Last show is also like that. They wrongly advertised. After inquiring I learned that they dont have the silver lens afterall

I know 1 brother here bought body only (black) from Parisilk, Holland V. Try give them a call if they have stock.
If you want silver only, I'm afraid KL is your only option. Some shops there are willing to remove the black kit lens from the package and sell you just the body.
IIRC, the official set for body only is black colour.

Is comex price of $1,888 acceptable?
pay about extra $188 for bag tripod and strap.
How much is the strap worth?

ask urself.. will u use the free gift (bag , tripod , strap) for long? else, u r just wasting money. Might as well use the money to buy something u prefer. might have to spend abit more...but at least suits ur needs.

dont think u can get back much selling those stuff.

Cathay quote me 1610 (body + lens +16gb memory)

 

[davidsim]

This quote should exclude GST right?
Normally they quote without telling you there is GST.
So with GST, will be S$1722.:sweat:

You'll be better of buying from KL..
Cheapest I found in Amazon is US$980.. you have to pay shipping and Custom will tax you 7% GST coz your purchased is > S$400.
If you buy in KL, can always leave the box there and just bring back the camera and accessory.. won't kena tax by Custom
