retract your accusation against Adorama and B&H? You've libeled
them.

As Henry Posner has explained at length on dpreview, retailers are
only free to set their own prices within parameters set by the
manufacturers and distributors.
When these paremeters change, ALL retailers have no choice but to
increase our prices or lose our status as authorized resellers - and
these rules can apply to items that we already have in stock sitting
on our shelves, not only when we re-stock!

It's not exactly price fixing, traditionally for that you'd need
collusion between camera mfg's, but Motorola got into trouble in the
1980's for doing this with semi-conductors, basically telling the
sellers what they could charge to customers.

There you go again. Ruining a good mindless rant with clear objective
facts!
