You might want to read some of their reviews before dealing with them.

If it sounds too good to be true.....it is.


Canon 40d, some lenses, lots of odd accessories - some of which I never use.

Wrong. If it sounds too good to be true, run like hell! :shock: :D


5D and holy trinity of primes. Now the 90mm TS-E TS-E fly bit me. I hate these forums.

I just ordered one, called the store to make sure they have it in stock, and will pick up after work. I shoped at this store all the time, but never shoped at their online store. I'm very suprised their online rating is so low.

When prices are that low, often items are missing from the kit such as battery, strap, charger, etc. Sometimes it is not such a bargain when you have to purchase those items separately.

At any rate, I hope you get a good deal !!!

Pick up a 17 - 40mm f/4 L. It's a great walk around lens. They must of only had 1 at that price the 10D is back up to $1500 and none are available at this time.

Greetings all. I've been reading this forum since the creation of this site back in the G1 days. I had to join in order to comment on this thread. I went to the Richardson, Texas MicroCenter store after reading this thread on Tuesday. Sure enough, they had 5 of the 10Ds in stock along with at least 2 of the Digital Rebels. At the $1199 and $800 prices. Needless to say, one of the 10Ds now belongs to me. I previously had a Digital rebel that I purchased last November. My wife laid claim to it, so instant justification for the 10D purchase. Just to provide you with an update. As of today the MicroCenter store still had at least 1 of each camera in stock.
I am not sure how long the sale lasts, but they do have a big banner hanging out front of the store stating "20% of digital cameras".

Good luck to those still looking.

So many toys, so little time.... :D


30-D and a bunch of L's
