OK - a little convoluted but... I asked JB HiFi to pricematch the lowest (Aus local) price I could find (which was ECS at the time - however they've now increased their price by $100) - anyway it was $2285 (they did that straight off no questions :up: ) but then I also used Westfields gift cards to pay (which I can buy with a 5% discount :wink: ) so all up I actually paid about $2180 which easily fit within the grey market threshold.

Very nice, but I would get rid of the camera that you used to shoot the D600 - it’s crap :biglaugh:
