hey gang, i want to share my excitement. after thinking and thinking i ordered the 40D with the 28-135 lens at future shop.
i will be selling my 30D, or i may keep it as a second body, still contemplating that decision.

i was eyeing the futureshop website for a few days when i saw a 'deal'.
the 'kit' for $1399, i went to order it a couple days ago, but they were sold out.
a few mins ago i checked again, there were 2 left, so i snagged an order, got confirmation via email that it wil be processed asap.
then i go back to the ad and see that those two are gone already! i got one (hopefully) and someone else was watching and waiting as well.

so now i hurry up and wait :(

yep i'll get on that asap.
on another note, i net with the prospective buyer of my 30D. she says the futureshop sales guy will sell her a 30D for $899. i said go for it! she asked if i'd let my 30D go for $500, i said nh, don't think so.

i see bhphoto has 30D for $899 new, $799 used. so i am in the right ballpark, $750 or so i am asking from her.
