been waiting patiently for them to get "serious" about their clearance on their 12-24

Doh! I've been looking only at the 50-200mm. *headdesk* I will be more discerning next time.

Not too bad if you absolutely must look at the gear in person before buying.

Fairly certain those are online only items. I've never seen Pentax gear in a physical CC store.
