B&H had them in limited amounts for a while. I was thinking it would be kind of cool to have a Schneider 35mm f2.0, but it proved to be even more expensive than the Pentax version...

This has undoubtedly been asked before, but here goes. Are Samsung
cameras/lenses corresponding to similar Pentax items not sold in the USA?
I recall that Samsung started a line of dSLR cameras and lenses (badged
as Schneider) a year or two ago, but have never heard of or seen them
since.

I think Samsung's days of re-badging Pentaxes is over.  They stopped
doing that with the GX20 (the equivalent of the K20D). They are more
interested now in developing their NX models.

I don't know if the re-badged models were ever sold in the USA (they
probably were) but as they are now superseded, it's not surprising that
they aren't seen.
