Looks like it to me. I have heard bad things about them.(just search for them on here) Also, that is a whole lot of 5's without any complaint....most likely false reviews.
I'd stay away if I were you

Been here a year and over 1500 posts and this is the first time you have heard of BestPriceCamera? Surely this is a troll post as BestPriceCamera is lambasted at least one a week if not more.


Not sure why, but call me JJ.
I used to hate math but then I realised decimals have a point.

If this were from Dell I bet people would order it. And then the board would be filled with people complaining that the item won't ship for four months.
Really, is it any different?

I've seen a lot of posts about different places but I don't log them in my head because I usually buy from one or two reputable places. I just saw that price and had dreams of lollipops dancing in my head!:lol:

Dell wouldn't try to upsell you. They wouldn't try to convince you that you have to buy a mount for your lens separately. They would provide reasonable customer service and they have a rating higher than .13/10 on resellerratings.com. and I could go on and on....

Not everyone checks on every "Is This A Good Deal" post.
