Man, I wish prices were even remotely near that here in AU. I'm planning to get a K3 in the next month or two, and even a raw body will be $1200. I want a grip and flucard, too.
AUD 1099 for body only at https://www.pentax.com.au/shop/dslr-cameras

Give CR Kennedy a call they might do you a deal on the body+grip+flu card

Wow, what a deal! And I just ordered one of their standard bundles for more. I wish I could refuse the package and ask for refund so I can purchase this bundle at a better deal.
Just call them up and say you want the better deal. They should not refuse because you are within the return window.

I sent Helen at Adorama an email a little while back explaining my "plight". Tomorrow I think I'll try calling as you suggested. Hopefully everything will work out. These kinds of situations always make me feel a little anxious, as if I could have or should have known better. Oh well...

Where is this "Discover Deals"? How to get that?

EDIT: I found a $25 cashback for $250 spent at "Discover Deals"

TIA

I have to tell you that the grip and flucard for my new K3 have been outstanding and I am finding new uses for the FluCard. I know the usual suspects complain that its not integrated WiFi - big deal. It works well for me and having an iPad Retina screen to use to focus for macro and astro photography has been a true joy!

It looks like the price of the 50mm lens in the Complex Rebates or Bundle is now $104.95.

Things change. Posts like this one and SlickDeals often result in a much higher spike in sales than anticipated and with algorithms running much of the big sites pricing the result is a jump upward in price.

nice, but is it possible to ask for a flash instead of the grip or add a flash instead of the lens ?

That's not a current option. The Flash deal was done to clear out old models - now that those are all gone the new models aren't going to be significantly discounted any time soon.

Thanks - I know about the grip and OFC-1. As usual, I'd be on this if I hadn't just purchased the 2 items we've already discussed.

I have $3,500 left in my 'allocation' which should be just about enough.

I'm tempted to grab this deal again just to have a K3 as a backup and then sell my K5 and K7.

I'm really starting to resent USA for these low prices. In Europe the body only is like 1200$
Damn it.
