I don't mind paying $20 more if I can be sure that my item will actually arrive... I am thinking: 17photo.com, dbuys.com, ibuydigital.com, digitalfotoclub.com, buydig.com and butterflyphoto.com .
Your opinions? It's important that *nothing* goes wrong because I'm going to place the order from Greece to a friend in California (who will in turn bring it here). You understand that it's almost impossible to handle a problem from such a distance...

Another very reliable source is Norman Camera in Kalamazoo, Michigan. I have purchased 3 Nikon digitals from them (CP990, CP700 refurb, and the loverly D70). The A95 is currently listed for $318.95 (plus shipping).

I have ordered from B&H as well. I have never had, or heard of, a complaint. Very good customer service at both. Throwing in the 512MB Ultra II is a nice touch and a great price. The Ultra II might be a little overkill, for the A95, but, hey, still a heck of a deal, since lesser speed 512MB cards sell for around $50.
