Buddy at work bought a digital camera last year from Abe's, based on my suggestion. The camera was as advertised and delivery was fairly quick. The down side was that Abe's tried to sell him an overpriced "accessory kit" consisting of rechargable batteries and a camera case of questionable quality. I wouldn't be afraid of Abe's, but be cautious about them wanting to upsell accessories.

When dealing with "too good to be true" camera prices, you need to ask if they are fully warranted products or "grey market" non-USA spec merchandise. Also, whether they are new or refurbished.
