[QUOTE="carguy, post: 180551, member: 12521"] I should have clarified, [I]most [/I]reputable retailers will have equipment like that for the same price. Many online vendors MAY offer things cheaper for a variety of reasons. With something like new glass, I'd much rather pay a little more buying from a reputable resource I believe I will have no issues with in the event there is a problem :) Regarding Amazon, anyone can sell on Amazon. You need to be sure WHO you are buying an item THROUGH Amazon (just like ebay, although ebay does not to ANY product fulfillment). Overstock - You have no idea where that product came from. Might be legit, might be 'gray box', might be refurbished. It's hit or miss. Over $200 off a $590 item is a lot of money. One has to ask why is it so cheap? When it comes to electronics and things like that, I take no chances personally. It's like buying tires from a site like tirerack.com.
