    I have a listing on ebay and have got a few of these spamy type emails. This one in particular from China, http://www.cieuo.com/index.asp?typeid=35, is advertising unbelievable prices.A canon XL2 for €755 (the €2000 lens is included)Nikon D2Xs body €499. EOS 1Dmk2 body €465, a sony DSR PD 170 with a list of accesories as big as a wardrobe,€300.Those prices are the tip of the ice berg,they include every electrical product you can think of.
    The jist of the original email is that they would supply me to sell this stuff on, but I have to say I'm astounded at some of there prices. They go to an awfull lot of trouble judging by their site if this is some sort of scam. (I'm also highly disgusted if these are the sort of price venders are getting their wares for, the greedy fu**ers)Any thoughts.
    BTW, site isn't 56K friendly.
    Obviously that title should read good.

    Having read a bit more of their site I'm more inclined to believe it is a scam, a big one too.

    Did you actually register with that site? If so prepare to be spammed, big time.

    :) It's gotten a wee bit slicker (not in a good way) since it was posted on Bargain Alerts..

    There must be some way to shut this con-artist down? I'm sure UPS, Fed-Ex, DHL, et al, would be interested in this.. IIRC a few weeks back they had an authorised Canon dealer sign..
