The item from this post http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/115353 is back in stock. I regret (ha!) missing out last time, so I reposted it here in case anyone feels the same.
They also have a refurbished Sony A37 for $409 with Twin Lens kit which I bought as apparently there's not much difference between the A37 and A57. Fingers crossed on the 3 month warranty.
It's technically an SLT not an SLR also. Either way better to have the price in the title.
Oh yeah I didn't really pay much attention to that
But I am a DSLT user
used a33 and using a57 and a99
Excellent Camera with a Image stabilizer in the body of the camera, the two lens it comes with are:
Sony SAL1855 DT 18 - 55mm F3.5 - 5.6 Lens
Sony SAL55200-2 DT 55 - 200mm F4 - 5.6 Lens
Why so cheap, is this ex-demo, refurbished or factory second?
That's about $460 cheaper than elsewhere.
This is an import stock i believe
but if you pay more than $699 for Australian stock you're getting ripped off
a57 is superseded by a58 (which isn't exactly all upgrades, I prefer a57 over a58 any day for many things)
Which Australian store in Sydney sells for $699?
But It does have a 12 month Sony Warranty.
Not sure exactly what you mean by import stock, but it's not a grey import, if that's what you were suggesting, and the price includes GST.
I ordered this from them at a slightly higher price a few weeks ago, on a Sunday and received it in regional Qld by the end of the week.
No this is local Australian stock. This model has been discontinued that's why the very low price.
The refurbished version + shipping is only $40 cheaper which doesn't make it very attractive deal. The Sony A37 deal has been sold out.
Ordered a kit prior to it selling out.
Can't wait to give it a go.
God it's sold out again. That could be the last of the stocks.
I think it'd be better to change the title to
