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.

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.

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 http://forums.dpreview.com/forums/re...1972476&page=1 | |

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.

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*

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!
