This is an all-time low price on the K-30, I believe: $584

$537 at Amazon. Same thing - body only. I would try for a lower price at B&H by ordering on phone.

You risk getting grey market on Amazon unless you use Amazon on Amazon. And, besides, Amazon doesn't list as a Pentax authorized dealer. So not a valid dealer if you want the additional 2 year warranty.

Stick with B&H or one of the other authorized dealers on this unless you really don't care about the warranty (or grey market items).

Not true. If the order is from a third party seller and is fulfilled by Amazon the warranty is good and the extended 3 year warranty applies. The same applies for buying directly from Amazon.

+ tax, Amazon is almost at same price

Wow, that's good! I ordered the kit at $619 when the body was still $630. I figured it was just a matter of time for the body to get lower.
