You know the price will drop the day after you buy one, so don't worry so much about that, and just buy one! The 5D3 is very much like a machine gun, it's very quick and responsive, don't even look at the 16Gb cards, or even the 32gb cards if you are shooting RAW at a event. I can Easley run out of CF card space so i have now invested in Hoodman 64Gb 145mb/s CF cards. AND these cards are fast. My 5D3 almost never stops shooting in RAW.
The first time I used this card I shoot over 500 photos of the sky, just waiting for my buffer to slow the camera down. It never slowed down.... Don't plan on shooting RAW and Jpeg, as it just slows the camera down. If you like to know where you have been then canons GPS works well, plotting a dot on a Google map, and it even shows which way the camera is pointing too. I could go on..

Like me, you look at the keyboard when you type. I have gotten many surprises when I looked up at the screen, and the caps lock is one of them. :D
You have two choices: you can buy the camera that you want now, or you can wait and wait and wait until the price drops $50 - $100. What will you do about taking pictures in the meantime? Every camera I have ever bought has gotten cheaper some time after I bought it. If I kept waiting for the lowest price, I wouldn't have anything now.
Look for refurbs and check out eBay. I've done both - as well as bought new.

Thanks for the advise. You are correct, the prices always seem to fall after we buy. The 5d3 is an amazing camera. Once I get one, my camera buying days will be over.😆
