Current 40D owner planning to buy a 7D. I really don't want a refurb, so please don't go there.

The current price after rebate (which ends Wednesday) is $1599. The price just before the current rebate started was actually $1499 on Amazon. Should I go ahead and order the 7D now, or wait and hope the price is still $1599 or better on Friday?

I'm in the same boat, looking for one this week and not sure of the timing. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

If you want it now I'd buy it. I wouldn't expect the 7D to be seen on any of the Black Friday offerings.

I found this price the other day searching for a 7D for myself... I don't know if the site is legit or not because the price seems so low.

Don't buy from butterfly - they have been known as a very poor reseller.

If you want the 7D - I'd just get it and enjoy it. I don't think any cameras other than the Rebels will be on special.
