Nikon Prices go thru the roof

(1/3) > >>

elsa hoffmann:
I nearly had a 3rd heart attack today when I saw the price of new Nikon equipment. Clearly I wasn't the only one - Fanie also noticed this - it must have happened really recently.

With our Rand exchange rate going right down the drain - my 70-200 now costs more than double I paid for it

Our rand depreciated SO badly - the 70-200 now costs the equivalent of $3040. Two weeks ago it was roughly $2600 (give or take a dollar or two)

With this exchange rate - you ALL SHOULD COME DO A TOUR WITH ME !!!

Bjørn Rørslett:
No doubt, (over)loaded with nice gear ... :D

elsa hoffmann:
 ;D ;D ;D nah - I don't lust for more gear - it's more to look after and carry around!

chris dees:
Nikon raised their prices as from January 1st.
In Holland the prices went far up as well. For example the 24/1.4G went up from €1.849,00 to €2.259,00!

Akira:
Sorry to hear that, Elsa.  But, hey, not everything is bad: the young dollar-rich men look even more attractive now!
