[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]Received word from Leica USA on the following (I believe this is news here; apologies if repeating a posting I missed): First, M-series rebates ($500 each camera; $100 each lens) now extended from 12/31/97 to 2/28/98. Second, new R-series rebates initiated ($250 each lens under 100mm; $500 each lens 100mm or over), also to 2/28/98. Sorry, nothing on R bodies. Third, Minilux rebates re-instated ($150), also to 2/28/98. Finally, binocular rebates continue (I don't see a lot of binocular stuff here, but what the heck). This all is from customer instant rebate forms for dealers that arrived at the store where I work. Haven't seen any media ads yet. Anyone ever hear of rebates based on focal length before? Anyway, perhaps some solace in the recent down-market days. So, shoppers, carry on!
