  If the lens is 20mm/F1.7, it would be a GREAT deal….

    I haven't seen that lens bundled with any Panasonic cameras in a while. But yeah, I agree. That's a must own lens for Micro 4/3 shooters.

    Hi Maxixix,

    The comparative sites listed above of BuyMart and DWI digital cameras are selling parallel import products.

    The stock we are selling is genuine Australian stock, backed and supported by Panasonic Australia.

    It also now appears that Ted's are matching our price since we have launched our deal.

  I believe the claims including "save $500" represent deceptive and illegal conduct.

  Misleading pricing

  Further, the actual previous price must have been offered for a reasonable period prior to the discount offer commencing so that it is a genuine offer and not just a price that has been inflated to make a sale price seem more attractive.
  …
  The trader must have offered these goods at the higher price for a reasonable period of time—that is, it must be a genuine pre-sale price.
  …

  Comparisons with the recommended retail price (RRP)

  Advertising or promotions of 'savings' or 'discounts' on the RRP of goods and services are designed to convince you that you are getting a good deal because the price is less than the RRP.

  If traders do not normally price their goods at the RRP, it may be misleading to give you the impression that they do.

    Hi aboutconfig,

    Amazon is a US based website sourcing US based stock.

    Our deal is specific to the Australian retail market and therefore we are supplying Australian stock, backed and supported by Panasonic Australia.
