<p>Angelo, The reason some high end cameras, like Leicas, are at full MSRP is because of dealer agreements and demand. I recall a dealer I dealt with, who sold Sinar and Broncolor, lost their dealership because they were discounting. You can always try to negotiate on extra batteries or other intangibles.</p>

<p>Well, there is one source (other than buying a hot one). Used ones are available, especially if you don't want the very latest model.</p>

<p>On eBay, used ones don't sell for much less (actually paid, not <em>asking</em> price which is much higher, often more than new), but around US$6,800 seems to be average.</p>
