Just came across this great deal at sigma4less.com .
ResellerRatings shows it has good ratings but I personally have never bought from them.

Either way, here it is: http://www.sigma4less.​com …slr_camera_body​__usa_.htm (external link)

They do pretty well on RSR:

This isn't the best deal going though, there are several authorized dealers selling the 5D2 on eBay and in combination with Bing make the net cost about $100 less.

May not be the best deal but it's good for those who want to avoid ebay.
I guess photo4less (which is sigma4less) also has a Bing rebate of 2-5% as well:

Why would a buyer want to avoid buying from a known reputable authoized dealer on eBay?

I don't know why. I'm not saying "I" wouldn't do it, but I know that there's people that will not buy anything from ebay, authorized dealer or not. That's all I'm saying.

Some people like spending more money. I know someone who won't buy on eBay because he got burnt one time. Doesn't make much sense when store like Adorama, Cameta, Profeel, and Beach all sell on eBay.

I agree. You hear about these ebay horror stories but there are really good sellers there, especially the big retailers like you've mentioned.

I thought they sold on eBay and you get the Bing cashback that way. Plus eBay bucks.

So where is the bright side in that ???? ;-)a

Now a good deal on a 5D MK II on the other hand would be a bright side :-)

I have purchased from photo4less(sigma4less) and they are actually easy to work with. First they sent me an email and wanted me to call them. in my head I thought "oh great here it is.. the upsell whatever tactics" but they just asked my name confirmed mailing address and told me it will be shipped out immediately. I got my item in 3 days.

I do know that they are not authorized sigma dealer. So use your best judgement. I am happy with my transaction but depends on what you buy and u might not get ur warranty honored.
