The retail store by us closed down, liquidated inventory and I see that it has reopened under a different name. Check it out before handing over your hard earned cash. I googled on the net that they are or were a subsidiary of of Ritz Cameras who filed for bankruptcy and were liquidating stores to raise cash. This has been a while so things may have changed. Purchased a dingui from them years back ($1000) and was very pleased with shipping and service; but that was then. Check their web site endorser organizations and if you feel comfortable with them would not see a reason not to give them a try.
