I saw this one, but waited until today to act. Looks like they are gone for now...

Unless it specifically listed Amazon as the seller, and not a third party (Joe's Fly-by-night Scameras), I'd question the validity of the deal. There have been several "too good to be true" 5D prices on Amazon mentioned here (one very recently) that have all turned out to be a third party abusing the Amazon marketplace.

It smells too much like a scam. The dealer is in Danbury CT and when I asked to stop buy to pick up the camera, I am told it will be shipped from Europe.
