M10's for only $8998

[Huss]

I paid $9700 for the neat mobile home I purchased in St Pete, Florida. It has central air and heat, a Florida room, and came completely furnished w/ towels, pots and pans, dinnerware, TV, all that. Now I find out that I could have spent only $9500 for a Leica digital camera (w/ taxes, no lens) and slept in the park. Hmmm, maybe I made the wrong decision? I'll get back to you on that one.

To be fair there is far less chance in getting hit by a tornado with the M10.

well yeah,
but there is also a lot less chance of living inside a M10.

But you don't need to pay lot rent for the m10.

Makes all my cameras seem very cheap.

But then all Leica cameras are overpriced, even the film stuff, except maybe some of the R line and the Leicaflex. Heck, can't even say SL anymore w/o referring to that expensive digital stuff.

I will pass you the comment from a friend of mine when I made a similar commet about a car that cost more that my own home.

People that buys $9k dlls cameras dont live on a $9700 neat mobile home.

The m9p looks like it is still selling at a high price.

Mostly because there is a huge market for it. People that own a M9 and are willing to upgrade to M10 most likely will want a price that will allow them to get the M10 with a minimum additional cash.

The box it comes in is nicer than my apartment.
