Not everybody cares about service and warranty but about the money the leave behind on the counter. Until someting goes wrong with their product or they find out that if they want to know something and can't get decent info from their cheaper vendor.
But I do have to add that because of the costumers that do care about such things we still excist and Mediamarkt has significantly shrunk their camera-stock in the last half a year. They mostly sell older products now for cheap. Though a couple of times a year they offer new models without VAT, wich means almost 19% off.
And yeah, I know life and market is not fair. When it's about money, principles are being thrown aside and it's each to its own to gain as much as there's to grab. That's "fine", I just hope we will not die because of that.
But anyways, the discussion has taken a direction for the worse. It is not my intention that NSL lowers their prices. That would mean no advantage for the people in the US and Europe. It just started because of the high price Hans carries compared to the some of the vendors in the US and it got too carried away.
