How did you get your Leica M9?

Hi guys, I am starting a poll on how you got your M9. I suppose there are a couple of ways to get it but I like to know the numbers. Thanks in advance

I'm from Indonesia.
I bought my M9 from MAX photo singapore.
It's imposible to get M9 in Indonesia....

Seems like there are only 8 M9 users in clubsnap. I guess the rest are still waiting for their M9

i think a couple months ago, you could have sold your old M9 for 10k SGD, and re-order it in EUR. By now, you would have receive it, and you would have made a profit due to falling EUR.

I know more M9 users than what is reported here, since some may not respond to the poll.

I got mine 2nd hand (in fact I know the owner, one of my friends.)

He paid $11,300 new and hardly used it. He sold it to a shop recently and lu gi about $2K (To "upgrade" to a med format DSLR). I picked it up from the shop and found that only less than 500 shots were taken over that few months. I came to know about the owner only when the shop passed me the purchase receipt.

The camera looks and functions as new. Other than the AWB, I am very happy with it.
