eBay Daily Deal: EOS 6D for $1399 (Import) from BigValueInc


Today’s eBay Daily Deal is from BigValueInc via eBay. They have the Canon EOS 6D for $1399.99. Note that this is an import model and a split kit, but the listing states that the item has both WiFi and GPS, just like the US model.

BigValueInc via eBay is not an authorized dealer so a Canon USA warranty is not guaranteed. A store warranty is provided instead. For this store we calculate a 98.9% feedback score when looking at Canon items only (eBay score is 99.3%).

Compare with $1649 from an authorized dealer through our street price program, as there currently is no rebate available on this camera.

New Tool: CanonPriceWatch’s eBay Dealer Reputation Reports

At CanonPriceWatch we take the reputation of the stores we list very seriously! About a year ago, we created a tool to analyze the reputation of eBay dealers. This is one of the factors to decide which stores are reputable, and which are not. We’re happy to now share it with our readers!

>> CanonPriceWatch eBay Reputation Reports.

This very intense analysis of eBay feedback is especially important for unauthorized dealers. We calculate and track our own “feedback score” that is more stringent than eBay’s feedback score. We only include feedback on high-value Canon items so dealers can’t pad their feedback (as is very common), and also penalize for “neutral” feedback instead of just ignoring it in the score (like eBay does).

You can check out our reputation reports for the major eBay dealers that we list — and also one we do not list (you’ll see why). For example, check out authorized dealer Profeel‘s incredible perfect rating, or unauthorized dealer Get It Digital‘s history. You can even drill down and read feedback received by the retailer on a specific item, e.g. feedback on 6ave on only 60D purchases.
