Buy it from Amazon. No sales tax. Use sales tax to purchase accessories. I bought the friction mount. Sign up for free trial of Amazon Prime when asked during checkout and get free 2 day shipping. Don't forget to cancel Amazon Prime if you don't really want it.

And most of the Amazon dealers will ship it for free. They say 5-7 days, but I get most things in about 3 days.

I just cancelled my costco order and ordered from Amazon.com. I just called Costco and it hasn't even shipped yet and I ordered on Friday and paid for expidited shipping. So I'm guessing depending where your located probably 7 - 10 days for real.

I'm going to let my Costco order stand. State needs the money Wink Wink

For $25 it is nice knowing the store is local and I can return it if something isn't right. A lot can happen in the first 90 days and by then they will be even cheaper at Amazon.

I ordered the 760 on Friday and it still said "In Process" @ 5:30 this evening. So I called and cancelled they said they would try to cancel but if it didn't cancel just take to the nearest costco they will refund the price paid (including shipping).

i originally ordered it from amazon yesterday for 349, but cancelled it a few minutes later, and went with my costco account online for the same price, since amazon WAS charging me tax (im in NY). since it was going to be the same price, i went with costco for its great return policy. no questions asked - just return it at the store within 90 days. and like someone said above, by then prices may go down...

I ordered mine last friday and was shipped out on saturday, scheduled to arrive this week thursday.
By the way, those people who ordered from amazon.com for similar price may note that the shipping date estimate is quoted as 1-2 "months". I'm not sure how accurate this is. Some people have mentioned the fact that if you are premier amazon customer, they will ship it much quicker...

Ordered a 760 from Amazon yesterday, it shipped yesterday I will receive it on Thursday. I specified 2 day shipping. I am not a preferred customer.

The price did go up this morning to $359, then Amazon ran out of stock.

Ordered mine yesterday from Amazon. This morning I received an email saying it had shipped with a UPS tracking number. Checked UPS and it is scheduled to be delivered today. Can't get it much faster than that unless you buy it at a local store.

I ordered mine on Saturday the 31st. It shipped on Monday from Oklahoma and UPS shows it delivering Thursday the 5th. I chose free standard delivery. This is odd for Costco. I have ordered things from them in the past and it normally takes about 7 days.
