Ok, that makes sense to me. On my laptop at home, the DA 50 1.8 was still there and displayed a price of $119. But on my desktop at work, the 50mm is not even there, as someone mentioned earlier. I placed my order on Aug. 14 as well, but again, when I called this morning, the rep said no problems, she changed the $250 to $119 and all is good. I didn't think to ask when these might ship, but she mentioned I wouldn't be charged until the lens ships. So I'll just wait and see. Awesome deal if it happens; terrible for Pentax if it doesn't, especially given the support this forum gives them. I decided to buy my first Pentax, the K200D, after reading a ton of stuff on this site; more recently, I decided to buy the K-5ii and DA 40mm 2.8 after reading a ton of stuff here. I'll withhold final judgment for a few days.
