0.O Wow! Good fun for all who get in on that. Cheers!
If only…
Only 1d-x? Will there be anything else in the group buy?
Rather than do a massive group buy of everything at once we’re going to do individual items periodically.
Does that mean there will be multiple April group buys or is this it?
Stay tuned…
Great idea CPW! Go, go, go group buys…
how about a 6D?
gotta buy now!
I second a 6D
Wait a second, are you talking Grey market group buy?
No — we’ll have more details in the e-mail. Sorry for the secrecy.
In the past, how reliable have these type of group purchases been?
Our March group buy was a success — although it could have gone smoother; demand way exceeded the inventory and it took a while to get all the orders filled. I think there are a few people still waiting but the store will honor all purchases at that price.
how can I contact wity u?
I was in the March group buy. It was backordered but the company kept in contact and answered all my questions. I ended up buying a body and a speedlight from them as well. Got my body in less than a week. So far, my experience has been wonderful and I’m buying stuff outside of group buy deals.
Nice one! Hopefully this bus will stop at my stop (35mm L, 600-EX-RT) some day
I third a 6d
Anyone for 16-35 ii
second
How about something with a “C” — a bouncy “C?” Sorry, old line from a movie. Any chance we might see something from the Cinema line? Or is that heresy here?
I fourth a 6d
E-mails have been sent to everyone signed up for a notification.
I would like to be notified of this deal but did not see a “notify” button. How can i get added?
Me too, no notify button either
A 6D group buy would be pretty cool.
The 6D goes on sale all the time. Sorry for the harshness, but have you been sleeping for the past several months? The editors here post amazing deals on the 6D frequently. The group buy is really better for stuff that NEVER goes on sale. Its the only way to get a discount on that stuff unfortunately.
24 ts-e !
Got 1, thanks CPW…
My last group buy was great! Got my 70-200 f/4 today!! Thanks CPW !!
Arghhhh, work all day come home late and see that too late
I’d do it if it was for the 1Dx Wildlife edition
Are there plans for another group buy?
And the next step is ……
Did you signup last night for a notification? The e-mail went out already… people signed up, and there’s already a waitlist.
Yes I did. Confirmed my notification at 11 est. Even checked my spam. Received nothing. Have cash in hand and was ready to by this morning !!
If you didn’t get an e-mail, or missed out and are still interested, please use the contact form to send us a message.

April Fool Buy ?
This is real. We don’t joke around about stuff like this.
Yes, a ^D deal would be great!
Sorry that should have been 6D.
Man, I just bought one today direct from Canon. My company gets a discount from Canon, I got mine for $5813 excluding tax. I wonder how good of a price this deal is.
Waiting for the 85L group buy. I miss out on the deal last time.
Camera will be here Friday, even better price than the last time…!!!
Thanks CPW, now if I could get my 85L shipped life would be great.
Please send me an email for canon 85mm mark II. Thank you
No need to wait.
The 6D is at 1500 today:

Got my 85mm 1.2 II through Group Buy. Love….
I am waiting for 5D Mark III.
Still waiting on my 85L from group buy, enjoy yours for me, Okay

My 1Dx did arrive a Day early though
Seller’s feedback includes missing US Warranty cards. No thanks!
Just to be clear — you’re referring to getitdigital via eBay — most of the time their stock is US model (even if it is missing a warranty card).
You can always register your camera online with Canon. That’s what one of the seller had told me.
Group buy 6D 24-105 kit at $1999 or less, please.
Picked up my 1Dx at the Post Office a Day Early…CPW & Gordon you guys ROCK…!!! :-d
Still waiting on my 85L group buy …..
I guess you & I are at the tail end of the 85L recipients…:-(
