    If that continues, the lensrentals business model is looking like absolute genius.

    Watching the prices help me know the "personality"of a camera store.so I know which one like to have reasonable price and which one tends to "rip off".[]


    anyway, for the price of 7D, i'm pretty sure it was between $1430-$1470 in most of the time last year in some ebay stores(Canon Authorized, US version, brand new, without rebate, fast shipping, good service). so I think those price watching or price charts should include these stores too.


    $1700 for a 7D? no, thanks[]

    My lens purchases the last six months have been better investments than the stock market! [:P]
