 	Now; the best deal seems to be from the mail order place, but how re-
 liable are these people ? (Thinking there located at 43 Seventh Avenue NYC
 makes me worry) Has anybody bought stuff from these mail order places in NYC
 and was swindled or maybe quite satisfied ? Are there good places to look 
 around in Boston for as good or better deals ? 
 
I don't recall the exact address (a numbered avenue in NYC is all I
remember!) but I think that is the place where I mail ordered a Canon
T-70 and got an AE-1 back in the mail.  Their replies (I phoned back a
few times to complain) were unresponsive and rude (of course, what did
I expect?)  Well, what can I say, I deserved the hassle for the amount
of money I shelled out.  Guess I can warn you to be prepared to follow
through with the hassles if you want to get a "cheap" deal!
