Has anyone bought from Primotronix?
« on: August 15, 2012, 05:02:52 PM »
Has canon 5D for 1,150 and 70-200 USM lens for 1759.  Sounds like good prices but don't know if they're reputable.

NO, but with a deal that good you know it can't be trustworthy.  Its worth your time, energy and peace of mind to spend a few more $ and go to bigger dealers like Amazon or B&H.  They're reputable and worth the extra money, period.
I would stay away from online retailers like....well I'd better not say so I don't get sued.

Best of Luck to you

Agree with Markoe, but just out of curiosity, where are you finding those prices? I went to their website and the 70-200 listed at that price is the Mark I version. I'm not seeing any 5D IIs or IIIs at the price you mention.

All their other prices seem pretty much in line with other retailers.

so sorry... I meant the 7D.  Thanks for the suggestions. One other question: Where would you suggest looking for a good used lens? I'm guessing there are reputable sellers people go to?
