Not you! All those people that bought from retailers thinking the counter salesperson was honestly presenting a product honestly. If you've ever seen a salesperson make a check mark next to a line item you've been SPIFFED!

Most of it is done off the barcode today without the check.

Nikon has always been a high quality product as has all the rest for imagemaking equipment out there. They're all tools, choose the one that suits you.

It's been fun, Major, but I feel a bit like a kiss-n-tell revealing the inner workings of retail sales.
