Weasel;

I forgot Hunts. Gary always has good prices and great service.

B&H also has a special monthly code that gives you better prices on select cameras. I usually find it on Canon's message boards. Saved me 50 bucks on my XT.
The current code is "pssep". Just type it into the search box and all of their discounted items will come up.

The company I work for as a photographic printer has a mail order department. It is a family owned company that has a lot of mail order customers. I am not sure about how competitive prices are as I don't watch that sort of thing but customer service is the best. Try us out robertsimaging.com

These guy's beat B&H prices by quite a bit. I bought my first Nikon from them and saved almost $200 than what a few other online places were charging.

go to bizrate.  search in the digital camera section for many different prices.  Once you find one you like, look for it on cnet.  the reviews there will let you know how the cnet editors used it and how other users thought it worked.
