    online catalogue is sparse on details? Is the kitlens that they are providing really the Canon EF-S 17-85mm F4-5.6 IS USM? Because I don't see any mention of any other 17-85mm Canon lens and if it is, the Argos deal is only about 90E less than Kea would want for the same deal.

    I don't know any staff members, sorry. I live in a very rarefied world.

    but dammit...it's some deal.

    Just browsing the new Argos Catalogue and they have the Canon 40D 17mm-85mm kit for €1499.99 which beats any shop that I know off and also if you looking for a compact they have the Canon G9 for €439.49, this is a great price for a super compact which I bought because it shoot RAW and it's handy on nights out instead of hauling my 30D around. I only bought a G9 just after christmas and it cost me €579 witha 2gb card but I still feel ripped off now. I just wonder if its a pricing mistake ? we will know if there always out of stock.

    Checked both cameras and both where there in 3 Dublin Extra stores to reserve today so I guess it a good buy if your looking for either of them.

    Cityexile. You could still possibly get one, if you use the ring and reserve service 01-2161616 and check if there is stock of the old catalogue number 058/1536 at your nearest extra store
    There was one in Liffey Valley

    Looks like the old price was a misprint. Fair play to Argos.
