Dorothy-- I just got the LS8000, and came across the same issue. You can buy from rock solid places like B&H, and pay a bit more, or look around. I ended up getting mine from mycamera.com, a colorado based operation. Take a look at the feedback at www.photo.net to get a sense as to who is honest. Mycamera.com came up very high (but they seem to be a smaller operation). I've dealt with B&H a lot, and have had great experiences there as well. On the phone, the come across as gruff new yorkers, but you can avoid that if you order off the web.
Matt p.s. you probably shouldn't put your address in your email--too easy for baddys to get it. > Hi! I just bought a Nikon Coolscan 4000 off the net.
