Next week an M8.2 will be listed at 85% (Yes that is correct) more than lowest price I was quoted for the M8.0 in August this year at a large dealer in Australia. My own was bought before that last February. Hmm no more discounting it seems. I'm not counting on used prices on anything dropping here! I hope it is a better situation in the Netherlands. Cheers Geoff http://www.pbase.com/hoppyman/e http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/gh/ Maike Harbets speaks on the S2. .... So we will drop down this technology to our other systems. Our priority is to modernise the R system which will be in the end an R10, definitely. -----Original Message----- Subject: Re: [Leica] R10 news I'm interested. But very likely can not afford it. But I might get my hands on a used DMR when the prices will be dropping.
