Anyone Needs Something From Best Buy? - konafocuswrc - 08-20-2008

if anyone looking to buy something, i can get you cheaper than what you actually pay for..
let me know what you need..
i can help with smaller fee..

and if you are buying car audio stuff, i can also install stuff for you less than what you normally pay for..

Like how much cheaper. I am thinking about getting a new deck with iPod controls in it and maybe a sub but I am not looking to spend a whole lot of $. What would you suggest?

FYI guys beings i've worked at bestbuy, only accessories are dirt cheap. all electronics and stuff are usually cheaper to buy on-sale as a regular customer rather than an employee. perfect example is the xbox 360, its 10$ less on employee pricing but once you add the 10% markup, it becomes more money.

however if you buy a cable of some kind or like headphones, you save a rediculous amount of money. i got myself JBL ear buds for half of what they retail for.


Anyone Needs Something From Best Buy? - konafocuswrc - 08-21-2008

true and false..

true -> acc are dirt cheap..

false -> not all electronics are cheaper to buy on-sale..

depends on which, cameras, audio stuff, you get lots discounts..

I checked out the xsi, good features, just felt like a wimpy camera in the hands and a camera needs to feel good in the hands. Went with the Canon 40D instead.

i got Canon 40D as well, only thing careful is that this DSLR is crop body..
when choosing lens, 50mm will be 80mm on this 40D..
i decided to get Tamron 17mm~50mm for general use, lens is F2.8..
but i am having hard time finding place to buy cheap..

I was just reading about that actually, something like a 1.6 difference with any lens but that's with SLR's in general I'm pretty sure. Only film camera don't have that problem. Works in your favour for telephoto though. I just have the 17-85 and the 50m f1.8 right now. I'm just learning how to use it as I bought it for my wife and she took some photography courses. I picked up the digital field guide for the 40D at Chapters and it teaches you everything about the camera, it's unreal what this camera can do. I'd like to pick myseld up a 100mm macro and a good wide angle lense like a 24-70. I just ordered a Hoya Pro1 Polarizer for my 17-85.

If you want cheaper places to buy from, avoid Henrys lol. They always seem to be overpriced. adorama.com is a site worth checking out, they even have really cheap refurbed stuff. Ebay is always a good spot as well, that's where I just ordered by Polarizer from for $50 new and they usually go for a lot more then that. I bought my 40D new from ebay as well for like $500 cheaper then a store once taxes are factored in.
