I live in CA and I feel very fortunate to be able to get an SP-01, although I had to pay a premium for it. As many in this forum have said... it's well worth it.

Why are you paying a premium for a stock SP-01?
I just meant it costs more here than outside CA

You need to pay the extra fees and taxes, but the gun should cost the same as it does in Arizona or Texas.
So MSRP is $680. The store sold it at $750 and after taxes and fees, it came up to $850. I have no idea what the cost is in Arizona or Texas, but when I first got the gun, I posted on this forum to ask if I had paid more than what it typically costs. Quite a few responded yes but worth it. So that's what I based it off of.

There may be a convenience or gotta have it now factor in there too. Shopping around in San Diego, $50-80 below msrp is good, in December I saw them for $599 ($682 out the door), but now I am seeing people advertising simply that they have them in stock for msrp.
At $750, it would be well worth checking with Bud?s. I got mine when they had them at $599, and they were fine to deal with, but I see they are out of stock right now.
I think the more we put up with the CA price gouging, the worse its going to get.
The ?California Premium? typically applies more to out of production and off roster guns.
But ya, for gotta have it now, you did pretty good.
