UK/European Pentaxians: Park cameras: K-1ii & 100mm Macro for £1297

Jeff · 11:55 AM

Park cameras have a deal on a K-1ii that seems pretty good; so much so that I've traded in my K-1 in order to get it. They also have a K-1ii + 35mm f/2.0 for £1999 as a kit; this is not as good as the deal above.

Unfortunately Europeans now have to pay import duties , making the UK deals like 20% less attractive. (Varies a bit per country and handler, but my cost is typically fixed 15 € import handling fee and duties 20% of shipped value (including shipping fees!)) 😞.

If you sell what you bought in the Euro zone, you get the price differential benefit, which may offset what you buy in the UK. The best is to buy in the Euro zone and sell in the UK.
