I've noticed that the X100V specifically seems to be more expensive and difficult to find now than it was upon release. Other Fuji cameras I can find easily and at a good price, but the X100V is either unavailable or really expensive.

Does anyone know why, a place where its price is like its rele MSRP etc.?

In context everything is more expensive than it was for.

Not over here in Europe it isn't. I find the X-Pro3 (both Dura Silver and non-Dura Black) much cheaper than MSRP new. I find the X-T4 cheaper new. I find other brand cameras cheaper than they were upon release as well. Of all cameras I have sought while doing research the only one I consistently find above MSRP is the X100V. It is why I've been curious about it specifically.

I regard the X100V as a premium product and to be priced accordingly.

Yes. I believe that is 1300 or so. And I have not complained anywhere about that price. It's the 2000 I am complaining about.

I wish it was cheaper too, I would certainly buy one. Well done to those who can find one cheaper that is not a grey market product.

Cheaper than 1300 would be amazing, obviously, but here we're reached a point of being happy if we find it at 1600.
