Adorama “Open Box” Specials on Cameras and Lenses Still Live


Authorized Canon dealer Adorama continues to have “open box” specials on select cameras and lenses. Adorama gives the condition as “Open Box – Packaging may show some wear and tear. Includes all original accessories and full 1 year Canon USA warranty.” From previous sales, readers report receiving items in pristine condition with no evidence of being previously opened.

We also recommend comparing the prices versus our street price program to take advantage of the lens combo mail-in rebate, or the free CarePAK Plus promotion.

Check out all the open box specials at Adorama.
