I suspect getting deals at Henrys outlet all depends on who you deal with. Guy I delt with on Friday was an anal little shit and no deals were to be had. Assuming that a number of the good staff that will cut a deal move to the new location in Mississauga, anyone care to name names of those good people for future reference for the rest of us?

I dropped in yesterday while dropping off film at DC. There were bins of crap, 3 film bodies for $45, and more. It seemed like a big sell-off to try and get rid of as much stock as possible. I guess they are making way for the new outlet store.

The 3 for $45 cameras sale has been on since November many of the better bodies disappeared in the first month I got my EM for $20 used it and sold it back to them for $10 when I brought my FM. Your right it was going to cost them more then it was worth to move them.

Well, I got Olympus 3 IR remotes, an Olympus wired remote, Olympus camera power supply, and some misc cables all for $20; normally (except for the cables) the total would have come to $330!!! :lol:

I also picked up a used Olympus C-750 for $40 which was going for $90.

I was hoping they would have reduced the price of their lenses, but no such luck. :cry: Was hoping for a deal for the FourThirds Lensbaby 3G.
