Woot! They price matched it...$400.51 (tax included). The only downside was that I was waiting behind this Chinese woman trying to talk to a Sony rep about her camera. Waited about 40 minutes...worth it though. Now I need a CF card...

 

is the printout supposed to say 399 or 370? im a bit confused.

bugsbunny, which sears did you goto?

 

what zip code can i enter to get it for 370? and will i still be able to use it?

help! im getting this in like 45 minutes.

 

okay city of industry and west covina sears are both thumbs down.

 

Nice

 

did you not realize that this weekend is a tax-free weekend in atlanta???? you could've gotten that for 370 plus NO TAX!!!! oh well. sorry about that.

 

What the hell, did they already change it back to 699? I was just browsing it and it showed 399, but then it changed all of a sudden to 699.

Edit: wtf, it shows 399 again.

 

What if they ask that I just go to officedepot and buy it there? Just tell them it's out of stock or something?

 

Btw, Sears' pricematch plus program sells you the item for the price of another retailer + 10% off. So it would be $400-$40 = $360 before tax.

 

it doesnt work

 

does this come with the lens?

 

Ahaha...okay this is what I did. I followed Jae's directions and printed out the Office Depot price which is $399.99. Then I took the sheet and went to Pasadena Sears (Rosemead & Colorado Blvd.) and showed it to them. I guess they were kind of busy so the guy just browsed the sheet and said I need my manager's approval. He called the manager over and they were talking about some non-work related things. The manager just swiped his little approval card and voila! $399 - 10% + tax = $400.51.

Yea it comes with the lens, battery, software, charger but no CF disk. Which I'm going to look for...right now.

Edit: Just checked officedepot.com and still says $399

 

good deal mn...

 

I wasn't about to risk waiting for a week just to save $20.

6% tax isn't too bad. Cobb tax ftw! (even though it used to be 5%)

 

I don't think people are reading the instructions. They're on page 2, go look for them.

I think Costco has a 2GB Ultra II CF card for $20. Not sure about that, but that's what I heard.

I got lucky and got a 2GB Ultra II CF for $16 at Staples.

 

I just ordered a Sandisk 2GB online for $20 shipped. Hopefully it comes soon.

So I was curious about the camera and researched it a little bit. This price is great but I found places that sell it for $490. Given that the camera is about 2 years old I would say that's about right. Can't wait to use it though. An 8mp DSLR camera for $400? Can't beat that w/ a baseball bat. Thanks to the OP!

 

not bad! Now lets trade with my D40!

 

XT with kit lens goes for $550 online from a reputable dealer. Most of the lower priced camera stores are scammers.

 

Sure! For $370

 

haha. good point. my friend just told me about this tax thing this weekend. unfortunately, i'll be out of town this weekend. i guess it doesn't matter anyway though because i'm broke right now.
