I've dealt with B&H with excellent results at good prices. I bought my *ist DS at www.buydig.com at a good price when new, also several Pentax point & shoot models. I'd recommend them. KEH is a good source of used stuff, but not cheap. The rest is 'Buyer Beware', if it's too good you won't get it! Regards, Bob S.
