I've seen worse, but not by much.

Not sure why, but call me JJ.

Please c heck out any merchant through this site before buying from someone that is questionable... www.resellerratings.co​m (external link)

My advice is stay with reputable merchants... Amazon, B&H, Adorama,
NewEgg...

I think most here paid a bit more. Why not order one and let us know how it works for you? :D

If it seems

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

This isn't too good to be true, just good. Get a refurbished 30D from Adorama for $640 with free shipping.

I have had my refurb 30D for a year now with no problems at all. I had to send two Canon DSLR cameras which I purchased new back to the Canon Service Center; each within the first 90 days. They have been working fine after their trip to the Service Center.

I have more confidence in the Quality Control of Canon Service Centers than I do in the Quality Control of the Canon Assembly Line. I will buy all my cameras refurbished from now on...
