I have been shopping the 5D for a time, but this price can't be right. Website says it is brand new....what is the catch though? Has anyone ever dealt with this place?

You have to buy the $1500 "Accessory kit" too.

Damn...what a bunch of scum those people at that company are. After reading those reviews, it's sad that people like that are able to stay in business :(

Yea, I know. All you have to do is type in "Canon 5D prices" in Yahoo and you can get to this website that says they are a "Featured Merchant". There are also a couple other there with the same price...

US$2299 is the lowest you'll find from a LEGITIMATE store. If the price looks too good to be true then RUN away! It'll save you a lot of money and headaches.
