Rozzie Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 I was looking at prices for a S90 Canon and found a good price at Digital World International. Anybody heard of them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchnauzerBoy Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 Yes I have heard them and will be using them to purchase my next camera They are a very good outfit with good turn around times and provide good extras such as Mack Warranty sales. I would phone them to check stock first though before placing the order. There is a huge discussion on them on whirlpool with many many many happy customers for a company that delivery such good prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

helen Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 (edited) I looked at them and seriously considered purchasing a camera but changed my mind at the last minute. When you look at their warranty is says DWI warranty - this indicates to me it is a grey market camera, so warranty not covered by Canon. With grey market you might get a perfectly fine camera, but you don't know for sure what you are getting, they can be 2nd hand, or returns of faulty equipment that has been repaired, see this link about what grey market is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grey_market I know you can get the real deal from the USA for not much more http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/search?Ntt=C...itialSearch=yes it is $399 US and about $60 shipping, they have great prices on memory cards so I would definately get one from them at the same time, I purchased a lens from here and got 2 memory cards, no extra postage. Only 1 was for me and I am kicking myself I did not get another 1 or 2 for myself as they were on sale - one note with B&H is that some items have 2 options, full warranty or grey market warranty, so I would always pay a few more $ and go for the full warranty as item can be repaired here Edited January 6, 2010 by helen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirislin Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 but when you buy from B&H dont you have to pay duty if it's over $1000? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helen Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 (edited) S90 is below $1000, not sure how import duty works though, might \find out Edited January 6, 2010 by helen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helen Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 I phoned customs who told me that for anything over $1000 there is 10%, plus an extra 3% for video, no extra for still - not sure how it works with the cameras with the video Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
