HAs anyone dealt with pcvideoonline? They have the G3 for $645!

I don't know specifically about pcvideoonline, but i work in the photo industry and i can tell you that there is something fishy about that price.

NYC (location of pcvideoonline) is notorious for grey market garbage (or bait and switch). Be careful dealing with these people. I for one would never buy any photo equipment from these kind of stores. Buy at a known store like Ritz Camera, or Amazon.com. You pay more, but you know that it's not a piece of junk that comes with a MAC 3 year warranty. (If your camera came with a MAC 3 year warranty, and no Manufacturer warranty Right away you can tell something is wrong)

Just my 2 cents.

resellerratings.com gives 3 negative reviews and a low rating - I would avoid them.

So now we have to decide if the ratings companies are reputable in my mind. Imaging resource users give them good recviews and Resellerratings gives them negative reviews!

Who do YOU believe?

Go back to that page and read what it says on the tippy top:

"NOTE - Imaging Resource does not have direct relationships with the dealers on this page. Read the merchant ratings before deciding to buy! "

Why not listen to common sense?

It is not an endorsement from Imaging Resource and was never meant to be.

I didn't say that imaging resource rates them high....I said that their users do.

I should add that my intent was not to criticize imagingresource or resellerratings.com. I woulld just like to point out that opinions are free and you get what you pay for.

I ordered an s45 last Thursday night around 10pm. After giving them my personal info including credit card, I received an email requesting I call to confirm the order. That was when I got the feeling I was in for a sales pitch. One of the main reasons I order online is to avoid a sales pitch. Well it was after their open hours in NY so I called the next morning and simply cancelled the order. I will say this much, they immediately emailed me confirmation of the cancellation. That was my experience. for what it's worth.
