[QUOTE="rocketman122, post: 456661, member: 14443"] why? whatd they say? did they have a superiority attitude, or condescending in tone? they cant sell price performance because theyre selling at crazy prices. theres a huge price difference between them and the 3rd party crew. the price performance ratio is bad. nikon 24-70 AFS sells for $1900 tamron 24-70 VC sells for $1300 the nikon is not $600 better. maybe $200. especially not with that stiff zoom ring and no VC nikon 70-200 VR2 $2400 tamron 70-200 VC $1400 here its even more substantial. $1000 difference. lets not even start with the ART lenses. there is no compromise buying an art lens at all. its completely win win win. price/build/performance they sell a brand with history and a status (in their eyes) but I see nikon as a tarnished brand. not what it was in my eyes. I do not look to them with respect like I once did. I think they crossed the line with the way they act to their veteran loyal buyers. [/QUOTE]
