Pentax K-X White + 18-55 lens for $460 in Amazon !

Is $510 in amazon but there's 50 instant coupon to down to $470, and 5% cash back if use pay phase.

In case anyone bought the camera 2-3 days ago when the price was $560, I called amazon and they said they would adjust the price to thew price, still with discount.

I added it to my cart, but during the checkout process it disappeared and said they were out of stock

Ah well, I shouldn't buy one anyway

Thanks for the heads up,

Eric

Just got SUPER lucky. When I called first the person on the phone aid they're system was down and wait 30 mins and call back. So I did and had the page open. When I called again the item had gone out of stock. She said couldn't find it and I said, no I'm looking at it right now. when I refreshed the page, disappeared. Couldn't find proof since I didn't take a screen shot or add it to my cart so let it go. Co-worker told me to try again and call and got a different person. Asked them to give me a price match and they gave me the price of the 3rd party relater versus mine. Got $60 back! Which brings my total to $450 for the white k-x!

Just ordered one yesterday. I'm going to try and get the credit. Trying to find the number to call. They sure don't make it easy. The system is designed to avoid phone calls. If anyone knows the correct Amazon phone # to try please advise. Thanks.

I agree, number was very hard to find. Gave up on their website and google searched it. Call here:

1-800-201-7575

If you get a person that doesn't price match, call again a few minutes later. First person couldn't do it because it was out of stock and went to 3rd party. Second person used the 3rd parties price to discount mine which saved me an extra $10.

Good timing it seems... The white K-x is 8th in DSLR sales on Amazon.

Now, I haven't seen any "Pentax is doomed" threads lately. Almost beginning to miss them...

Thank you knightzerox for the phone #. Struck out so far. I insisted on the 460.62 price which I saw briefly as did others on this thread. The customer service agent couldn't find the price -just other pages from J&R and Willoughbys. My purchase yesterday was for 558.94 less $50 via the coupon code. I guess it pays to take screen shots when you see these things. It seems like they were willing to do it if we could find it but ultimately she said that they don't price match . I will try again in a little while. Thanks everyone.

Second attempt yielded a friendly customer service guy. Couldn't find the page with the deal. He said they probably sold out and sometimes they have short lived deals such as this. Also noted that the site states somewhere that Amazon does not do price-matching but then gave me a $20 courtesy credit since I'm such a good customer.
Merry Xmas!
