    Anyhow, the gray market dealer gives about a month's warranty. If anything has to happen, it generally happens during the first 30 odd days of it's usage, generally.

    It's a personal choice in any-case. Someone wants to get his equipment with warranty, etc., then he/ she is free to do so.

                  Varun, what other lenses are you planning to get? And how do you find the 50mm f1.8? Any particular reasons for getting the 50 mil. and not the kit lens (18-55mm IS)?

                  I do not have the exact amount, but it might be somewhere around Rs.19k-20k or thereabouts!

                      you mean that there is a price difference of 8k if you buy it from china or there is a price difference of 8k if i buy it from grey market.
                      it retails for about 22k with bill and lens.

                      • @Nipun: That's just a guess. Actually, the more expensive the equipment, the more difference there is between the gray-market prices and the billed prices. However, for the exact price, you would need to enquire.
                        :)

                          No,I was saying that here when I inquired in gray market here he quoted me 16-18k..and the prices were varying.Moreover these goods come from china via Nepal which is near here and if I get it from Nepal it may be more cheaper!

                            thanx man i also thought it would be around 17k

                            @aryan
                            i heard chandni chowk is the best grey market for cameras and optics.
                            you know any trusted shop to which i can go or from which you purchase your equipment.
                            it becomes lot easy if i know a shop which is good then i can bargain at other shops.
