->> Nice catch Tom, I agree it sounds like someone who isn't a photographer. The description, complete with reference to film bodies, is copied right off the Canon website:

->> A common scam lately in Canada. Seller has recently been transferred to another city but will ship it etc etc etc.
"L" series and Nikon pro lenses seem to be popular - all around $1k. Total ripoff.

->> I saw one very similar on a D3 not too long ago, seems like it was $1500 or so. After contacting the seller through Craigslist, he informed me that he didn't realize he was going to be out of state when he posted the item for sale and he had some strange requests for payment. I reported him to Craigslist, but I would think there is so much of this going on that not much happens.
