Absurdly low - the deals keep coming on this!

Thanks for sharing!
Too late for me, thought I got a great deal at $450.

Seriously? If that's a legit deal I am snagging one!

It's a legit deal. Groupon did such a deal on the Q a few months back and many could not believe that price - they got BNIB Qs from Groupon. It really looks like Pentax is dumping the K-01 but that is to Pentaxians benefit.

Mind you, when I post the link on facebook, the title that comes up is $399, not $299. Inside the link and checking out, it says $299. Could be a mistake, but I'll get right on it~

I went to checkout through my Groupon account and it was $317 and change out the door with local sales tax.

I scored on white K-01! Thanks for the hot deal.

Yup, I think all Pentax bodies are.

Guakala · 12-21-2012, 11:24 AM

Considering that I just bought my K-01 for $316 last month, this deal is breaking my heart.

:'(

Docrwm · 12-21-2012, 11:32 AM

I think eBay will be awash in broken sets soon. Those who already have a 40Ltd may sell off their 40XS and those without may sell off the K-01 body. This should be interesting.

Docrwm- is that to say the Groupon bodies will be damaged??

No, I meant the sets will be broken up - they are a kit of the K-01 body and the 40XS lens. Those who only want one part may buy the set at that price and sell the other part they do not want/need to recover some of the cost.
