Used price fall?

[kai.zorki]

Hey guys,

i made my decision to buy a x100, so far so good. The Photokina is near and fuji will probably announce the x200. The used prices for the x100 are around 600-750€ in germany.
Do you expect the prices to go even lower?
I mean in the 150€ categorie not just 50€ or so.
Then i would wait for the Photokina and buy one of the cheaper used models and perhaps they will be of a younger production date.
What do you think, is it better to wait or to buy now?

I think I saw one in the UK for £550 used, at a dealer, so I'd imagine that prices will indeed go a bit lower than 600 or 750 Euros. Photokina is not far away, I'd wait. I doubt anything will happen to increase the price of an X100, it can only go one way.

Well, even if a X200 is announced in September, it probably won't be released until March 2013. Prices won't go down until then... are you prepared to wait to save a little bit of cash or would you rather use the camera?
