I was hunting about a month ago all the ebyers wanted $1000-$1600 for 50-150 S

I resorted to searching google for "Meta Craigslist Search" found 5 sites that search the whole country crags list at once...

Found a guy offered him $800 (saying that I know it will be worth less than this in a few weeks with the announce of the GH5)

He said ok and lets meet I told him to post it on ebay buy it now and Id paypal instantly. He did and I got it but I feel bad a bout two things I know he prob only got like $650 after ebay and paypal took him to cleaners...

and to my surprise NX Gear has been rising in price. I figured the GH5 pre-order would be the harbinger of the price fall...

They have spiked since.

Perhaps the announcement of the Sony A7S III will do it?

who knows... This systems Half life is very strange

GH5 looks nice, but I think Panasonic is crazy with the price for a m43 camera. $2K for body only? No thanks. I'm sure people will still buy it like they do with overpriced iphones. I can get 2 NX1's now for that price.
