Royal Caribbean on Main Street downtown is good, I've spent about $5,000 there in the last 3 years (I'm a photographer).

Otherwise you can try Boolchans, about a block away on Main St., they're pretty good also but usually slightly higher prices and smaller selection.

They both also have stores at Havensight but I find the downtown stores to be much better, especially if you go on a low ship day.

Last and not least, depending on what you're looking to buy, or to get an idea of what it should cost (+/- 15%) you can go to www.bhphotovideo.com which is the king of all camera stores, located in New York but will ship to USVI, delivery usually less than a week.

Hope this was helpful...

Dave

I'll second the vote for Royal Caribbean. I've bought a conventional film Pentax SLR camera (ZX 7) in 1999, compact digital Cannon powershot in 2002 and the Pentax K100D last November. The prices were always below MSRP. Also, They had the Pentax models before they were available on the mainland. I'm always pleased with the deals I get there.

Hi Otis, if you end up buying from B&H make sure they ship it USPS and make sure they insure it. If its not insured theres a good chance it won't arrive.

Have fun shooting!
