As a good vulture, I went to Wolf camera to buy stuff as they close stores. I dropped 1.5G's for some lenses. Right now 30% off lenses, and it's probably the last week-end with useful stuff in the store. At that price it's a little cheaper than the cheapest online prices (add 9.25% in CA :( ). They close June 1st.
Strangely, I first went to a store that stays open, and it was staffed with useless drones unable to provide specs for a point and shoot... No matter it was also not carrying anything worthy of attention.
Then I went to one that was closing, and the person staffing was very nice, and actually seemed to know a tad little bit more. That's where I poked a hole in my credit...
I went over to the Ritz Camera in Pasadena yesterday after reading this. They didn't have anything of quality related to cameras (low-end Nikons, P&S, Olympus), but I ended up getting a decent HP printer at a low price for my family.
