Adorama,
Midwest Photo (mpex.com)
Roberts...

I use these three as well as Buydig.com

Probably Midwest the most since it is local for me.

Hmm so we pretty much are on the same keel here. I want to so desperately add a D7000 to my Nikon corral. HOWEVER after Tony5094 brought to my attention the US Nikons do differ from "imported" Nikons in the mid class range.

I just so happened to stumble upon this and it covers ALL ( Nikon Canon LEICA Pentax)

+1 on Adorama. I've bought refurb lenses from them before and have pretty good prices.
