Yeah. It probably would have gotten to me quicker. And been cheaper.
When I was comparing prices, there was very little difference between buying here or from the US. By the time I pulled the trigger, the local price had gone up by $150, and then the K-70 price dropped at B&H. Could have saved myself $250.
The price you pay for living here, I guess. Remoteness and small population means we pay a premium. Although I was pleasantly surprised to find local retailers stocking Peak Design accessories for cheaper than I could get direct from the Peak Design website. Got a Peak Design Slide for NZ$89. It's NZ$105 on the website (before shipping).
What's the deal with Pentax warranty if you buy from overseas?
