Price increases Jan 1st 2016 ?

Having just purchased XT1 and 2 lenses in December , I now "had" in mind to pick up some more lens. ( These Fuji lens are addictive )

 

When checking back on B&H and Amazon I was very surprised to see the prices were now significantly more than in December. Maybe now the holiday season over the deals are too ?

 

This applied to lens as well as kits 

 

Saved me , I will now make do with what I have.

 

At least what I have is now worth more !!!!

Funny you should say so, someone else argued that they, at Fuji, have to sell at discounted prices now and in the months to come to meet future end of financial year term targets and that would explain special offers while you are now saying the opposite. Higher prices!

 

Variety and perception!

 

Prices are depending on many things and especially on the location of the buyer, fluctuation in the currency exchange rate might account for things like that but also taxation (VAT, for example, in some European countries this might have changed on 1st of January) Norway, should increase its lowest tariff of VAT in Europe from 8% to 10%.

 

In the NL we’ve seen the Fuji prices decreasing on at least two cameras: the X-T10 and the X-E2, of course we will see more of that following the introduction of new models later on in the January month.

Fuji has sales going about twice a year. The last ended on 12/26 in the US. Wait for the next or buy when you need it.
