Where did you see it that cheap? I'd be weary, since the reputable sites are selling a G6 for about $560. Unless it is used or a refurb. unit, I don't think anyone would part with such a newly introduced unit for that cheap.

do not buy any thing untill the store trying to sell you the camera is looked up on this site and has a good rating.

more than likely, its a scam site... 600 bucks is cheap for one.

I'd like to post another note about Best Buy stores. The prices in the stores and on their website are different. Their web prices are cheaper. When you go to the store mention the website price and they will match it. If you say nothing you will pay the full in-store price.

Yep, they are crooks:

Not only are they crooks, their website front is a Yahoo! store, which is supposedly "Hacker Safe". Tracy, you are asking to be fleeced if you buy from them. Instead consider buying it from here for $541 + shipping:

Their Rating: http://www.resellerrat​ings.com/seller4576.ht​ml (external link)

Good Luck. 8)

I got my G6 from www.ibuydigital.com (external link) and they got pretty good ratings on that site. It just arrived here yesterday and they haven't even billed me yet which is kind of odd.
