Three good Lexar deals are going on, for high-speed UDMA 7 compact flash cards, as well as 600x UHS-I SD cards.
B&H Photo Video has the Lexar 32GB Professional 1066x UDMA 7 compact flash card for $63.95.
Adorama has the Lexar 64GB Professional 1066x UDMA 7 compact flash card for $89.95. This one’s out of stock as it was popular, but back-orders are accepted.
Finally, for SD card users, B&H Photo Video has a two-pack of Lexar 64GB SDXC Professional Class 10 600x UHS-I cards for $97.95.
Yesterday we posted a deal from “BestStopDeals via eBay” featuring the EOS 6D + 24-105mm at $1899.
We called the store when the deal started and they informed us it was US model + USA warranty card. However over the course of the day they changed their tune, and several readers reported that they were now saying it’s an “International warranty card” (which is one of the signs of a non-US body).
We’re not too happy with this retailer and the confusion they’re causing. Needless to say, we won’t be posting any more deals from “BestStopDeals via eBay” until they clean up their act.
UPDATE: I spoke to the owner of BestStopDeals by phone today. He explained that the confusion on Tuesday was caused by a new customer service rep who did not answer the questions about the warranty cards correctly. The owner gave me his assurances that all the bodies sold in this deal were brand new Canon USA models and were fully eligible for the Canon USA warranty. Most boxes will have the Canon USA warranty card, however, as we explain in our article, some may have been removed by the original authorized dealer. As we note in our article you don’t need the warranty card for service (just the receipt) but the warranty card is often a good proof of Canon USA status.
I am quite satisfied by his explanation, and the initial reports from readers who have received US models mostly with USA warranty cards corroborates his explanation. Any customer who is not satisfied is welcome to contact the store, or you can contact me and I can help relay the message. He also notes the store will back the Canon USA warranty should there be any issues — but we’re always here for you if you need us.
You can read more for the original guarantee we offered, but hopefully no one needs this anymore.
The Canon Direct Store sale on refurbished lenses, speedlites, and EOS bodies just got restocked. They’re offering $125 off a purchase of $500, $50 off a purchase of $250. On a $500 item, that is up to 25% off. Add to cart to see the discount.
Again, the best deals are the ones that are close to $250 or $500. We’ve listed some of the best deals (as well as the very popular items) above.
As usual, check out our refurbished stock tracker for the full list.
AllNewShop via eBay must not have been selling many Canon EOS 5D Mark III for $2559.99 (import version) so they’ve now added a Free 3-Year Extended Warranty to their deal. This is part of the on-going eBay Deal Frenzy!
AllNewShop via eBay is not an authorized dealer, but they are one of the most reliable unauthorized dealers — they’re the same company as Get It Digital, and their new additional extended warranty actually looks pretty decent. They claim their warranty is serviced at authorized repair centers only, no hidden fees, can be even serviced overseas, and even comes with a free annual cleaning.
Again, the bodies in today’s sale are import versions as they clearly write in the listing description. As usual you can read our explanation of authorized, unauthorized, and grey market.
If you bought yesterday before the listing was changed you may want to ask if you can also get the 3-year warranty added for free too!
NEW UPDATE: Some of our readers have received this — they are reporting it’s brand new with Canon USA warranty cards in the box! Also, many people are calling today and they are now telling people it’s USA warranty card. (But don’t take our word for it; call and ask yourself: 1-877-254-6155.)
UPDATE: We have now had two reports of our readers receiving a brand new 6D+24-105mm but with no warranty card in the box.
BestStopDeals via eBay has the Canon EOS 6D with 24-105 Kit for $1899.99. This is part of the on-going eBay Deal Frenzy.
BestStopDeals is not an authorized dealer, but a quick call confirms that they are selling US model with Canon US warranty cards in this deal. (Call to confirm: 1-877-254-6155.) Free shipping is included, and they only charge sales tax to New Jersey.
They have 98.6% positive feedback, which is not as good as the top unauthorized dealers, but is still overwhelmingly positive. Compare with $2299 at authorized dealers.
It’s the same price as the BuyDig “Refurbished” deal but without the free Lightroom 5.
AllNewShop via eBay has the Canon EOS 5D Mark III for $2559.99. This deal is back, as part of an eBay Deal Frenzy!
AllNewShop via eBay is not an authorized dealer, but they are one of the most reliable unauthorized dealers — they’re the same company as Get It Digital.
The retailer has let us know that the bodies in today’s sale are import versions (not USA model like their last sale, too bad!) but they are still covered at a minimum by a store warranty for 12 months. They explicitly and clearly write this in the listing description as well. As usual you can read our explanation of authorized, unauthorized, and grey market.
In applying a refurbished discount the Canon Direct Store has made a mistake and is also applying this discount to all new ultra-wide-angle zoom lenses. This is a likely a price mistake.
Until they fix it, you can take advantage of a discount on five UWA zoom lenses, including a rare discounted pre-order on the two recently announced lenses. Add to cart to see discount.
UPDATE: This has been fixed, this deal is now dead.
The other three improperly discounted include:
Pre-orders at the Canon store also come with a commemorative “100 Million EF Lenses” t-shirt.
