What is Sony thinking with their crazy lens prices
#5
Quote:Now that the hype is over, the price will increase.

 

However, yes, Sony has always been ripping you off. It seems as if people have no problem with this though.

The Sony brand name is probably one reason for this.

At the end of the day they charge these prices ... because they can ...
 

Checked with Amazon Italy, 810€, which sounds perfectly consistent with the USD price.

 

I agree with Klaus. As soon as there's plenty of people buying at any price, those prices are going to stay. I recall times when I was on a very popular forum with lots of people posting, and many of them (pre)ordered almost everything that was announced (not only Sony). Lots of people with lots of money, good for them.  Wink
