You understand I'm empathetic, right? Yes, a number of first-run bodies had a faulty supplier component. Sucks to buy something and immediately find out you need to send it back for a repair.
Pentax recalled the affected serials and offered warranty repair. They pre-positioned parts at Precision. Repair turnaround is reported to be less than 2 weeks. Flat Rate USPS insured shipping costs $13.80. Life isn't perfect.
After that - it seems to me, anyway - your argument is with Amazon, not Pentax. Pentax recalled the cameras but Amazon did what Amazon does - they simply recycled the new-condition return merch, then they closed your account and left you holding the bag for $1000, so your Thread Title and repeated 'updates' seem mis-aimed.
In just the last few hours you've gone from three cameras to six unless I haven't taken the time to read the entire thread carefully. What did Pentax have to do with anything after the second camera?
And FWIW, new cameras always drop in price after a few months - that's part of the game. The $1,099 price is the Early Adopter penalty. Lot's of buyers wait for the first price drop - which we're in right now. It's normal.
