Hi, Shel. I don't check the PDML very often these days since I had tosell my LX and 67II, but I popped in today and read about your retailadventures. Are you looking for a DS2? Which questions do you have? We have themin stock at Don's Photo in Winnipeg. While Canadian prices can't goas low as US prices, I would be happy to give you a lower price thanyou'll find at any other Canadian store. Let me know off-list ifyou're interested or if you have any questions you'd like answeredcorrectly. :) Cheers, Chris Brogden
