To buy even one filter here on Guam (even the cheap ones like Zeikos), it'll cost about $40 for just one. I bought a Hoya (that's right, Hoya. lol) filter SET for $50. There have been a lot of people getting DSLR's but a lot of them treat their cameras like it's just a digital.

I honestly think it depends on location. There aren't that much photography shops here and whatever there are jack up their prices. Being that B&H has really great shipping options and to the fact that they EVEN ship to Guam wins my vote. For the time being, I'm online!
