No idea of the quality, but I've seen the 4 and 8 camera plus DVR systems at BJs club. I imagine Costco or Sams would have them too if you're a member there. Might try Intrex computers also.

This is more of a DIY suggestion, but I recently picked up some truly wireless (meaning they're battery powered so no cables at all) from Blink Home, and they seem pretty good so far. Also have integration now with SmartThings platform if you want to start setting up Door/window sensors etc as well. I have not field tested any of this stuff (knock on wood) in the sense of recording a break in.
Consider going with either Nest or Blink. Blink is very affordable and insanely easy to use (other than the base they are completely wireless). Nest offers better cameras and the option of online video retention, but they are wired and a bit more expensive.
The Day & Night Wi-Fi Camera (DCS-932L) is a video surveillance solution for your home or small office. The DCS-932L is a standalone surveillance camera that requires no special hardware or software, and can run independently even without a PC and it even includes sound & motion detection. Send e-mail notifications with snapshots whenever sound or motion is detected using just the DCS-932L and an Internet connection. You can even customize areas and volumes to monitor for motion or loud noises - helping you keep watch over entryways or sensitive areas of a room. Night time monitoring is possible with the built-in infrared LEDs which allow for night time viewing of up to 16 feet, enabling round-the-clock monitoring of a home or small office.

+1 for mentioning SmartThings integration. I've been building up lighting automation and such at a place I own elsewhere and SmartThings seems to be a very robust platform. Plays well with Nest products, Phillips Hue, Amazon Echo, Schlage and a boat load of other components. Samsung (SmartThings lead dog as it were) has also been working hard to issue regular software updates to knock bugs out and integrate more products into the ecosystem.
Might be worth considering using a camera product where you can leverage some of that horsepower should you decide later to get into doing some smart home products or installation.
YMMV
