Is this an actual, new Pansonic FZ200 or a bait and switch? How is it being sold for so much less than other sellers on Amazon?

If it is selling for the price listed as $485.00, then that is reasonable. I didn't pay over $5OO.00 for mine new, and it came with case and a few accessories. I love my camera and have been extremely happy but it takes some patience learning all the settings. Good luck!

Mine is for real, and the camera can be used manually or it may be set for any mode that you so desire. I find the product to be as advertised and the name "Leica" to be of a real significance in lenses.

I have received no notification of thisAnd the distributor website does not show this. What I have in stock would be the non upgraded model.

Logitech Squeezebox Boom All-in-One Network Music Player / Wi-Fi Internet RadioBased primarily on reviews I ordered this Logitech Squeezebox Boom from Amazon. It is scheduled for delivery Monday, too late to cancel. Today Fryes are advertising the same model new in store for $50. less. Amazon does not Price Match. Returning is my only option.

Mine was actually listed as used even though it had never been out of the original packaging. Vendor said they sold it as used so they could price it lower than Yamaha allows their dealers to sell new product.

I was gonna buy one of these today and they raised the price by $350?! WT_?!Yesterday I noticed that it was being shipped from TigerDirect and today it's from Amazon. Are they gonna switch the price again?

Thanks for posting this. Because of this I decided to buy direct from Amazon only. Not any sellers I'm pretty sure I have the real one, The only difference with mine is the charger but I don't care if that if fake or not. I know I have the real wep200. Plus I got a great deal with amazon like 25.00 don't know if it was a clearance or just a sale. Thanks!

Bought mine for the $30 price. I agree with Bryan that it's probably just different sellers. Go with your wallet!

My FZ-7 was $198 at Circuit City. The model has been replaced by the FZ-8 so the FZ-7 should be found with steep discounts now.

There's a promotion going for the LN46B750. Amazon is currently selling it for $1,999.99. Input coupon code, "SAMTV300" and it drops to $1,699.99. I'm pissed because yesterday I picked up an LN46A860 from Crutchfield for $1,579.99 with 1% FW cashback. It already shipped, bleh.Specs wise, seems like everything is the same except that the LN46B750 introduces 240Hz motion and Internet@TV (Yahoo!, YouTube, Flickr, etc.). Also, the LN46B750 has a charcoal ToC while the LN46A860 has a dark blue one. Moreover, I haven't come across a review that details the performance of the 240Hz motion.

I received mine over the weekend from Amazon, but have done similar research as you did for over a week. I've noticed the same thing as you do on the price increase. IMO I chaulk it up to supply and demand. I shopped around and found the prices to be generally very close amongst online stores, and no more $435's available except at one reputable NY store selling it at $439 just the other day, and is back-ordered. The thing is that with Amazon there aren't even other vendors selling this camera at any price, so it's completely up to Amazon to charge what it thinks is appropriate. Even the used prices (which are mostly by Amazon in this case) have risen by a large margin. However, the camera is fantastic! So it's still a value proposition in my case. Since I sold my M43 gear, this $500 price tag is downright low. Look at it another way, there are no M43 or DSLRs (bodies only) that shoot at 5.5 FPS with autofocus or 12 without that come in at less than a grand. The lens range and aperture are in the same situation, there is nothing in the inter-changeable lens world that come close without costing multiples of this FZ150. Seriously, an Olympus 28-200'ish mm equivalent M43 lens runs at $450; a Nikon 18-200 VR for APS-C sensor is at approx $900; a Nikon 28-300 VR for full frame is about $1k (while non of these open to f 2.8). True, those cameras have larger sensors and the lenses are quality stuff and can do different things (we're not totally comparing apples to apples here), but if this camera is right for you for what you do as it does in my case for what I intend it to do, which is for travel (light) and take photos of my son at baseball games, the price is a steal. Frankly this camera out guns my DSLR by a large margin and does 1080P video with fast accurate auto focus at 60p :) I cannot do manual video focus of sports - at any price! On the other hand, other options may be to wait and see, or buy used. I checked out eBay, no luck there (but Amazon pricing staff already know that).

is this a brand new factory-sealed product? i just don't understand why it is being sold nearly $200 dollars less than retail price. There has to be some sort of catch.

Whatever stock Buy.com had is gone now. The Amazon "Not yet available/Pre-order" message is back up at the MSRP. Can't believe I caught this a a 33% discount. Hope I'm not getting scammed and these were early release units to generate some interest and reviews??!

oh man, I wish I had found these posts before ordering one of these as most of the reviews are positive. It's on the way, should I just immediately send it back and eat the shipping charge? I wouldn't be surprised that these are on sale now as Schwinn prob has fixed models out now. I am assuming that if I keep this bike it will crap out shortly. If I do keep it, should I immediately call for the new motor and then the control panel before even using it? Will the original motor work with the new panel? uggggh. not looking forward to this. Any chance we can convince you to put up a website with pics of the fixes?? ; ) oh man, I wish I had found these posts before ordering one of these as most of the reviews are positive.

A scam. The camera is out of stock at the regular price of $2700 for the body only. Why would any real dealer sell it for less? I once got tricked when I was starting out by one of these scam shops. These guys should all be in prison. Check reseller ratings online. They'll probably be listed with many acts of fraud.

Tarek, I am glad I could help. You are correct in that Amazon has added the new version to their database. Doing an Amazon search for "HKGOPLAY5BLK" will pull it up. It is interesting to note that some places it is HKG<zero>PLAY5BLK but I believe Amazon has it correct with HKG<capital o>PLAY5BLK.Once Amazon gets them in stock I am sure they will correct the price to $350 or below since that is the actual MSRP.I can see how the cost-benefit margin might be slim if you don't have an i-anything, have you considered the Soundsticks II? The aesthetics are certainly better than the Z-2300. Either one is at a price point that might allow you to get the new GO + Play when you get an i-something and the price has come down.

I am not selling this, I just purchased one from Amazon. There must be a mixup.
