So I am looking to get the D7100 body only and 42nd street photo has it at $749. Seems to good to be true. Never ordered from here. Anyone have any experience. Are they reputable?
I used them once and it was a nightmare. I even stopped in the store in NY City and English was the least spoken language. They will try to up-sell you and/or send you something you didn't order and then you have to try and get a refund. Stay away would be good advice!

Go to B&H or Adorama...

In other words, 45 minutes of gray market trickery and pushy sales men.
No U.S. warrenty.

Yes! Don't! Try Adorama, Cameta, B&H, Amazon, not 42nd St. 42nd St. is responsible for a practice of outrageous upselling and lying to do it.
I bought a camcorder from them. A day later I got a call from the salesman that it was going to go out "today" but I really needed to buy a special high speed sdcard for $123.99 as the standard cards wouldn't work in that Canon camcorder. I did not buy the card and received my camcorder several days later. So I checked the manual and no special card was needed. I put a standard card in and it worked fine. Finally I called Canon and got the information that a standard card was all that was needed.
So that salesman lied to me to get me to buy an sdcard for three times the price. Outrageous. If they let a salesman lie, they demonstrate their own lack of ethics.
CAMETA has the D7100 for $798. I've bought several factory refurb products from them and they were all perfectly fine.

This might be a lower price than from B&H, Cameta or KEH, but sometimes the piece of mind you get is worth the extra $$$.
