Bloody hell! Is that site a one off, temporary thing? I might actually have a chance of getting a 3ccd cam now! (..although it'll still take like 10 years )

i dont think so, but damn does it have some good prices. i called them to ask if they were grey market pre released cameras, and they said no, everything if new from the factory. Which is real cool.

If it's too good to be true... it could, just possibly, and I don't want to sound pessimistic here, turn out not to be true at all. Check out ratings of the company, put the company name in google, check the number of backlinks in google and the sites PR. That'll give you a feel for how old the company is and if anyone's ever got their fingers burnt.
