M9 is in town!

[DoveVadar]

SGD9.9k anywhere is a buy at this time. Stocks difficult to find. None available in London.

Leica Shop, Bruton Place, London

ah.. a Noctilux... looking very good. but I reckon none of us can find any now... always like that.. same case as the summilux 24. now we know there are many leica man around

given that the GST in NZ is 12.5%, I think for those keen in getting one, they might be able to get away with the GST if it is exported out of NZ

The freight and Singapore's 7% GST would probably negate the entire 12.5% NZ GST plus the additional worry about not getting servicing in Singapore is the factor that is holding me back.

third3rdwheel, sold out lah

But was told not many pieces.

I was told only 2 pieces came into Singapore.

So hard to get this camera
Even when u have the money, the camera is not available

 

[weekh]

Any idea when will M9 be available? And what's the price?
Also, what's the current going rate for a 2nd hand M8?

About the M8, A friend of mine bought a set (body only) yesterday from a local shop at SGD 3500.

I'm tired at looking at the 'same guy', so when will M9 hit Singapore en masse?

En masse will not happen soon. One grey piece just came in and was sold quickly.

M8 prices are falling everywhere. Just wait a while. Here's an example below S$2500 in US. In Europe, it's a few hundreds higher, but still below S$3000.

Cheers,

...I think those who can afford to buy an M9 at the current premium price do not need to sell anything to finance it...:bsmilie:

11388 is retail price and i figured thats the price snits is talking about. i have no idea on shops selling at 11888. after all he did say 11k and not closer to 12k.

Sorry, then my facts are wrong too, because I thought $9999 was the retail price.
