I think that's the first time I've seen grey market be more expensive than retail.

It’s U.K. retail minus the 20% VAT.

UK retail is £1999. So it is cheaper but not enough differential to go grey market, in my view.

Are you sure that it actually is in stock with them? Many such businesses keep little or no stock, only sourcing stock from a wholesaler/distributor after receiving customer orders.

If you have ordered from them and actually received delivery by return, please do say so and put my [our] mind at ease.
 
I've used them twice. Actually bought my E-M1 mk II from them. No problems so far. Second time was just recently. Took a week to ship but they replied to my e-mails right away and well - they do have warning on their site that there can be delays due to current situation in the world.
 
I got my 12-40pro from e-infinity with no issues, but recently used hdew for an em5-mk3 for £660, their OM1 is £2199 though.
 
Not in stock in USA or UK as of this am. I like e-infinity but my experience is you have to be willing to give them time to track down some inventory in SE Asian locations before an item is shipped.
 
No problems with e-infinity.. Have bought camera and lens there.

I've used them three times. Once the item 'got lost in the post' and they had to send a replacement. Once they delivered a Sony camera instead of an Olympus lens and I had the trouble of sending the camera back. And once they delivered the item without issue. Based on a one in three success rate I'll never use them again even if they are a little cheaper. Goodness knows what would happen if the item was faulty.

You return the goods without a problem. Had it with one lens.
