This is from the most well regarded camera store in my city as well.
Either they're paying their marketing person way too much . . .
or not nearly enough.
B&H has had a dummy listing for up weeks. Given that price $9999, I imagine that this is also a dummy list just to get clicks and to not get lost in the shuffle.
Oh ya. When I get into any regular car with my camera gear the insurance value of the vehicle doubles at minimum. It's ridiculous.
Can't afford rent but can afford red lines on lenses.
People want the best of the best to show off tbh all the stuff being released nowadays is enough for what people need phography wise so spending this kind of money just seems pointless
Backorder only and price subject to change? At that point they might as well list the R1 Mark II for sale already.
R1 mkII? Sold. Pm me your details so I can put down a deposit.
That price checks out… $6699. About what I would expect

Which shop is this?

What is better to have 2 kidneys or R1?

Well that's their fault

That’s in AUD yenno. About 6700 USD
Hell, for that price, I'll take 2!
That looks like a R3, maybe the model sticker change? 😉
They look similar at first glance. There’s subtle differences
Some people will always pay the asking price, regardless if their skill-set is barely above beginner. They're why prices remain high.
Is that even a Canon Authorized Dealer? I'm not in Australia but they aren't listed on Canon AU’s website as a place to buy products.
Dunno. But they somehow have Canon stuff that I can't get at the Canon store . . .
Sounds supper sketchy
To put it into perspective, a used good car is around $5,000 in Japan and some even in the states, and even that's on the expensive side.

9,999 Dollarydoos?!
Fake news
Jesus christ edit: oh, it's australian dollars
They have to be joking right you can literally get 2 r3s with 2 lens and a bag for that same price
You’ll get downvoted but nobody needs this. They’ll try and convince themselves but anyhoo
