Bought two cameras via their deals. No complaints from me.

I may be a bit biased, but I'm pretty sure CPW is legit. :-)

What makes you think they are “sketchy “?

Most of the deals they post are from third party vendors (Canon itself, B&H, KEH, etc.), they just earn a referral fee, if I understand it correctly.

If you’re talking about their “Street price”, they work more closely with some Canadian vendors. I’ve purchased a kit thru it before and it worked as advertised.

So I’d say legit.
