why go for a 1000d + lens for $550
add abit more like $600+ u can get a 450D which is better than 1000d
to me the price is abit too high for the 1000d
Then get somebody who is familiar, pay him a kopi or some roti prata and ask him for help. Ask for the receipt to see how much warranty is really left (receipt is what counts, not any comments about 'unfilled' or 'unregistered warranty').hi i saw this deal at marketplace a while back. it comes with everything, box, lens and bag except sd card. should i get? im afraid that its a scam or smth..

Search / Google for shutter count and read a bit if you are worried about that. But frankly: if you are on budget then this topic should not bother you too much.

See first line of my previous post. You seem to need a friend .. or a lot of trust in the seller.. any ideas how to check the camera?
It doesn;t look like a scam. I feel the price is high compared to current pricing.
If you have an old/spoilt canon digi/film cam, bring into Canon Service Centre at Harbourfront for the priviledge purchase program. Its not called trade in.
1000D is at $799 with 18-55mm lens. Surrender your old cam and get 20.5% off. It comes to about $636 with GST.

8GB card and bag is included in the above price.
Pls give Canon a call before going down to confirm the 20.5% still stands. I recently enquired for my cousin who was intending to get the 550D.
Do the sums. Less than $100 more gives you assurance its brand new and warranty coverage is full + no need to spend another $20+ for the mem card. hmm..i think you should buy new. haaa
hth
he claim that shutter count is ard 9k now.. any ideas how to check the camera?
