whoa

someone's got a big paycheque coming or maybe a big tax return or something eh

Did you check the prices in Canada? Are you saving a lot by buying from the US? Don't forget you'll be paying taxes on these when they cross the border as well.

Meowjin 02-08-2007 06:07 PM

I just made some excellent returns on an investment ;)

And yeah I did check the price i paid for those pocketwizards ARE CHEAP. Usually i just compare by going to leos as leos has the best prices in town IMO. I could have saved some money from ordering the filters from a diffrent site but i got express shipping because i need the lights by the 14th. I shouldn't pay duties as this is photo gear and photo gear is exempt from duties, but i will be paying 14% tax.

Meowjin 02-08-2007 06:24 PM

Fuck I just ordered 2 filter holders.

Anyone looking for a X-Pro Filter Holder?

I'll sell it to you for the price i got it for.

laurencepak 02-08-2007 11:24 PM

oh wow..why the X-Pro? i have a P..the one that fits wide angle lenses.

laurencepak 02-08-2007 11:37 PM

There is a "red tag sale" at sterlingtek.com

if anyone is interested, go take a look.

a very interesting thread on dpreview about camera pricing on big stores such as the B&H, compared to small brick and mortar stores.

i haven't finished reading, it, but there is a very lengthy but informative response on page 3 by someone who has worked as a nikon sales rep

FU b&h. They changed my shipping method from UPS express to UPS world saver and said I chose it. I took a snapshot of my receipt and sent it to them. THEY DONT EVEN OFFER UPS WORLD SAVER.

Also Lauren. LD pays 2830 for a 5d.

laurencepak 02-11-2007 09:56 PM

LD pays 2830 for a 5D, u mean canadian right,

What local stores sell Tamron lenses? I tried Kerrisdale Camera but they don't have the lens I want in stock. Just wondering what other stores may have it.

Senna4ever 02-12-2007 10:59 AM

Leo's. Inter-Pro Photo had a bunch of Tamrons in stock at the time they shut down. The owners might still have some deadstock in storage. Which lens are you looking for?


....WAITAMINNIT....WHY DO YOU NEED AN SLR LENS??!??!?! You getting one? :D

Meowjin 02-12-2007 11:03 AM

no no hes not. He just going to make an adapter to attach it to his s2.

77civic1200 02-12-2007 11:29 AM

I'm looking for the Tamron 17-50 F2.8
I managed to find one at Dunne and Rundle downtown, but if there is other options I'd love to hear them. You probably have the owners home number on your cell don't you =)


And I'm doing what Majin said *shifty eyes*

Lens & Shutter.

I bought the Tamron 17-50 when it first came out last year, got them to price match Vistek.ca at $479.99 when everyone else was selling it for $519.99

Good lens, too!

77civic1200 02-12-2007 02:13 PM

I'm guessing you sold it already then eh?

77civic1200 02-12-2007 02:22 PM

Beauty, I just called L&S, they have a "few" in stock, and they "may" be able to price match vistek. Best result so far

Mananetwork 02-13-2007 07:16 PM
