They guarantee that you'll get a new product with USA warranty, but won't tell you who's selling it.
Seems legit....just not knowing.....

the lowest price was in keeping with the offer the OP got.
Sure would like to know whom the eventual seller was for those purchasing a Canon

can also confirm hat i did not pay any additional (tax, shipping etc), my offer was all in price. which for me in NY is a pretty big savings.
i'm actually a canon shooter but have not bought a new camera in almost 10 years (6D v1), i was really torn on R6 vs A7, i went sony for something different and better 3rd party lenses, i'm using my sony with a sigma adaptor for my ef lenses and its still super fast. but still 2nd guessing myself leaving a system i've been shooting for almost 20 years.
I already had five Canon EF lenses, including expensive L-series zoom lenses. They all work perfectly with the Canon mirrorless. Canon sold over 10 million EF lenses; there is a HUGE used market of EF lenses. You can pick up a 70-200 f/2.8 image stabilized lens for under $1,000 which has incredible image quality.
Sure, if you insist on buying only Tier 1, brand-new, best-quality lenses, Canon costs a little bit more. If you want affordable lenses, the used Canon EF market kills Sony.
This particular camera is incredible. You would be hard-pressed to have requirements which exceed this camera's capabilities, unless you want one of the $5,000 global shutter cameras out there.

In the case of Canon, they engineered the new mirrorless mount and the cameras to accept the older EF lenses. Compatibility is guaranteed. The adapter is not optical, it simply adds more space because the lens flange to sensor distance in the mirrorless mount is shorter. If you have a compatibility problem, you can send the camera, mount and lens to Canon for calibration… although this is very rare, but at least you can get support for it.
I keep a Canon adapter on my Canon body 100% of the time, and just change out my EF lenses. They work 100% perfectly on the Canon mirrorless body. LOTS of people are doing this, because replacing a set of perfectly working EF-L lenses can cost well over $5,000, and you don't get anything new… why do that? Optically, lenses like the EF 70-200 f/2.8 IS II are utterly phenomenal and it makes little sense not to use one.
But adapters such as Metabones, which convert Canon lenses to Sony, for instance, that's a different story. You have three different brands so nobody can guarantee compatibility, and the expensive adapter has to electrically convert focus and aperture instructions from Canon to Sony. Not a great idea.

I am also considering the A7c II I don't NEED 2 cars slots but I like the insurance and the cii has great autofocus features.
