I know this might sound awkward and strange but Wal-Mart last week here in Tucson has the T2i with kit lens in stock at a cool $850. I know you are looking for it without the lens but I was shocked Wal-Mart carried it.
I really do appreciate the suggestion, but I don't think that would work for me. Stores like that are going to charge $40ish in tax. At this point, I might be willing to pay the tax if I'm just buying the body (the total, with shipping, coming out to about $850), but with the kit lens plus tax, the total is almost $900 (for places like Best Buy, Wal-Mart, etc). Then I'd have to go through the hassle of eBaying off the kit lens and everything... I just wish a nice, reputable online camera retailer had the 'body only' in stock.
Thanks a lot for the suggestion, though. It was worth looking into
