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

There is no wait. Only an authorization check which is done at the shop that is a participant in the student purchase program (B&H, Freestyle are two of note). Then the student walks out with the M9 if it's in stock.

soon...

what i find sad, is that even with 1K DISCOUNT...I STILL CAN'T AFFORD AN M9!

A Resounding YES.....
Although I already own a 50mm F/1.1 Nokton.
Maybe I'd get a used CL and get a Total Overhaul done by DAG or Sherry. With saved $1k... Although I don't have the starting money either...IF I DID... Go to the top of my post...

I thought I couldn't do it as well. I have been unemployed for over a year, doing some freelance here and there. I sold a lot of unused film equipment in the last couple of months. I have a lot more to clear out. It was the only way to finance this. A good portion of this was financed by the sale of my M7 and Toyo 4x5 field camera. I figured it was now or never!

It feels good to lightened up and pare down.
