Are you sure they don't have it mislabeled? It was never that expensive even when first announced. Their prices are pretty much set by the corporate headquarters, so if one Wolf or Ritz has it for a given price, they generally all do. You could ask them to check their database to see what the price *should* be.
Although FWIW, I can't really see any reason to buy a K110D at any price today. Well, maybe if it"s under $100. But consider that under $300 will get you either a camera with SR or a camera with a bigger viewfinder, it's hard to find a reaosn to settle for a K110D or *istDL.
BTW, although I'm as sensitive to price as any, I think if price were the only advantage to the cheaper camera (as is almost the case between K10D and K20D), I'd spend the extra $175. I hate to be the one to break it to you, but you're likely to spend much more than that over the next couple of years on lenses and so forth anyhow. In five years, I predict you will think it will seem very silly to have worried so much about that $175...
