Leicas are still the only cameras more or less as expensive in the US as the UK, the Japanese makes have always been much cheaper in the US than here. The Leica rebate in the UK is ?500, that is about $1000 or 635 Euros. Clearly if I want another M8 I should get it in Europe ;-) cheers, Frank On 13 Jul, 2008, at 01:44, Frank Filippone wrote: > Mehrdad........ you know better.... money is money.
