The main two I would use is

adorama or B&H but.....

with everyone looking for a deal I've been asked about amazon and ebay(which I wouldnt recommend do to all the chinese knockoffs out there) and these http://www.expresscameras.com and http://www.usaphotonation.com . Anyone use these for camera goods?

Beach Camera and BuyDig are the same company and I've had excellent results. They offer free shipping on most items and that can trump B&H at times.

I've bought from Amazon, B&H (lots of equip) and Beach/Buydig all with good results.

On camera gear I'd go right to www.resellersratings.com and check feed back. There are a lot of camera stores that are less than honest when it comes to dealing with them.

Beach is my favorite, because of low prices. Service has been excellent, including a return. B&H is also very good.

after some more research and calling around I would flat out avoid those two I asked about. They are :twisted:
