I paid 3333€ on the 9th of Feb in Germany

Thanks again everyone, I got mine today for $4000 even, I had to negotiate, I think it's pretty good deal, still $500 more that the US price....

I paid £2,335.95 from tecno.co.uk... but obviously I would only endorse DvInfo sponsors :P

3995 euro, plus 18 % vat in istanbul in turkey,
alkim.

I am in Ozz, but got my Pal camera from Hong Kong.

1,772 UK pounds plus delivery.

I got mine delivered for about Aus$5,550.

Best price I could find.

EUR 3333 from Germany

Today 3333€ (www.mediaonline.de)

2999 + 16% VAT euros in Spain. andorrafreemarket.com

I got mine from www.kamera-express.nl in Rotterdam and payed 3519 Euro's for it.

In Germany you can get it online at www.mediaonline.de for 3333 Euro's. Sofar that is the lowest price.

The only thing you have to thing about is the guarantee. If there is something wrong with it, what can you do?

South African prices
 

The best local (South African) price is R32 000 (which comes to about 3333 Euros at today's exchange rate) for the A1. I paid R35 000 about 2 months ago.
We're also in PAL country.

They don't ship outside of germany, however.
Here are some other german shops:

Note that it is sold out almost everywhere in europe! Stock is expected to be back soon...

I obtained mine in Brisbane, Australia yesterday (5 March), for $5780. Supplies are a little limited.

I paid 3200€ (included taxes) in Barcelona (Spain)
The shop's name is Nivel10

Not in Europe, but may be interesting... I paid €3233/R31,500 (incl taxes) in Cape Town, South Africa, from my local photography dealer and Canon agent.

[Grin] And that's R500 cheaper than Karl's best price in Johannesburg.... but then maybe his agent had to charge for dragging it up the hill! And yes, PAL land.

3303 € in for A1 in Berlin and Munich, including taxes.
Seems to be the cheapest so far, name of the shop is hificomponents.de , they also sell in Germany via the net. They had some A1 in stock, now they are sold out and in the moment, there is a delay, I am waiting for my A1 now for about 3 weeks...
All the best,
