Hi,
I want to buy a Canon 500D(with 18-55 IS lens) in Bangalore, Any idea what is the best price for it(with OR without bill) ?

Is there anyone else who can offer competitive price compare to Jayesh in bangalore?
How good is it to buy it without bill & warranty from any reputed vendor

thanks,
Ajay

Try Foto Circle, I forget the address but you can give them a call at 9845022654. GK Vale is another option but I assume it would be more expensive there. Foto Circle sells both grey market as well as white market stuff. All the best! If you can spare the money I would recommend you try out the 40D (It has been superceded by 50D but it is still quite nice and you might get it cheap), which is a nice camera

Nope, no website as such. And no point calling him, leave him a message and you'll get a reply with quote at 1 or 2 AM :D. Very nice guy though, it's always fun to meet him :). He has offered me a lensbaby at a lucrative price, let's see when I get time to check it out.

BTW, does he do any shipping work for the stuff..??
Think so, because he had told me once that he had to send some stuff to kolkata. Leave him a message and ask him if he will ship to Jabalpur, he might.

Ha ha, he can't. He's too busy for it :D.

If you want to see him, here's a photo of his, in his old shop.

Just got another question guys, Is it really worth saving 3k by getting 500D canon without bill in 32k. How safe would that option be (in any case i am planning to buy from jayesh)?

If the diff b/w bill+wrty and gray is just 3k I feel like its not worth getting gray...

Better to go with bill and warranty since camera have many electronic parts (compared to lens) and a warranty keeps a backup and peace in my mind...

BTW, I feel like U can get more difference in gray..
