Greetings Scott

Someone up there is an idiot.

True

The SD1 is still for sale at B&H.

True, Special order not in stock

No parts?!? I don't think so.

Think all you want

There ARE parts available, I'm sure.

Where?

There is NO WAY that Sigma is still selling this camera, but doesn't have any parts available for it.

Old stock, special order, it's been discontinued.

Sorry. How could they even honor their warranty if they don't have any parts?

They'll replace it with a different camera if yours goes bad with in the warranty period. I has this happen before. Warranty is 90 days.

Refurbished SD1M only carry a 90 day warranty.

Who would buy a SD1M for $2300 USD? You can buy a SDQ-H and a Art lens for less

Someone either lied to you or they are clueless.

You know what I'm going to do? Send in my out of warranty, (by years) SD1 just to see what happens. I'll bet you it goes back to Japan, (8 weeks or longer) they may have parts, or the UK, or Germany, who knows.

Please notify Sigma in Japan what you were told and by whom. I'm sure they would like to know about your experience.

Already talk to them. We'll see.

Here is the SD1 Merrill for sale:
