Maybe because it costs them more, or is not as professional as just using a credit card? I don't know, I wouldn't rely on PayPal for my online shopping though.

I'm still chuckling that people are trying to sell them for more than new...

I sold my last one over a week ago and got out of the hobby. It did help pay for a HUGE portion of my own M3 though. It was a GREAT idea while it lasted. Now, one is lucky to make enough profit to buy lunch. Thank goodness for the free enterprise system where one can make money if they have a bit of courage not to fear risk. To put down people who take such risks, especially when successful, speaks volumes. The great thing about every person who bought an M3 from me was extremey thankful they found mine and was able to buy it.

trying...

Since the Canon dealer locator is quite simple and effective the word trying is the key here. When it first came out yes, but now, anyone who buys a Mk.III for more than msrp is lazy or just a gearhead/fanboy. You can find them at msrp if you actually put more effort in than typing a m a z o n into your address bar.

And yes, I have made profit from camera gear. Buying distress items or items that require simple repair (or missing parts) can be profitable.

sometimes i wish my credit cards only had $300 limits

^Ditto...I have 2 credit accounts and man, I could easily get the 70-200 IS. so hard to resist.

You make a good point Cosworth. I've observed just from watching Ebay and the things people do to pay more than MSRP is redonkulous IMO.

ummm...the same people that can afford a $4500 camera

I remember my college days, my credit card limit was $200!!
Just enough for a thrifty fifty with change to spare for beer
