enjoy.
Ps. the authorized dealers dont sell for less then 1900!! which sucks so i think il just buy from a non authorized dealer

Theres places on ebay where you can buy it for 1549 and get a 3 yr warranty for 179.99...

I just bought mine from the local 6Ave store for $1515 + tax. I printed out an internet price from 6Ave.com last month when they were selling them for $1515. They were willing to sell it to me for that price. :D I also got their 3 year extended warranty for $199. If I have any problems, I can bring it to the store and they will send it to Pioneer for repairs.

Just remember...those "warranties" are not from Pioneer. Tread carefully here....

Just to Clarify, those are only the online stores.

Those "warranties" that you can buy from the unauthorized retailers are NOT warranties. They are merely service plans.

Yes, they are warranty plans, but if from a reputable firm such as Mack Camera, just as good as the Pioneer warranty. I have had Mack warranties on all my Nikon gear, and when needed (only twice in ten years), they have repaired as agreed to. In fact one time, they not only repaired but cleaned an entire Nikon F5 that had been caught in a sandstorm for no extra cost.

I also got mine from 6ave, for $1515... and $0.06 for shipping + no tax!! I also got the www.myrepairtech.com warranty for 5 years, but for $300 cheaper than any other website that sells that same warranty...
