bobatkins Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 I know early adopters pay more, but this is ridiculous, even if they did throw in the 85/1.2L II as a kit lens....<div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gary_rees1 Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 No, it's selling at a discount. $9.99 below default. ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anupam Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 Any idea why amazon would do this? If this were one of the Brooklyn scams I'd understand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andrew_carlson Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 I bet they put in 999's when they don't know their retail price yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savas_kyprianides Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 If retailers read some of the comments on these boards, they would be too cowed to even attempt to run that availability / premium price ploy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason_bostic Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 Same reason sellers do it on Ebay, it gets your attention and listed at least. They know no one will click on it. Plenty may not buy it anyways. I'm upgrading from the Digital Rebel 300D so I'm still up in the air on what I'm going to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rogernoel Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 Great post Bob. Nice to see some humor injected in this forum. Sometimes I feel that photography is a life-threatening experience after reading some of the posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
