B&H is as honest as they come. Very good service, no-hassle
replacement of defective merchandise and a large volume of in-stock
equipment. I buy all my cameras and lenses from B&H, as do a number of
other list members, and I've never had a problem.

Jack,
As several people on the list wrote, Buydig appears to have a good
record. You can check photo.net community as well.
I personally purchased my DS, and a lens. My DS had to be sent back
due
to the problem with the buil-in flash, and I had no problem or hassle
with the return and replacement.
Although I had made quite several purchases from Adorama, my more
recent
experience with them was less than satisfying (they were misleading
about product availability - both on their website and via the phone).
That actually stopped me from purchasing my DS from them 3.5 years
ago,
and then subsequently some lenses.
Note that BeachCamera is under the same management as BuyDig and also
appears to have very reasonable record.
Of course, you have to be alert with all low-margin mail-order
companies, especially NY/NJ-based, including B&H. And the typical
somewhat
"rough" manner of the customer service-client relation typical to NYC
appears rude to people living, say, in MidWest.
BTW, while Amazon's rules (e.g. those related to product return)
appear
to be more liberal than those of the NYC photo retailers, if something
goes off the track, their customer service is hard to deal with -
it's a huge corporate machine.

Igor,
Buydig's reputation is pretty unsavory. Check with Google for more
info.
Could very well be "hidden" costs and an unpleasant encounter.
