Nikon D 90 Brochure

Nikon has the New D90 camera shown on both the US and Canadian websites.
Here is the link for the Brochure.

Nice features but a price has not been announced. And typical Nikon it will
not be available for 4 months.

Seeing that it is the substitute for the D80 I will imagine the price will
be close to the D80.

If you look more closely you will see its "the estimated selling price" so
no actual price has been released.
..
Nikon also said in their press release it will be available in the Fall of
2008.

Uh, what's that $999.95 doing here, then?

A lot of companies don't want to use artificially high MSRPs anymore as
it will be used in reviews, so they use "estimated selling price" or
"projected street price" or some such wording. The $999.95 is probably
what you'd pay at a full-service camera store, and is $100-150 more than
what you'd pay at Amazon or a reputable NYC e-tailer.

Does a price on retailer's site count:

Wrong on both counts. $995. Late September.

Look at Amazon, B&H, Ritz, and Calumet, genius. They ALL have "actual
prices". And guess what? The "actual price" is $999.95. Imagine that!

I've noticed, at least with Amazon, that the pre-order price is almost
always higher than the price once the item is actually in stock.

At least with Amazon, the price once a new camera in stock for 3-4 weeks
is almost always less than the pre-order price. I found that to be the
case for the 20D, 40D, D80, and SD800 from Amazon. Not different than
many products where the early adopters pay the most.

It's amazing you haven't been hit by a bus yet. One can hope....

How mature. Yet another clueless newbie for the kill-file.

Not so up here in Canada.. Current pre-listing are at 1150 or so.

Ah well.. My D80 will do for now :P

In the U.S. Amazon has even been criticized for the wide price swings on
some items, which change sometimes by the hour based on demand. Books,
DVDs, etc. go down in price when they become hot sellers because they
sell best sellers for less, even though they're in higher demand
(probably because big box retailers also price new releases and best
sellers lower). Electronic items that aren't on the market yet will be
listed at prices that are what the manufacturer says it should retail
for, but when the product actually is available it almost always falls
in price.

Amazon states: "Generally speaking, once you place an item in your
shopping cart, you're guaranteed that price for one hour. If you've
placed an item in your shopping cart for purchase at a later time, and
the price for that item *declines*, you automatically get the new lower
price for the item. If the price *increases* between the time you place
the item in the cart, and the time you're ready to purchase, we notify
you of the new higher price (which is the messaging you've seen). You
can then determine whether or not you want to make the purchase at the
new price, or remove the item from your shopping cart."

When I bought a higher-end camcorder a few years ago from Amazon they
were $400 less than the closest competitor, yet an hour after I placed
the order the unit went up by several hundred dollars.
