We’ve just now heard of a new set of mail-in rebates beginning on Sunday, May 3rd at Canon USA authorized dealers. This comes on the heels of a recent permanent price drop, resulting in some very low prices. Rebates end on May 30th.

That means we will have incredible street prices on many lenses, including the lowest street price seen yet for the EF 16-35mm f/4L IS USM at $949!

Our very popular street price program turns one year old today — we launched it exactly one year ago! It’s been our pleasure to help the Canon photographer community get great deals on brand new Canon equipment from authorized dealers, while providing top-notch customer service.

The program has grown larger and faster than we ever expected. Over the last year we’ve helped over ten thousand readers save money via street price, an average savings of 13% per purchase (vs. the Canon minimum advertised price, or MAP.) In total, we’ve saved our readers hundreds of thousands of dollars.

We’d like to thank you, our readers, for your support and making this street price program a continued success. We’re happy that so many of you have shared the “street price secret” with friends, colleagues, and family. These word-of-mouth referrals, reviews, and purchases give this program an incredible group buying power today. This volume buying power drives down the prices and enables us to negotiate the best deals.

We’re looking forward to many more years of great deals, as we continue to expand and improve our street price offerings. If you haven’t tried street price yet, perhaps this is the year to start?
