...it's always these impulse buys that get me...i was actually getting the bag only....and to think that i actually bargained down the price from the the $17, which they already wrote on the receipt.

...well..3 bucks for good service then! only applies to tripod and bag sales staff...

the one who showed me the 717 was quite reluctant in letting me handle the cam, sensing that i wasn't a potential buyer...

Does all the price from their e-quote? The 717 is cheaper then I expected.

My personal shopping experience with most of CP staff has always been good if not excellent, yes they may not be the cheapest in town, but you'll get quality service.

$66 for the Weenie? (Without the bunion)

I got my Weenie @ $135 from CP as well but with the camera bunion so that would work out to be $69 for the bunion?

Hmmmm....

I was quoted $132 for the Weenie with the bunion inserts, but no stock. BTW, I haven't seen the Home Stayer, it should be much smaller right?

Home Stayer is slightly bigger than the model Steamer. It's good enough for an slr plus 2 lenses, or a big DC with rm for extra filters, adaptor plus misc items, such as ur a bottle of mineral water, etc.

The $60+ bunion is for which crumpler bag? Will this fit the Weenie?
