If you are not afraid of refurbished DSLRs, you can get a loaded refurbished Nikon D3100 with 18-55 bundle at Adorama for $435 with free shipping! This includes the Nikon D3100 w/18-55 along with these bonus items: Slinger bag, extra Nikon battery, 4GB SD, camera grip hand strap, and the Red Giant Magic Bullet PhotoLooks V1.5 Software.

This is an on-going price, it is not part of a lightning deal, so you can buy as many 100 packs as you like. The price can however change at any time and for any reason. No rebates! This is a 8.5x11 Kodak paper, not the 4x6 paper which you can frequently get as a Staples Easy Rebate special.

Used Fuji X100 (X-One-Hundred) for $866 (USED)

The price was $841 when we mentioned this a few days ago, but I don't recall if the $841 price was for a "Good" or "Very Good" condition. Amazon Warehouse Deals has three tiers of USED ratings, "Like New", "Very Good", and "Good".

This is yet another sign of too many P&S cameras in the market getting replaced too quickly. The O-word comes to mind! (oversaturation!)

As of a 7:48pm EST check, the Amazon Warehouse Deals specials have sold-out! Used items are often limited quantity specials...

Beach Camera on eBay is offering the Canon 60D with the 18-135mm lens and the Pixma Pro 9000 Mark II printer for $1375 with free shipping. Since Beach Camera is an authorized Canon dealer, the combined purchase qualifies you for the $400 American Express gift card via mail-in rebate promotion. So, you pay $1375 for the bundle, receive your items, inspect/test them to make sure they are working, submit the AMEX mail-in-rebate, and then in a few weeks you will receive a $400 pre-paid American Express gift card. The mail-in rebate is not a check, but an AMEX gift card. If you consider the AMEX gift card as cash-equivalent, your effective price is $975.

As usual with eBay Daily Deals, they can last from a few hours to a few days, partially determined by supply and demand.
