    Get down to Calumet

    In case you didn't hear, Calumet went tits up. So if you need anything, get to one fast.

    If you don't have one near you and are looking for something specific, I will check our local one and see what kind of price they have it in, if interested.

    They run bankers hours during the week. I called today and it looks like they are loaded. They plan to "stay open for 8 weeks or until everything is gone." This sale just started. And I assumed it would be just little shit and they would wholesale bodies and glass to someone. Nope. Everything in stock in their stores is under this penalty.

    I am heading down Saturday morning which is my first opportunity. Let me know, PM me or post here. I'll check prices while I'm there and post back.

    I'm a Sony guy, if they have A77 bodies I'd be interested. Also be interested in a Sony 85 2.8 A mount. Beer for you if sales happen.

    No olympus stuff left in the DC area stores.

    Didn't ask about other stuff, don't need more temptation to buy gear.

    Same here...
    I've concluded that DJSapp was never DJSapp, and Not DJSapp is also not DJSapp, so that means he's telling the truth now and he was lying before.

    Sorry er'body. Last weekend I got busy Saturday and then Sunday was Easter. And I can't get there until Saturday again. Hope everything hasn't been picked over.

    There are a couple lenses I do not need, but depending on price I may have to jump.

    Anyone get a chance to stop by? I don't have one nearby. Can you double dip with the current rebates that just went out?

    Sorry I didn't update this. The sale is kind of bullshit so I never bothered. They had almost nothing available and they raised prices to make it look like deals. They were trying to sell a used 40D for $400 and a used t3i for $550. Those were the only bodies they had. They had one TS lens but I didn't even bother to look at the price. If people were looking for film, they had quite a bit left over. They also had a pretty big selection of filters but no 4x4 or 4x6 so I didn't really check those out too much. People may be able to haggle if they find something they want, but honestly, I don't think anyone will get anything cheaper than they could on ebay or something.

    Oh, and now their signage says 40-80% off everything and that is just a flat out lie.
