The XA *ususlly* commands a higher price. 
The XA lens is a faster f 2.8 whereas the XA-2 has a f 3.5 (I think).
The XA is rangefinder focus, whereas the XA-2 is a 3-zone focus set-up.
The two most common flashes are the A-11 and the A-16 (a bit more powerful).
Although the XA is "worth more", asking prices vary widely to say the least. 
Anywhere from $49 to $149 (US). I've seen the same price quoted for a camera 
alone as well as ones with flash included. I'd say $69 to $119 is more common.
