I haven't taken up anyone's time at the local shops. I've gotten all my opinions from the web, so I feel okay about buying a Canon 580ex online. Does anyone have favorite deal sites (other than fatwallet or slickdeals) to help me get the flash for the low end of $300.

I'm wanting to stay with Amazon, B&H, or Dell, no shady grey market / low service stuff.

Thanks!

It looks like the going rate is around $379.95 before the $20 rebate from some of the reputable vendors like B&H. I checked their used department and didn't see any of them either (ditto for KEH -- none in the used section right this minute).

I doubt you'll find a deal on a new U.S. Model with a warranty for the price you want to pay (without some "catch" involved, like high shipping/insurance, etc. tacked on).
