Canon Digital IXUS 950 IS Digital Camera Review at Trusted Reviews
A review of the feature-rich Canon Digital IXUS 950 IS digital camera has been posted over at Trusted Reviews. 'Like the rest of the Digital IXUS range, the 950 IS is an expensive camera. It is possible to find one online for £220, but you’re more likely to see it inthe high street for around £260, which is a lot of money for an 8-megapixel compact. That hardly-better-than-average zoom range means that the 950 is going to be competing with a much wider range of models than the equally pricey 850, and most of the competition costs less.
Models such as the new Fujifilm FinePix A820, which is just £130, or the Kodak EasyShare Z885 which is only £135 are practically budget cameras by comparison, while the Samsung DigiMax S1050 offers 5x zoom and 10 megapixels for around £210. Even the 7MP, 5x zoom Olympus mju Digital 750 is only £210, and that’s waterproof. Even the 8MP, 5x zoom Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T100 can be found for around £220. Anyone who wants both a longer zoom range and wide angle could chose either the Panasonic TZ3 (£250) or Ricoh Caplio R6 (£230) for less money.'

Hello,
I'm looking to buy the Kodak Z885 and I see brand new ones on sale at ebay for the buy-it-now price of $140 including shipping. This is the cheapest I could find. Are there any better deals?
Thanks,

Hi,
The Kodak Z885 is priced between the $140 - $180 range on the Web. The price you identified at Ebay is definitely a good deal so long as you are comfortable with purchases via that medium. However, you should bear in mind after sales service and consider spending the few extra bucks at an "established" retailer just in case you have issues with your purchase.
Hope you have an enjoyable experience with your camera.
