Anyone heard of DigitalOutlets.net?

I gave them a call yesterday They sell gray market cameras for a err... low... price. But, then again, they're gray market, so that isn't too surprising. But, they told me in lieu of the Canon warranty, they have their own that's good for a year, and covers all the same things the Canon one does. Not sure if they're 100% legit though. Their website has only been registered for a few months and I can't find very many reviews on them that don't seem like they were made up.

Anyone have any experience with them? Has anyone ever heard of them?

If a deal sounds to good to be true, it probably is.

Buy from: Amazon, B&H, Adorama, Crutchfield, and other reputable dealers other posters can provide for you.

What more do you need to know than that?

If you want to play it safe and don't care if its a grey market, i'd buy from ebay

Interesting reviews at http://www.resellerrat​ings.com …Digitaloutlets_​net/page/2. All are very positive, especially of an individual named Scott. But of course reviews can be faked. A common theme of the reviews is a call back from the vendor to insure you really are getting what you want. This seems (to me) to be a bit unusual.

I'm always reluctant to give such places credit card information but in this instance I do see they accept PayPal, which offers some protection between you and the seller.

Keep us posted should you make a purchase.

The other consistent message is "ordered wrong item, Scott put me right". Bait and switch by another name?

I agree that ebay is the better place to get grey market stuff. It's virtually impossible to fake the feedback rating there, so you will know what a seller is like.

I just went ahead and ordered a refurbished 6D from Canon Direct. Play it safe, etc.

But if anyone is willing to take the risk, and they're legit, keep us updated!

Canon Direct is $1519 + tax for a refurb?

There are authorized dealers selling for $1499 no tax.

Well, I ordered through Canon Loyalty Program - $1360+tax. It was about $1478.

Did you mean they're selling brand new or refurbished for $1499 no tax?
