What to Expect on Amazon Prime Day, October 13th and 14th

by . 1 comment.

This year’s Amazon “Prime Day” will start on Tuesday, October 13th. The deals start at 3 AM ET on Tuesday and run 48 hours until 3 AM ET on Thursday. Amazon’s Prime Day will have many exciting deals, many restricted to Amazon Prime members only. Just like the previous five years, CanonPriceWatch will be watching all the deals.

Don’t expect deals on Canon cameras or lenses on Prime Day. Canon items are restricted by a MAP year-round and Prime Day is no exception (although in at least one of the past years there were massive price mistakes on Canon at the 3 AM start — these were fixed within 15 minutes). You can browse our 2019 live-update post, the 2018 live-update post, or our archive of Prime Day related deals for examples of the types of deals available. We expect to see great prices on memory cards, filters, bags, Rokinon lenses, color calibration, studio equipment, and perhaps a 3rd party lens or two. Deals sell out quickly, so be prepared to jump on them (or waitlist). It is also a perfect time to pick up Amazon devices (such as Echo, Echo Dot, Fire TV, Fire Tablet, Kindle and assorted subscriptions).

As many deals are restricted to Amazon Prime members only, now would be a good time to sign-up for a free 30-day trial of Prime if you haven’t yet already. Be sure to check back on Tuesday 3 AM for the deals!

Back-Order

A great promotion at Amazon is back: until October 12th, you can get 10%-back total on select electronics when you make purchases using an Amazon Prime Card. This is an additional 5% cash back on top of the regular 5% cash back.

UPDATE 2: the R6 + RF 24-105 STM is back on the list! Please make sure it appears on the eligible item list before making your purchase!

One of the cameras included in the deal is the EOS R6 with RF 24-105mm f/4-7.1 IS STM — you can backorder at the price of $2799.00, and your final price would be about $2,519.10 net after 10% cash back, a great deal!

This offer ends on October 12th, right before Amazon Prime Day!

Our street prices on the very popular RF “Zoom Trinity” will be going up slightly (we’re expecting about $50-100 per lens) later this week. The advertised price has already gone up by $100 at most dealers, due to an expiring Canon rebate.

We expect the current prices to return with new rebates, in time for Thanksgiving (by late-November). If you don’t want to wait until then, please ensure your street price order is complete before Wednesday.

These street prices are from authorized Canon dealers, and all items come with a 1-year Canon USA warranty. No state sales tax is collected.


Many Readers Report Their EOS R5 Preorders Shipped Last Week

Pre-Order

Many CPW readers are reporting that their EOS R5 pre-orders shipped in the last few days. It appears that Canon USA got a large shipment of the camera. We’re hearing that B&H and the Canon Store were filling orders placed as late as mid-September.

The EOS R5 is still backordered everywhere, but it seems like supply may catch up to the demand soon. The Canon Store was even briefly showing the EOS R5 in-stock earlier today for a few minutes, but it sold out quickly. We think a backorder may be filled quickly.

We posted a very hot EOS R5 deal exclusively to watchlist subscribers last month, and it looks like all the cameras in that excellent deal shipped this week as well. If you don’t want to miss out on the next deal, be sure to add items to your personal watchlist.
