Canon Store Price Mistake? 27% off Refurbs, 5D Mark III for $1525

UPDATE: Sadly, as of 9:45 PM ET, this deal is now dead. The coupon codes no longer stack, and it’s now back to the regular 15% discount. Now we wait to see if the orders are filled. Please update us by commenting here if you hear anything…

UPDATE (Oct 26 6:30 PM): Things are shipping! Most readers are reporting tracking numbers and shipping confirmations. Congrats if you got in on this deal, it’s a fantastic one.

The Canon Direct Store seems to have made a price mistake: they have coupon codes for 15%, 10% and 5% off that are stackable for an incredible 27% discount on all refurbished items.

Apply coupon codes JACKOLANTERN, TRICKORTREAT, and WITCH for the discount. Coupon code “ONEPAL” for free overnight shipping, if you pay using PayPal.

Last time this happened, the Canon Direct Store fixed the error within hours, but did honor all orders placed. These prices are absolutely incredible and we strongly recommend you buy now and think later. Check out the refurbished stock tracker to see the full list of items in-stock. If you ordered already — order again with the coupons and cancel your old order. DO NOT CALL THE STORE to adjust your previous order. Remember, you get a 1-year warranty and 14-day return period.

This will likely hit the deal forums and explode — remember, you saw it first on CanonPriceWatch 🙂




Refurb Sale: 15% off Refurbished Cameras and Lenses (with Coupon)

UPDATE: It’s now possible to get a 27% discount, by stacking coupons. This is probably a price mistake. See this post for the details.

The Canon Direct Store started a refurbished sale, they are discounting all refurbished cameras and lenses by 15% when you use coupon code “JACKOLANTERN” in-cart. Free shipping. Many of the desirable items are not in-stock at this time, but we expect a restock sometime between now and when the sale ends on October 31st.

Deal is Back: 5D Mark III for $1899 Grey Market, AllNewShop eBay


This deal is back: AllNewShop via eBay has the Canon EOS 5D Mark III for $1899.00. This ties for the lowest price for the 5D Mark III seen yet.

AllNewShop via eBay (also known as GetItDigital) is not an authorized dealer, so this is import or grey market. A Canon USA warranty is not guaranteed, but Canon USA is historically known to honor it anyway (at their discretion and subject to change at any time.) Please beware an upsell call and stay firm — decline all “upgrades” to a “Canon USA model”.
