XL1s for $3400?
 
Hey, has anyone ever heard of nice electronics.com
http://www.niceelectronics.com

they have a XL1s for 3400 at http://www.niceelectronics.com/video/indexMy.htm?discr5673.htm

I saw a message on another minidv message board about this, anyone know if this company is "safe" ?

Probably not for such a good deal considering most go for 3,600-3.700 bucks

Doesn't look too good
 
Best place to check for things like this is at:

http://www.resellerratings.com/

You can find Nice here:
http://www.resellerratings.com/seller1683.html

There is a very low number of reviews for this reseller, but what is there can't be considered reasuring!

A lot of the people posting here have purchased from one of the sites sponsors (ZGC gets a lot of mention), and in all the sitting and watching of posts that I do, I have yet to see anyone disatisfied...

I'd hate to see the review for braodway photo.com

http://www.bwayphoto.com/product.asp?item=cnxl1s

They have the XL1s package for under $3,000

You can't get something for nothing, folks... if the price looks too good to be true, it often is.

See my thread on this topic at the top of the forum list: "Where to Buy the XL1S" at http://www.dvinfo.net/conf/showthread.php?s=&threadid=22

When it comes to finding the best, most reputable dealers in the business, I've already done that homework for you. See the Sponsors page at www.dvinfo.net -- not only are these dealers the best you'll ever find, they also support this site and make these boards available for you to use.

For camcorders, these are ZGC, Pro-Tape and Zotz Digital. Contact info on the Sponsors page at www.dvinfo.net -- hope this helps,
