eBay Daily Deal: Drobo 4-Bay with USB 3.0 for $229 from Adorama


Today’s eBay Daily Deal is from Adorama via eBay. They have the Drobo 4-Bay USB 3.0 (3rd Generation) for $229.99.

This is the older 4-drive version of the Drobo storage array, but this is a fantastic price point for a redundant storage array. Regular price for this Drobo is $299, and current-generation 5-bay Drobos go for $500-600.

Drobo is much more of a closed system but we’ve had very good experiences with them.



Street Price Combo: 7D Mark II + 100-400mm II for $3729


What’s better than the two big 2014 Canon announcements? A great deal with them together. We now have a street price bundle of the EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II and the 7D Mark II for $3729 brand new from authorized Canon USA dealers. This is $268 lower than the MAP price of $3998.

We also have other street price combos involving the 100-400mm II, please inquire via the 100-400mm II street price form (please mention what you’re looking for in a comment).



6D + 24-105mm Now Available Refurbished: $1819.20 at Canon Store


The Canon Direct Store has the EOS 6D + 24-105mm f/4L IS USM refurbished for $1819.20. There’s currently a $100-off sale. This is the first time we’ve seen the 6D kit available refurbished.

As the Canon Direct Store collects sales tax to most states, savvy readers will know the street price of $1830 after the $300 Canon mail-in rebate is a better deal, for a brand new item, no tax (for most states), from Canon USA authorized dealers.



New Street Price: Tamron 150-600mm f/5-6.3 VC for $1016


We now have a street price of $1016 from an authorized Tamron dealer on the Tamron SP 150-600mm f/5-6.3 Di VC USD. This item is brand new and carries a 6-year Tamron USA warranty. Free shipping within the USA. Compare with $1069 regular price.

This very popular lens has been on low allocation and was effectively sold out everywhere since its first offering over a year ago. For good reason too: the lens reviews very well and is at a price point that is more than accessible to most. Only recently has the lens been in good supply, so it has taken this long before a good street price emerged.



Canon Refurbished Store Restocked — Up to $100 Off


The Canon Direct store restocked. There is currently a sale: $100 off purchases of $500 or more. You see this discount in-cart.



Street Price Combo Discount: 5D3 or 6D + 24-70 II or 70-200 II


The first-ever street price combo discount: for one week only, authorized dealers are giving an additional $50 discount when you purchase select bodies and lenses together at street price.

This discount applies to the following popular items. All items are brand new from authorized dealers with a Canon USA 1-year warranty. Discount only applies to items purchased and shipped together.

For example, a EOS 6D plus a EF 24-70mm f/2.8L II USM would only be $2988 AR (regular street price $3038 AR, or MAP price $3348 AR). As you know, our street prices are already quite low so these combo discounts aren’t usually offered. If interested, submit street price forms on both items, and mention you’d like the “COMBO” discount.
