Which is the best place to buy a digital camera?

I recently had a really bad experience with an Olympus digicam. I was glad I was able to return it to the store twice. Plus the store (C***USA) offers a 2 year protection plan. However, I've noticed that one can find better deals (in terms of price) over the Web, but I'm concerned as to what is going to happen if anything goes wrong with the camera. Where should I take it? Will I have to send it back over the mail? Please help. I think this is a very important issue to consider when buying because you're investing some money and you want your investment to be protected just in case. What do you all think? Lower price vs protection and convenience......

If you are concerned with having to ship it back through the mail, just look for a local camera store in your area. You might have to pay a bit more, but they usually have a great guarentee or some kind of protection plan. It's worth the extra money to know that you will have a good protection plan. On top of that, a lot of camera shops will offer free classes with the purchase of the camera. They will teach you not only how to use the various functions on the camera, but how to do some interesting "tricks"

B&H Photo (http://www.bhphotovideo.com ) or I've had a lot of success at http://www.ecost.com

Have you tried some shopping comparison sites. I recommend Shopzilla. (www.shopzilla.com) They have tons of reviews on the merchants, on the product, let's you compare prices, shipping, etc.

Give it a shot and good luck.

As others have said I would recommend B&W...it is not the cheapest online, but it is a very reputable retailer. Also you can usually get nice bundles which include memory, carrying pack etc.

Also Amazon is pretty good. My brother and me both bought our Canon's from Amazon and even though it was a little pricier than some, but service is fantastic.
