Just thought I'd let you guys know that Bass Pro Shops sells Metolius TCU (Three-Cam Units) for $38 or so +, depending upon size. Same units are $49.99 elsewhere. I picked up a #4 FTW.

They're an "outdoor" shop. They've traditionally focused on the hunters and fishermen, but they've got some good hiking/climbing stuff.

I was hoping you meant CAMeras. I need to find me a good cheap (erm - inexpensive) camera.

Yup. They have a small amount of camping and "other" gear. I used to hunt a lot, so a giftcard was given to me. Little did BPS know what I wanted to steal from them below MSRP...

Taco! did you get that from the Ontario shop or you did on-line?

Nothing even close to climbing equipment on their online shop, so it's gotta be an in-store thing. Maybe just the one location (product manager is a climber and wanted to stock his store with stuff he needs so he can get it at cost?).
