Here's one thread that talked about this company.

I would specifically look into the warranty situation, to make sure you would get a valid US warranty.

Bought the 50-200 zoom from them a month ago - No Problems. One of our chronic complainers was was trashing them back then. If you do a search you can probably find it.

They take credit cards (as well as Paypal). DON'T use Paypal if you buy from them. The lowest price I've seen for a K20D from them is $570.00, on Jan 12 auction.

Retired,
I just bought from them off of Feabay a couple weeks ago for a friend. The camera arrived from Canada in four days. It was a K200D with kit lens. The K20D's take a while longer to ship. I think this is due to demand. He's very happy so far. Got a great price, $406 shipped.

Retired too!

Try Amazon
this will ensure a good price from a reliable seller

Retired,

If you do go through buydig or beach camera. Make sure that you use live.com to get an additional $18 dollars off by searching and purchasing through that portal.

Slower shipping but prices hard to beat for a Canadian online reseller!
