eBay Deals: 1DX for $4199, 6D for $1199, 24-105L for $607

	EOS-1D X Digital SLR Camera	$4194.00 Deal Expired

	EOS 6D Digital SLR Camera	$963.99 Deal Expired

	EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM Standard Zoom Lens	$607.49 Deal Expired

Here are three great eBay grey market / import deals:

AllNewShop via eBay has the Canon EOS-1D X for $4199.99. This ties the lowest price that we’ve ever seen on this camera. We warn that the store does attempt to upsell. Stay firm and they will ship you a brand new Canon EOS-1D X, with a 1-year store warranty at this fantastic $4199.99 price. (Based on reader reports, Canon USA will still provide warranty service on grey bodies, but Canon USA can change this at any time.)

The deal from thepixelhub via eBay on the Canon EOS 6D for $1199.99 is still live — 80 bodies sold. This is the lowest EOS 6D price ever seen. Our authorized dealer street price of $1299 is only $100 more with a guaranteed Canon USA warranty (after the $300 Canon mail-in rebate).

There’s a new deal from Get It Digital via eBay. They have the EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM for $607.49. Compare with our authorized dealer street price of $629 with a guaranteed Canon USA warranty.

Street Prices: Sigma Art 24mm $799, Tamron 150-600mm $999

	Art 24mm f/1.4 DG HSM for Canon Street Price	$799.00 Deal Expired

	SP 150-600mm f/5-6.3 Di VC USD for Canon Street Price	$969.00 Deal Expired

We’re pleased to offer our first street price pre-order: you can now pre-order the recently announced Sigma Art 24mm f/1.4 for $799 from a Sigma USA authorized dealer with free shipping. The street price is a $50 discount off the current price. The first allocation of lenses is expected on March 20th.

The street price on the Tamron SP 150-600mm VC has also now dropped to $999, from an authorized Tamron dealer with a 6-year Tamron USA warranty, and free shipping.

Finally, we still have the Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS for $629, brand new from an authorized Canon USA dealer, 1-year Canon USA Warranty and free shipping. This price is only slightly above current unauthorized dealer price of $610, and below the previous refurbished sale price of $643+tax.

Our street price program has been immensely popular and grows busier by the day! If you’re still new to our street price program — please read our FAQ, read the reviews, then check out all the street prices.

eBay Daily Deal: EOS 6D (WiFi/GPS) for $1199 from thepixelhub

Posted February 19, 2015 at 9:07 am EDT by CanonPriceWatch. 9 comments.

	EOS 6D Digital SLR Camera	$963.99 Deal Expired

	EOS 6D Street Price	$1269.00 Deal Expired

This is the lowest price on the EOS 6D we’ve seen yet: thepixelhub via eBay has the Canon EOS 6D for $1199.99. This is today’s eBay Daily Deal. It’s likely grey market.

We’ve never heard of thepixelhub before, so we did some research: they have a solid eBay history of selling Canon items. Recent transactions on the 6D appear successful (except one person who didn’t realize this was a grey market / import).

The listing clearly indicates built-in WiFi and GPS; they also mention a 1-year Canon USA warranty, but our readers know that this is at the discretion of Canon USA (as they are not an authorized dealer). Overall, this checks out as legit, also you have eBay/PayPal/credit card buyer protection to back you up in case anything goes awry. UPDATE: The seller modified their listing to change “Canon USA Warranty” to “Seller Warranty”.

If you are still uncomfortable, a popular alternative is our street price of $1299 after $300 mail-in rebate from a Canon USA authorized dealer with free shipping. That $100 buys you a guaranteed Canon USA warranty, a great return policy, and a bit more piece of mind as the transaction is with a very reputable authorized dealer, one that we already list on our site.

(In other news, Tuesday’s 5D Mark III $1999 blow-out sold out — a total of 400 bodies sold.)

Hot: 5D Mark III (Import / Grey Market) for $1999, GetItDigital via eBay

Posted February 17, 2015 at 6:19 pm EDT by CanonPriceWatch. 52 comments.

EOS 5D Mark III Digital SLR Camera

$1999.99

Deal Expired

This is the price drop we’ve all been waiting for: Get It Digital via eBay has the Canon EOS 5D Mark III for $1999.99. This is the new lowest price that we’ve seen yet on this camera, $150 below the previous low of $2149!

This is likely an import, as Get It Digital via eBay is not an authorized dealer. As a result, a Canon USA warranty is not guaranteed (the store provides a warranty instead). Historically Canon USA has provided warranty service on grey market bodies anyway — but this is at the discretion of Canon USA, and can change at any time.

Although this retailer has been a reliable eBay seller based on eBay feedback and reader feedback, we will caution that they have recently attempted up-sell calls (asking you to upgrade to a USA model). Stay firm and insist that they process your order at the $1999 price, there are no physical differences between import models and USA models, even though they may attempt to convince you otherwise.

UPDATE: As usual, the grey market vs. USA model debate! You can read our FAQ on the topic here.

UPDATE 2: 337 sold during this sale, and still counting. This is now one of the most popular 5D Mark III deals in the past year.
