I was on another forum (shame shame) and someone posted a link to this saying they ordered it and it was fine, except that it took forever. He said it came with the 1 year warranty and was not gray market. I'm guessing it's somebody that works for this company. Anyone else ever heard of it? It's sad how man people get "took" by places like this. It says they're a member of the BBB but I couldn't find them there or on Reseller Ratings.

Cameras, Electonics - Daily Deal Digital
 
There is a 100 rebate at B&H so you can get it for 1400 or so. That other place, as mentioned... they must charge an incredible shipping rate... delivered by a pimped out Cadillac, I hear... lol
 
risky as the domain was registered june 26th 2009... no history. Fact is... Canon and Nikon have set prices on all their products which makes for a relatively small margine of profit for the small stores. Rarely will you find deals like that from a small chain (or even larger). High volume stores like adorama and BH have more leverage with Canon and thus can deliver at lower prices... but not even that low.

If it is too good to be true.. it is.
 
Sounds too risky. I would love to get that lans for $600, but I am really leaning toward this being a scam. If anyone tries it, let us know. :)

I've found several lenses that cost $0...there's no way this could be legit.

Yeah - they list the retail price as $0, while their price is $600.

Why would I pay them $600 when this lens retails everywhere else for $0??



:lmao:




Wow, did anyone look at those accessories down the side? I think they just moved all of the decimals one place to the right...

...Looking around more on their site.


Wow, I can buy a 2 hour battery for the low price of $200. Or, I could go for the 10 hour battery for a mere $400...

The people at B&H must be fools. They only charged me about $50 for my 2-3 week battery. The people at Wal-Mart are even dumber, they only chared me a few dollars for the 2-3 month battery that my 10s takes.


WOW! I just noticed that the Canon GL2 (camcorder) is also free! ($2-3000 elsewhere)

Maybe if you were 5 years old and had no concept of the value of money...
Anyone else who believes that $400 is a resonable price for a camera battery would get no sympathy from me.
 
I can't believe people buy from these scam sites. These sites crop up every day because so many suckers are taken in by 50% off BS pricing. I should start a site selling D700's for $500 and make a few hundred thousand, then retire in Mexico.

I mean seriously, do you think some fly by night operation that registered their domain yesterday could really under cut B&H, Adorama or even Amazon.com by 50% and be legit?
