Panasonic LX3K slides to $451

The sold and shipped by Amazon price of the Panasonic LX3K has dropped again. You can now get it sold and shipped by Amazon herself for $451 with free shipping and handling.

Please note that Amazon itself is not the featured seller on the aforementioned Amazon product page. There are third-party sellers offering it for less. As usual with unfamiliar sellers, do not buy unless you research them to your satisfaction.

To locate Amazon as the seller, look at the right side of the Amazon product page and locate the "More Buying Choices" box, right below the "Add to Cart" and "Add to Wish List" buttons. Then find the Amazon.com entry. If you are not a regular Amazon shopper, this is something you need to learn to do on a regular basis. Sometimes the lowest price by well-known sellers is in this box, instead of the featured spot.

For more on the camera, be sure to check the LX3 diary, and the mini-blog of its nemesis, the Canon S90is, which is shipping at $430 as you can see at the S90 stock status page.
