I am interested in buying a Grey market Fuji 27 mm pancake lens from this company. Has anyone had dealings with them? Price is 289 dollars including shipping. Usa lens is 449. Any input would be appreciated

Very good. Speed is phenomenal. I purchased a camera from them, they are based in Hong Kong, from ordering to delivery in the UK was 32 hours. It was possible to track the item on every step of its transit. You will not be disappointed.

I don’t know who “Digital Rev” is, but KEH, right here in the U.S. of A., has one for sale at $313 with caps - not grey market. “You pays your money and you takes your chances.” For $24, Georgia is a lot closer if you encounter a problem.

All true. Used vs new international KEH is only in silver. Will see
This small, unobtrusive lens will capture the same shots, regardless of what color its exterior is.
$24 dollars is pretty inexpensive for peace of mind.

If you buy a graymarket camera. Make sure you have a place to take it to for service. Just to case something goes wrong like you accidentally drop it. I had a gray market sent to Nikon (did not know it was Grey market) for service. Nikon would not service it. The camera store in Orlando where I bought it did not tell me it was Grey market at the time of purchase. They allowed me to return it and they gave me a brand new D500 for 300 extra dollars. I did fix what was broken before returning to the store. There’s a guy name Rick on the side repairs cameras lives in Colorado.

I checked. Fujifilm will repair grey market at standard rates. 450 new for pancake lens at b and h seems very high for Chinese made lens without an aperture ring. Plan is to go grey or just wait for next Fuji rebates. Don’t absolutely need lens but you guys know what gas pains are like
