It's 6th Avenue Express so it's likely a grey market item but this is a really good deal. The seller has a 1-year warranty.

They also have the Black/Orange and White models available with the 18-135 for the same price.

Hi at all.
I'm a new italian user and I would to buy this kit on ebay.
In 2 days I will be in New York and I would send this item to my hotel. But "6ave" not accept payment from not United States paypal account.

It's really true? Is there another way?

I wrote to this seller but,at the moment,no answer..

**Spodeworld** · 09-02-2015, 04:56 PM

Even if you could, why would you trust the hotel for this kind of thing? Why not go to the camera shop when you're in New York?

6ave ships only within the US & since ebay requires shipping to paypal verified addresses, it would mean that international buyers don't qualify. You could check with the hotel concierge if they would get one for you (on ebay, since that offers a level of protection).

The gray/orange is irresistable.

Because 6ave don't have a real Shop in New York city. B&h and adorama don't have k-s2 available for pick up (and kit with 18-135 is too much expensive).

On Amazon. Com I can find it at 799$ from Electronic basket. Have they the same policy of 6ave?
Thanks

Resellerratings.com gives 6th ave a 2 out of 10 rating. That's with over 1234 reviews. I would stay away from them.
