http://www.inoax.com. They are in NY too, their overall prices for the cameras and accessories seem cheaper than what I saw elsewhere.
The strange experience that I had in buying the camera over the Internet wasn't with inoax, it was with UPS. They left the camera box on the doorstep without a signature from the recipients (us). Wow. If somebody had walked off with the camera I don't know who would have paid for the purchase, hopefully it wouldn't have been us! The purchase was insured though.
Also, what if we would have called and said that we had not received it, UPS would have had not way to prove that they had dropped it off without a signature as proof. If you have it sent via UPS you may want to ask the company sending it out that you get insurance and require a signature. You mean we could have had a free extra camera? I'm just too honest though.
Also, if you're getting a Digital rebel you may want to get the body only, not the package deal with the standard lens (55 - 80). Then buy the better lens (75 - 300). Its just a thought if you're trying to save money.
