I found this company http://www.soniccamera​s.com (external link) off of the Buy.com website. They "Claim" to have Brand New 5d's with US Warranties for only $1149? Are there different version 5d's?

They also claim to have the 24-105 f/4L IS for only $699 again New with US Warranty. I just paid $1059 for mine 2 weeks ago.

Has anyone ever done business with this company before.

You know what they say about things being too good to be true but man these sure are tempting.

If it is too good to be true, it usually is.

0.00 out of 10 isn't exactly a ringing endorsement.

Saved way more than frustration. ;) I don’t know how some of these guys stay in business but they do. I guess there are enough people who shop on price alone and don’t do the background homework.


Not sure why, but call me JJ.
