Websites for Camera - Buying!

[Stephanie218]

Hi again everyone,

I'm likely buying the Canon 350 D this weekend, and was talking to my parents about who to buy it through - I know a few of you use different websites. My dad is a pretty straight B&H guy, and I suggested Broadway Photo (bwayphoto.com) who he hadn't heard of, so he wanted some feedback to make sure they were legit before I spent that much money.

Any opinions?

TIA!

You can check out store reviews and compare prices here...

(and Broadway looks very suspicious! Stay away.)

I've used Newegg a few times and was very satisfied. There are plenty of other good ones too...)

I just had a superb experience with www.buydig.com.

Great prices, great service. No tax, free shipping!

My camera arrived just 48 hours after I ordered it.

My wife ordered a Sony MiniDV camcorder from them once(only once) and after she refused to order any over priced extras(including a battery and charger that they claimed did not come with the camera), they told her the camera was out of stock.

I have ordered 3 cameras and Projector from Buydig and I am always surprised how quik my items arrive.

I just bought my 20D from buydig in January ...up scaled shipping and had the camera within 24 hours (was very shocked)...I had a good experience with them. I have also bought from B&H Photo where then lens prices where nore agreeable to my wallet they arrived standard shipping in 2 days. Bags and goodies came from newegg with an arrival of 3 days....

bizrate is a fairly good site to get store ratings as well as checking them out on the BBB

I use B+H almost exclusively, had bad experience with Adorama (I think it's just my luck -- they forgot to ship my muslin--, not Adorama itself considering how highly regarded they are).
