Canon Mail-in Rebate: 24-70 II for $1799 AR, 70-200 II for $1949 AR


It’s been two days since Canon started a mail-in rebate on 27 lenses. Thus far, the most popular street price lens deals in the new rebate have been the 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM II for $1949 AR and the 24-70mm f/2.8L II USM for $1799 AR.

The rebate also renewed the $200 mail-in rebate on the EOS 5D Mark III ($2699 AR) and the EOS 6D ($1439 AR).

Finally, one oddity: the rebate form shows an increased rebate this month, from $300 to $350, on the PIXMA PRO-100 Printer + Paper. This makes the printer $48 AR at B&H or Adorama — but perhaps we’ll see a price drop before the month is up?



5D Mark III + Printer $2849 AR Adorama; Street Price $2699 AR Body


UPDATE: B&H Photo Video has now matched this bundle.

Adorama has a bundle of the EOS 5D Mark III and PIXMA PRO-100 for $2849.00, after a $550 mail-in rebate. They are also including in a free bag, package of Canon photo paper, a third-party battery, and third-party grip.

Click here for B&H’s deal, or here for Adorama’s. The current mail-in rebate ends on Saturday.

If all the extras don’t interest you, please also consider our street price of $2699 (after the $200 Canon mail-in rebate), brand new from a US authorized dealer with full Canon USA warranty.



eBay Frenzy: 5D Mark III (Import) $2569 from GetItDigital


Today’s eBay Frenzy deal is from Get It Digital via eBay. They have the Canon EOS 5D Mark III for $2569.99.

Get It Digital via eBay is not an authorized dealer. They are likely selling import model 5D Mark III, where a Canon USA warranty is not guaranteed: instead the store is providing a store warranty. The store has a feedback score of 99.3% when looking at high-end Canon items.

In the last sale they sold hundreds at this price; most of the feedback was good, but there was one negative report, where a reader was shipped a damaged Canon box (camera seems okay). If you are willing to take a (small) risk, this is a great way to get a 5D Mark III at a great price. Or you can consider our street price of $2699 brand new from an authorized Canon USA dealer with full Canon USA warranty, which is only $130 more.

The other frenzy deal today is the EOS 70D with 18-135 IS STM Kit for $1099 from BigValueInc.



Street Price Drop: 5D Mark III $2699 and EOS 6D $1449 (After Rebates)


We’re really pleased to confirm a $200 mail-in rebate starting on Sunday for the EOS 5D Mark III and EOS 6D. The rebate period lasts for four weeks. We’ve lowered our street prices to $2699 and $1449 respectively (net price after $200 mail-in rebate).

You can contact us now via the street price form and we can help you get your order placed as soon as the rebate starts.

Also included is a rebate on the PIXMA PRO-100, but unfortunately it has been lowered in value. The rebate is now only $350 on a PIXMA PRO-100 printer (when bundled with an eligible camera and paper purchase). This is down from the $400 rebate, and likely makes these bundles no longer such a great deal.

There are also no standalone lens rebates, so sadly the current lens street prices will expire.



eBay Frenzy: 5D Mark III (Import) for $2559 at GetItDigital


A new eBay Deal Frenzy starts today! GetItDigital via eBay has the Canon EOS 5D Mark III for $2559.99. It’s likely an import.

GetItDigital via eBay is not an authorized dealer. However, they are a reputable unauthorized dealer, the same store as AllNewShop. In the last few frenzies they’ve sold hundreds of 5D Mark IIIs for this price, and we’ve heard very positive reader stories (with issues being rare and resolved expediently).

If you don’t want to read our detailed article here is the summary of what “import model” means:

  1. Import / grey market items were items originally destined to be sold in a different region.
  2. They are manufactured at the same factories as US models, and are physically identical.
  3. Packaging (language on box) may differ from US retail versions.
  4. Although Canon USA has been traditionally lenient in providing warranty service, a Canon USA warranty is not guaranteed. An similar warranty is provided by the store itself.

Compare with $3199 at authorized dealers or $2899 authorized through our street price program. There is currently no Canon mail-in or instant rebate available for this camera.



5D Mark III and 6D Rebates NOT Extended, Expire Saturday


We have now heard a few times that the $200 mail-in rebate on the 5D Mark III and 6D will NOT be extended. They are only good on purchases made on or before Saturday, August 2nd, which means a $200 increase on the effective price of 5D Mark III and 6D until the next rebate period begins.

It’s not too late, even if you purchase now. You have until September 2nd to mail your rebate form.

If you want to take advantage of our street prices, your order should be placed by noon tomorrow, Friday, as many stores do not operate on Saturday.

The lens rebates are still valid until August 30th.



6D + Printer $1498 AR, 5D Mark III + Printer $2798 AR, at BuyDig

They also have the EOS 5D Mark III and PIXMA PRO-100 for $2798.00 (use coupon code EMPRO5H), after a $600 mail-in rebate.
