I decided to go to amazon.ca instead because im in canada. Let me say boy do their collection suck compared to the american site. But i found this and it seems waay to good to be true.

No way that can be any good at that price, it's best not to scrimp on lights you get what you pay for

thats what i was thinking i mean a bulb itself costs that much.

 

[Robin Usagani]

Damn.. canadian $ is worth $400 USD!

 

[Kbarredo]

Yet we still pay more on books and clothing

I'm betting that's a missprice - bet you they change the price after you place the order and wont' honour it. I mean even a totally budget set from HongKong would be more than that!

For that price, if I lived in Canada, I might order it anyway just to see.

Might?? I tried ordering it, but it wont ship to the US! Overread is right, they probably wouldnt honor it anyway.

Looks like the set is actually $336, down at the bottom of the page; the $18.45 is a mis-print.

Rule of Thumb when buying photography equipment:

If it seems too good to be true, it is.

I don't think this is a scam, but there are so many scams out there for gullible beginning photographers, it's not even funny. Next time you see something like that, just assume it's too good to be true, and move along. There's no reason creating a thread to ask people what you already know.
