Attn Mike.P and other(?) Pentax owners

I got this from another forum and have not checked it, but...

Possible bargain for anyone with a K10D or K20D

Jessops have got Pentax D-BG2 Battery Grips for £49.97, fair old saving from
the RRP of £156.

Not sure how many or where, but they available for online delivery or
collect at store

When I read that I burst out laughing but soon realised it was because I was thinking of your lens stuck in UK customs

Well 5 of them turned up, one is on backorder (I doubt I will ever see that) and one is waiting to be picked up at my local (13 mile drive) Jessops store.
