It is sad but true that most photographic equipment prices are significantly 
cheaper in New York than in most other locations. This is probably due to a 
confluence of supply and competition. Photographers working in this area use 
their equipment hard and replace it often. Anyone intending to buy a 
selection of used equipment might save a bundle if they visit this area 
during the next World Series (held every three years in Gotham) and go on a 
shopping spree. Your wife will probably enjoy her own shopping spree too.
