Buying my Digital Camera

Posted in Deals & Savings by Elliott Back on July 9th, 2005.

I want to buy a Sony DSCP200 7.2 megapixel digital camera, so naturally I looked at ebay first (since Kel Kel thought so):

search.ebay.com/dscp200

But the best option there was this auction, with a reserve greater the current bid of $300, 21 bids, and 3 days to go. Yipes, I thought, and went looking for a better deal. Overstock was my next look, but it only has an older Sony 3.2 MP camera:

Apparently buy.com doesn’t sell sony cameras, so I move onto Amazon.com. With my 10% employee discount, I can pick it up for a l33t $379 - $38 = $341. That’s probably better than anywhere so far:

I can also buy a 1GB memory stick for only $99:

On the other hand, Tiger Direct has it for $10 less–pricematch? That would make Amazon around $330!
