Anybody ever ordered from this place? They seem to have really good prices and I called to make sure they aren't selling refurbs and they say they aren't - but who knows. From what I have been able to dig up online they seem to be reputable, but the price on the Drebel is $250.00 less than any other place I have seen it.

Comments - feedback - are my eyes decieiving me?

Which place?
You forgot to mention them

www.resellerratings.com

If they are way too cheap, then they probably are a con.
I have read that when they say 'Body Only' that is what them mean - no charger, battery cables or anything!

Looks pretty grim to me.....
I would spend the money and buy at a decent retailer....

Wow - that is a crappy rating - you weren't kidding. I bought mine from a local shop here in Denver just to support them. I don't mind the idea of paying a few extra bucks knowing I can walk in and get the service I might need.

But when I came across that price I couldn't believe it. Now I think I know why.

DO NOT ORDER FROM THEM...this is BROADWAY PHOTO'S partnered company....

If you have followed any threads in the last month, i am sure you have read mine and the troubles I have had with them. Also, this is a GREY market, not a Canon backed product.

I have called digital liquidators and spoke with them before I found out they are Broadway Photo.

TRUST ME ON THIS.... DO NOT order from them, pay the extra money and go with B&H, you wont get burned or be sorry....

oh, and by the way here is the storefront for Digital Liquidators...

ADDRESS: Broadway Photo, a.k.a. A&M Photo World LLC and Digital Liquidators

I really appreciate the feedback everyone! Like I said, I purchased my Drebel from a local dealer and was really just looking for some new glass. When I saw the price I was taken aback. After everything I've now read I will stay away from them and stick with B&H and Canoga Camera.

Thanks again everyone.

Thanks to a screw up and a cupon, I was able to get mine for 800 from ultimate electronics. Can't beat that
