So in light of my recent eBay problem (see my other thread on this), I went to MPB to get a quote on my newly-returned S1. At the same time I asked for a quote for my S5 since there is an offer on the new S1iie that reduces its price to £1899 plus a 10% uplift voucher to an MPB sale. Anyhow, this is the MPB quote:

So, with the 10% uplift, I'd get £940 which would make the S1iie net out at £959. I'm sort of half tempted, but it's more than a little indulgent since I really only use the S5 as a backup and it does that job perfectly well.
But - what I found strange about the quote is that the S5 is valued higher than the S1. Except for its size, the S1 is the better camera in practically every department. Strange world.
