Take a good look at Banana Republic's website. Read the copy and pay attention to color scheme graphics and tone. Did you read the review when a customer refused to purchase accessories what they said to the customer when they called to confirm order and how Banana Republic hung-up. Just like Bestprices and Enterprise hung-up when I tried to get details about the product, did not even let me finish my question. Poor Contact information and About Us. Crude template kind of storefront web setup. I am just learning all this as I try to purchase a Nikon D40 after having searched everywhere for a Panasonic DMC FZ30K that I was unable to find at a descent price. :mad2:

Yeah, always check Reseller Ratings!

Oh, and Beach Camera (good on Reseller), has a D50 for 380$, so you might wanna check that out.

Run a mile! These guys are nothing but a typical Brooklyn scam operation, running a "bait and switch" scheme. You order the camera, they call you and try to make you add all sorts of expensive extras. If you refuse, you will be told your camera is a gray market model, and will be on back order - permanently. They will never deliver the camera at the advertised price - period.

These people are the scum of the earth - I cannot understand why the New York AG hasn't closed them all down and thrown them in jail.
