How is it possible - G10?

[Albereth]

I bought myself a TV yesterday and while I was at the shop I had a look at the Canon G10. The SO is on about getting another camera and I have the G3 which I absolutely love. I know that the G11 is due out in a week or two so I thought I'd have a look.

They want R6500 for it. Retail.

I have a dealer price list (okay, not a camera dealer but a place that sells lots of Canon stuff and they list cameras and accessories) The dealer wants R6719 excl.

Nuts.

Camera retailers and PC Hardware wholesalers get their stock from the same source and I would guess at the same price. The camera stores might even get more of a discount as they stock the full range and probably by more from the Canon camera agents. What I mean is that, you don't see anything higher than 50Ds or the L lenses (at least on Pinnacle Micro) on the PC pricelists. So camera stores like ORMS and SACamera probably move a lot more stock based on value.

Digital Experience for retail and Frontosa for 'dealer' price.
