Good deal on DVX100B?

[Johnny Rose]

I need some advice. I have a deal on the table that would get me a zero hour 100b for $2000. Problem im having is where it was purchased from. The owner bought it from http://www.expresscameras.com. These guys rating is horrible on ressellerratings.com and are notorious for grey market items. I'm almost certain that this particular unit is a grey market item and I'm not sure wether to jump on it or not.
The whole warranty issue worries me a lil. Let me know what you guys think. Help me make this decission. Thanks

This site smells like sh*t to me. Who in their right mind would sell a brand new dvx100b for $1049.00. Even if they try to upsell accessories that should be included but how much can they sell it for? Only suckers will fall for this, i would stay clear of these guys.

I bought a Panasonic FZ30 from them 2 years ago and it was perfect. Not grey market and came with waranty.

anyone buy a dvx100b from them? it's so cheap.

 

[strancali]

come on guys, do you really think they can can purchase a dvx100b for 1049.00 yet alone sell it for that price.

I think my best bet is to get the serial number to the unit and call panasonic to see if the warranty is good on the unit.

It is gray market and no they will not sell it to you for $1049 unless you buy about $3000 worth of overpriced **** from them. Oh and then they will overcharge you on shipping......

They are a bunch of assholes!

Resellerratings.com is the best site ever.

Yeah, don't do it.

 

[Johnny Rose]

the person selling it bought from them and now is selling it on. im not buying it from the site.

Crap, I didn't see that in the first post, my apology. I agree with the others though, I wouldn't do it. It sounds amazing, but a little suspect. Nay, a lotta suspect.

If you dont care that it is gray market, go ahead and buy it. It saves you from having to deal with express camera.......

I went ahead and checked out the camera on friday. It has the full 1 year warranty and is not a grey market item. I finally made the decission to buy it and got for a pocket friendly $1800. The seller also agreed to throw in an extended warranty (that i have to look into). Thanks guys for the advice and i'll be postinh my cherry popping shots. LOL
