There is a price drop on the EOS 5D Mark IV<\/a> in the grey market. Electronics Valley via eBay<\/a> has this camera for $2799.00<\/a>, that is $100 lower than Black Friday. Please note this is a grey market camera, and Electronics Valley<\/a> (also known as BigValueInc) is not a Canon USA authorized dealer. A Canon USA warranty is not guaranteed, only a 1-year store warranty is included. Historically Canon USA has honored the warranty on grey market items, but that is completely at their discretion. Also, there may be an upsell call — be sure to decline all upgrades.<\/p>\n

If you prefer brand new from an authorized Canon dealer with a 1-year Canon USA warranty, please consider our street price of $3199<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Lots of readers asking if there any “gotchas” with the grey market purchase. There are three important ones. One is return policy<\/b> — unless the item is defective, there really isn’t one. The store will<\/i> charge a hefty restock fee if you’re returning it. Once you’ve paid, even if the item hasn’t shipped, it’s difficult to cancel your order without invoking the return + restock. Please be sure you want this before paying. Second, is after-sales service<\/b>. The vast majority of readers (probably 98%, 99%) haven’t experienced problems, but the 1-2% that do, it may take some patience to get your issue resolved (be it shipping damage, defective items, missing accessories, etc.) This isn’t a big operation (like most authorized dealers are) with the resources invested in customer service, this is why the price is so low! Third, in past sales the dealer has had issues filling orders in time<\/b>, so please expect an additional 1-2 week delay.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
