Ah, but why buy that when you can get the kit for $1 less?

I put it my shopping cart, just for fun. It dropped to $99,999.99. But that's before the A9 discount is calculated. And shipping is free.

Ouch.

It's worth it. I think if you look through the front of that new lens in the photo, you can see electrons spinning around protons and neutrons. Just take a picture and it does carbon-14 dating, dna decodes, paternity checks, LASIK eye surgery, hypnotism, aroma therapy, exorcism, alters time, and displays 42.

You'll need a flash attachment for a catscan, MRI, Xrays, EKG, ultrasound, MIB, or teleporting. If you need the weather, beer goggles, GPS, MP3, or MTV, you'll need a filter and maybe an extra battery. Endoscopy requires the remote model RE-4M.

For those of you that look at the link ... read the fine print. It says that looking constitutes an agreement to purchase and there is no refund. But you do get the latest!

I clicked the "order it used" and saved $20,000 ... but I may have to wait a bit longer.

I'll bet you have to pay for shipping, too.

Funny thing is that when the true price is established... this may be the largest single day price drop in Amazon history.

Is being shipped from Mars, where Canon has outsourced some production. So, free shipping makes this a good deal in fact. And, you get a $30 discount if you apply for their Visa card.

Do I still have to drink a gallon of that NASTY salt-water solution before, though?

Yeh I could imagine the marketing, In big red bold writing with a slashed $100,000 to $1150. Or "Don't pay $100,000 Reduced to $1150 but only for today"

Sadly, i think the honor of bigest price drop on a site goes to buy.com, which had a 25 pack of imation CD cases for $999,999.99, but dropped to 6.99 - YOU SAVE $999,993!
now
back when CD cases were apparently a lot more expensive

SKPhoton - that had to be one of the funniest comments i've read in a while...

[Edit: I just noticed the "smart savings" on the right on my screenshot...even better values...I always wanted to spend 7 figures on CD cases ]
