Went to Arlington camera today and spent money like I had it. Walked out with a 70-200 2.8L IS, a 24-70 2.8L and a 580 EX. If you see anyone with a "Will shoot for food" sign on the corner it's probably me. Feel free to stop and say hi.

I'm sure they do considering that I just got a 30D from them a few weeks ago. | | | |

Hey man, don't worry, Arlington Camera is like a second home to me. I've been doing business with those guys for over 25 years now. Have you told your wife yet?  | | | |

Have you told your wife yet?  | Yeah she knew about it before I left the house. She is going to Latvia next month for 10 days, which cost about what I spent today. So she got hers and I got mine.

I think my bro goes there too. He has only good things to say about them. Nice to support a local shop with a big purchase. Congrats!
My wife just doesn't even ask any more. Then again I don't ask when she goes to Neiman's either  All's fair in love and hobbies

Steve, congrats. I bought my 24-70 from Arlington camera the day I got my camera but it was months before I picked up the 580 EX and I still don't have the 70-200 IS!
I've bought my camera from OneCall, my 24-70, 100-400, and 580 from Arlington, and my 100 macro and Bogen/Manfrotto 680B and 475B from Competitve Camera in Dallas. Abel, I would suggest you go by both places and drop off some cards. | | | |

I have to stay away from that place. It is truly the photog's toy store.

i am with you i dig on some competitive camera in dallas. I do so much business with them i was telling ramsey that my old sigma 28-70 wasnt working right he said bring in and we will get her fixed. surnuff fixed for shipping. Not a bad deal. but if you want some one to hold your hand they are not going to do it. you need to know what you want... | | | | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
