Hot: 5D Mark III for $2513 Import eBay, or $2699 AR Authorized Dealer


EOS 5D Mark III prices have dropped: 6th Ave via eBay has the Canon EOS 5D Mark III for $2513.59. This is the lowest price we’ve seen since November 2013. This is an import model, which means a Canon USA warranty is not guaranteed, the store supplies a one-year store warranty instead.

6th Ave via eBay is a reputable unauthorized dealer with 99.0% positive feedback on high-value Canon items.

If you prefer an authorized dealer with a full Canon USA warranty, we have a street price of $2699 (after the $200 mail-in rebate), only $186 more. Free shipping and no tax.




Street Price: EF-S 17-55 f/2.8 IS for $719 (New!), 24-105 f/4L for $659


These two street prices are available this week and are not affected by the store closings!

We have a newly lowered street price on the EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS USM of only $719.00 (after rebate). This item is brand new in normal retail packaging, from an authorized dealer with full Canon USA warranty.

We still have a very popular street price on the EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM of $659.00. This item is brand new, in Canon white-box, from an authorized dealer with full Canon USA warranty.

Many of our street prices options are closed this week, but some are available. Please inquire if you are interested. The current round of mail-in rebates is eligible on purchases at Canon USA authorized dealers up to October 25th, giving you a window of five days after the stores re-open on October 20th. We are of course expecting some rebates to continue through the Holiday season, but you never know with Canon!



7D Mark II Pre-Order Deal with 24-70mm f/4L IS for Approx. $2099


The US dollar keeps on getting stronger (vs. the Canadian dollar), so this pre-order deal on the 7D Mark II keeps on getting better:

Camera Canada, a reputable Canadian authorized Canon dealer, has the EOS 7D Mark II and EF 24-70mm f/4L IS USM for $2298 Canadian Dollars + shipping (approximately $2099.00 US dollars, given current exchange rates).

This is a fantastic deal because Canadian cameras have been historically supplied with a Canon USA & Canada warranty card that is valid for Canon USA warranty. As the 7D Mark II pre-orders for $1799 in the US, it is like getting the EF 24-70mm f/4L IS USM for only $300. This is a lens that is regularly $999 (and that’s only after a recent $500 price drop).

Our readers report paying no tax, duty, or other custom fees when purchasing from Camera Canada. Click here to check out the deal at Camera Canada. Since this is a pre-order, you won’t be charged until your order ships (if you use a credit card), just place an order to be on their list. Please note the official price is $2298 Canadian dollars + shipping. We can’t predict where exchange rates will be in one month, as you aren’t billed until the item ships, but at today’s rates it is $2099 USD. Our readers report that Camera Canada has been open to billing in US dollars at the prevailing exchange rate, so you can ask them about this in November when it comes time to pay for the order.

This is an official pre-order deal that Canon is running exclusively in Canada. Also note, Canon Canada now requires everyone who is taking part in this offer to submit a form with a Canadian address, to prove that you are an end-consumer and not making large orders for re-sale. So you will need a Canadian address for Canon, but note that every store we’ve spoken to says they will still ship the purchase to an address of your choice (it doesn’t have to be the one on the form).

Authorized Sigma Dealer 47st Photo via Amazon has the Sigma Art 35mm f/1.4 DG HSM for Canon for $799.00. This ties for the lowest price ever on this lens, which was last seen during Holiday 2013. Compare with $899 at other stores.

Canon Refurbished Store was Restocked

eBay Frenzy: EOS 6D for $1349 (Import) at BigValueInc


Today’s eBay frenzy deal is another great deal from BigValueInc. They have the Canon EOS 6D for $1349.99. This ties for the lowest price seen for this body new (note this is likely import version, but has WiFi and GPS).

BigValueInc is a reputable unauthorized dealer who has been a source of reliable deals over the last few years. They have a 98.9% feedback score on high-value Canon items.

This is an import version (physically identical to the US model, but not intended for the US market). A Canon USA warranty is not guaranteed, so the store provides a warranty instead. If you instead prefer an authorized USA dealer with full Canon USA warranty, consider our street price of $1439 AR from an authorized dealer, only $90 more (but please note we’re unable to get the street price order shipped until next week, due to the store closings).
