ReturnBuy has Olympus C-720 (sells for $599 at Best Buy) for $309. It appears to be an open box item, but they claim it's fully functional, and all the accessories are included. Not too bad of a price IMHO, I just ordered one. Just go to returnbuy.com and search for C-720. I think they use session IDs, so I'm not going to post a direct link. They also have open box D520 for $139 and D550 for $199.

PS: I got my C720 from them a few days ago, it was like new.
 
oh geez. i want one! has anyone bought anything from returnbuy.com?? How was the service, and i'm kinda suspicous on the 50 dollar 1 year kemper warranty. Anyone have any info on the reliability of the store and stuff?.. this camera is sweeet! 8x optical is nice!
 
Well, guess I'll find out about the reliability of that place in a few days. Couldn't resist - that's one sweet camera, they go for $450+ on egay.
 
dp004i - i'll probably buy it if everything goes well with your purchase. i went to best buy today and played with it. hehe
 
Hey everyone... i was looking at amazon and i found this

amazon seller

a member named "returnbuyinc" who's selling the c-720 camera for 359.99. This user seems to be
the same user that owns www.returnbuy.com (I THINK!) ... anyways, seems like the user has pretty good reviews.

sooo tempting!
 
when I saw this thread... I knew I'd find a post by Exman within... he never misses a camera deal. Let me know how good it is Exman.
 
UGH! the same website has the C-700 (10x optical zoom) for the 300 bucks!!!!! (and so does his store at amazon.com)
But i'm starting to this this deal is too good to be true!
check out the grey market info below

grey market info

okay. someone email him and report back. hahaha.
 
Returnbuy is a huge seller on ebay 32,400 feedback. They just recently launched sales on there own site. I think they were either using ebay to launch themselves or it was just a natural progression. They sell exactly that returns and open box items. They also sell under the realcrazymo & brandnewbuy names.
 
I brought a C-3020 from them2 weeks ago for $202. It does not come with any warranty. However, it was in perfect condition, except no AA batteries included. And it is not a grey market one either. Can't find anything wrong with this camera, just couldn't figure out why it's so cheap though. I had ordered a few times from them and no problem at all. Just be sure you read their product description and know what you are buying.

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!
crap crpa crap crap crap
 
hey everyone,, if anyone is interested. returnbuy has the c-720uz back in stock.. i just bought one this morning..*CROSSES FINGERS*
okay. later everyone! thanks for this awesome post! it's my dream camera (AND FOR THIS PRICE!!!)
 
Got a shipping confirmation and a tracking number, will get the camera on Thursday. I'll let you know how it turns out.
 
BAD NEWS: I just checked the tracking page today, and it shows the the package is out for delivery somewhere in South Carolina (quite coincidentially, not too far from where their warehouse is), even though the system still shows Waltham, MA as its destination. It's probably a system glitch, but there's also a possibility that those monkeys charged my CC and recalled the package. I really hope the latter is not true, but, either way, I suggest you hold your horses and don't order anything from them until I get this issue resolved.
 
oh crap!!! THAT"S NOT GOOD
but don't SAY THAT CAUSE YOU MAKE ME WANNA POOP MY PANTS
(but thanks for the update)

hopefully it's an intermediate shipping place, right? i mean, c'mon, how could they mess up the shipping address?
We typed it in ourselves! online! should be easy as 1-2-84534.. AH!!!!!

that doesn't seem like that could be true! they got good ratings through amazon.. ( i didn't check ebay)
 
Well, the tracking page still says it's out for delivery, so I guess I'll find out tomorrow. Probably a system glitch - I mean, returnbuy seems to be a big company, so I doubt they would screw their customers like that. But hey, you never know.
