Nikon Coolpix P530 superzoom (imported model) for $230 [or refurbished authorized]
To the latest eBay Deals we geaux where we find the imported / gra market new condition Nikon Coolpix P530 superzoom offered for $230 with free shipping by eBay seller “bigvalueinc” (99.3%).

For others not so. We blog, you decide!

B&M: New York November 12 Big Adorama In-Store Sale
On Sunday November 12, the Adorama brick and mortar store is going to be having a big discount event.

The manufacturers participating in the event include Canon, Lexar, Profoto, Sandisk, Manfrotto, Adorama’s house brands, and more. You must needs RSVP for the event. Did I mention food and open bar? 😉 I mean, there will be tech demos and galleries and giveaways 🙂
