Leica US price increase coming on January 1st because of Trump’s new tax on European products


The Leica US price increase I reported a few months ago is going into effect on January 1, 2020. The Leica Q2 and SL2 prices will remain unchanged.  This price increase is triggered by the new Trump 25% US tax on select European products.

If you are planning to purchase a new Leica product before the price increase, check one of our US sponsors: Adorama | B&H | PopFlash | Leica Miami | Leica Palm Beach | Leica Soho | Tamarkin | Classic Connection.

This year Leica already increased their prices in the UK and Germany.

Here is the new Leica US price list:
