Barry, That is not a good idea. I’ve owned four digital cameras and there are a lot of scams going on involving deals overseas (I assume you’re in the US, right?). These may not be specific to your situation but is an example of people wanting to save several hundred dollars on what is normally a pretty expensive product being gullible and not getting what they expected. Furthermore, you have the issue of warranties. Most, if not all manufacturers code their serial numbers to specific countries. For example, with Nikon, if you bought what is called a "grey market" camera originally meant to be sold outside the US Nion would not repair it under warranty. Neither would Japan let you import it into their country to have it repaired. Nikon a good camera, so why care?……what if it is dropped and breaks? What it, just, what if, it fails on its own? You have a very expensive door stop. Stop by rec.photo.digital and lurk a bit. Also dpreview.com is a superior digital camera related web site. People are happy to answer questions about various models and dealers. Perhaps someone has actually encountered the Grand Canary sales situation. Be very careful. For example, go to pricewatch.com or mysimon.com and take a look at prices for a specific camera (say the Nikon 990 for example). The prices will run in a recognizable range. That is your guide. These vendors use dot com non-brick-and-mortar sales so these are about as low as prices go. So…..if someone is offering a VERY low price be wary. It’s your money. Good luck Rich
