SYSAN looks like ACMAXX LCD Armor protector, 2 screens protectors (rear and up ) but SYSAN is 0.8mm thick and the ACMAXX 1.2mm.

First of all sorry about my wrong English language...
I'm consider to bye my first dslr and after a lot of hours in several forums i decide to chose the pentax K-5 and here comes my problems...
First of all i live in Greece an here there is not a big community of pentax fans and so is very difficult to find a store with pentax products.
When i went to stores and ask for the K-5 the salesman ask me but why pentax and they make me to feel like alien from my decision he told me that the after market service was terrible in my country and in the same time promote me some other brands (C,N).
After this i told him that i'm not interest in other brands at this moment and i want a price from the K-5.The price that he gave me was 1550€ for the double kit K-5 with 18-55WR - 50-200WR and 1380€ for the K-5 18-55WR.After research in websites i find that the B&H charges me $1399.95 for the body only $739.45 for Duties & Tax and $70.39 for shipping the adorama travels all over the world except Greece and i don't know the costs of taxes and shipping.The only choice i found is at amazon.uk that the double kit cost £1,098.00 or 1258,00€ with free shipping and without VAT for my country and the only problem that maybe have is the ac power plug but i can solve it with ac plug adapter.
The question that i have is
1 What about the service of pentax products in my country is it worth or to think from an other brand?
2 The research that i have had about from where to buy K-5 is it right or there is something that i didn't consider?
3 If i chose to buy K-5 from amazon.uk what is better to chose the K-5 double kit or the body only and some other lens at the same price? (this most because i believe that the body only must have a newer serial number than the kit and avoid to have a K-5 with stain problem).
