for $433.48 - $400 MIR: http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/Electronics/Canon_Pr
. You can probably fetch $150 for the printer. This would bring the price
of the Canon 60D body down to around $630 after selling all your lenses and
receiving the $400 MIR: http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/Electronics/Canon_Pr
.
I'll let you all decide for yourselves how valuable your time is and whether
or not this deal is worth it, but this seems like a decent deal for those
of you who don't mind flipping a few things on craigslist/ebay. I'm on the
fence.... Hope this helps someone out!
