Tiger,

If there's been an actual wholesale price drop, then B&H, Adorama, and 
CameraWorld will drop their prices (although not necessarily at the same 
time). 

Otherwise, you're probably seeing the "bait" part of a typical "bait and 
switch" ripoff technique. 

I know that not everyone here is in love with photo.net, but one really 
great resource that they have is their neighbor-to-neighbor database.  
Before you try to purchase something from an ad in the back of Popular 
Photography, you should go to photo.net and see how many people have been 
ripped off by the company that you're looking at.  Here's a link to their 
page:
