ive just ordered one as the cheapest i could find it for was £377 and would be ideal for our next trip to nyc.

looks like you will also get another 10% back as a cheque so knock another £25 off and the total should be £227 delivered you also get to send it back for free if it not suitable for you.

it is also claiming to be the worlds smallest dv camera!

Is this camcorder any good though? Any reviews? TIA.

Home page bottom right explains it's added once order is with you on your account.

Ah... SO it's not "new customer" it's "new account holder" i.e. if you pay by credit card, you don't get the 20% discount.

You all may like to note that the GUS webpage says it is DV in and out...but it is only DV out...small difference but may be important to someone....(edit)actually I'm wrong it doesn''t say that at all its the next model up that it says is in/out.

Yes...I feel it may be another of those "sorry we no longer have this item in stock....do you want to chose something else at a greatly inflated price" times. I've lost count of the number of "new" accounts I've opened but never seen the goods.
Good luck though....I've ordered one just in case!!

just buy it on the 20 week 0% interest option.

and remember you also get a 10% cheque back on the camcorder or 12.5% to spend on your next item.
