I'm calling "no way!"
They have a Vx2100 for $1100 and GL2 for $950 after rebate.

if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

beware of the old "bait & switch."

I've never heard of those guys before. They may sell you the unit for that but ask that you buy accessories, an exhorbinant service contract or pay outrageous shipping (or at that price all three) also beware of companies that say the product is on backorder and insist on charging your card. They sit on your money until you force a refund. If they get enough "orders" they can actually make some interest or worst over time.

Another dead give-away is the over priced accessories... $180 UV filter, $10 tapes, $200 batteries..

Rich is right, buyer beware because these guys are going to take you for a ride.
