I suggest stay away from other NY stores except B&H photo.

Adorama is an excellent company.

This made me laugh so much, the thought of a guy being all excited to find a rock in a box and the look of dissapointment on his face

I'd hate it to happen to me and it shouldn't happen to anyone else but the situation is a little strange and funny

One big thing no one has said yet is you need to ensure the site you're ordering from is an Authorized Dealer for the brand you are planning to buy. If ANYTHING is purchased from a non-authorized dealer you can kiss your warranty good buy.

Alot of those low priced companies also do bait and switch, claiming you ordered a camera with japanese menus etc, offer to "upgrade" you to the english version for $150, and when you say no that camera "goes out of stock".
