Rebel XTi at Costco - 2 lens kit
What do you guys think of this bundle I saw at the local Costco:
Rebel XTi camera body
17-55mm EF-S lens
20-300mm (I think that was it) EF lens
Canon 1GB CF
Canon camera bag
$940
I'm guessing these are low end lenses and this price isn't really worth it.
Let me know what you all think....or should I hold out for a discounted 30D (since 40D is out).
Also, this would be my first digital SLR.

You can get a 30D for about $1000, check amazon.com or bhphoto.com. It was about $1200 the beginning of this year.

Yeah, the EF-S 17-55 alone is worth around $1000-1200. If these numbers are legit, this is a kick ass deal. I'd jump on it in a hearbeat, if only to turn around and sell the gear at a tidy profit.
I'm wondering if he didn't mean the EF-S 18-55 instead. Either way, that's a hell of a deal.

I would rather buy from an online site NOT based in you state to save $$$ from paying tax.
