Originally posted by c.a.m I am visiting relatives in Winnipeg this weekend. Photo Central is an independent dealer in town. I popped in to check out several pieces of used gear. I was surprised to see that they have re-introduced Pentax - the manager mentioned that Ricoh is offering better terms. Last year they would not touch anything Pentax.
Without asking, the sales person handed a K-3 to me to try, saying they have had a very strong interest from buyers and potential customers. They have a small Pentax display, but include the K-50, K-500, K-5 II and K-3 and a decent mix of lenses.
So, there's another Pentax dealer in this city of 750,000.

In Winnipeg, there are three Don's, three Henry's, one London Drugs... and they all handle Pentax and have for the past number of years. I have bought a Km , K-5 and 9 digital Pentax lenses from these dealers since 2008. They had product when I wanted it...and on the occasion they didn't have an item in stock...they ordered it in and it always arrived within a week or two. Price was always competitive and they price matched anywhere in Canada, as long as the price matched was from a store in Canada. Can't be fairer or better service than that.
The city has been well served.
