Would You Buy A M9 Demo With Leica Warranty

[kbg32]

and save $1000 off of the selling price? Or wait until new ones arrive? I have already been waiting a month.......

Thanks.

$1000 is a 50/1.1 Nokton in your bag with the M9. Why not?

Imagine you bought a brand new M9.
and someone came and asked if you let him/her play with your M9 while you are watching it, he/she pays you $1000

 

[robklurfield]

axiom, befitting your RFF handle, that logic is almost unassailable.

 

[dogberryjr]

Without hesitation.

 

[kbg32]

Thanks gentleman. I guess my wait is over!

Never buy new, refurbed or demo is the way to go

Assuming a reputable dealer, I prefer unabused demos. One thing about a demo, if there was anything wrong coming from the factory, it would probably have been noticed and taken care of by now. Sometimes however, a demo is someone else's return. You should talk with the dealer to find out what kind of demo it is.

Nope.
Not when I can get a much better discount on a new M9 through the student purchase program.

Now, if they were selling demo/refurb M9's at half price, like the stable of M8's that is available for cheap, then I'd go for it.

Like a shot. Or maybe Leica shot.

bougth an old demo m8. never had one problem with it so why not buy a demo M9?

Be patient. These discounts seem to come with a nice long waiting period.

 

[tmfabian]

absolutely.

Well, I waited until the shop received it, opened it, and checked it out. I bought it. Should be here Thursday or Friday!
