Agree, local is best for returns, advice, and comparing. For Canon buying locally and via internet such as Andorama are about same price due to Canon's pricing model. But that being said Ebay can offer excellent discounts, mostly this is gray market, meaning warranty can be an issue (buyer be aware!). Again though I saved BIG recently and also able to register the camera for warranty, getting coupon discounts offers, and able to download various Canon software, virtually same as say Andorama, plus seller 1 year warranty - which again can be dubious.
Often authorized Canon dealers dump equipment to non authorized to meet required sales quotas, BUT doubt buyer will be able to identify whether USA product unless stated by Ebay seller and then pricing will have smaller discount.

Do you have proof of that statement, "Often authorized Canon dealers dump equipment to non authorized to meet required sales quotas"?
