Ten Tips to Help Paranoid Shoppers Prepare for Amazon’s hyped Prime Day (July 15)
Amazon rarely hypes things like this, so it is possible we will get some good deals during their upcoming Prime Day on Wednesday July 15 in 2015. We won’t know until things start rolling out at 3am ET on Wednesday. Who knows, perhaps they are doing this as a giant stress test – to see how “elastic” their cloud is? 🙂 Regardless, here are some tips that could potentially help you prepare for the excitement/disappointment of July 15:
- Only Prime members can participate. If you are not a Prime member, you can start a 30-day Free Prime Trial and join the party. To be on the safe side, don’t wait until the last minute to sign up. A high percentage of people stay on after a free trial, so Amazon appears to be happy to heavily encourage people to sign up for a free trial
(ENDED) Ends Fri 1pm ET: Rokinon 14mm f2.8 Nikon chipped for $296

Imported Nikon D750 body only for $1500
The full frame imported grey market party continues at the eBay Deals, GetItDigital (99.8%) goes to the Nikon side of the aisle offering the imported (grey market) Nikon D750 body only for $1500 with free shipping, with a limit of five per buyer and a one year warranty from GetItDigital (not Nikon USA). Over 930 units sold so far from this listing.
At authorized dealers, this goes for $2000, with a variety of free accessories and 2% rewards (=$40~) offered by Adorama and B&H Photo. Free accessories but no 2% rewards at Amazon by Amazon where it is eligible for optional 0% APR 12-month financing or 5% Prime statement credit (these offers with the Amazon Store credit card, I believe they are mutually exclusive, either 0% APR or 5% but not both – unless they changed something recently).

Speaking of eBay Deals, another one over there has the unlocked Fire Phone (no contract, this is an AT&T unlocked by seller) for $140. I don’t know if this gets one year of free Prime (like they do on Amazon), so assume it does not to be on the safe side.
4TB WD Elements External Hard Drive (USB3) for $110
More action at the eBay Deals, the hard drive specials continue, this time it is Newegg’s eBay store offering the new condition 4TB WD Elements External Hard Drive (USB 3.0, 3.5″, model WDBWLG0040HBK-NES, Black) for $110 with free shipping with a limit of five per customer.
Imported Canon 7D II body only for $1200
Back to the land of always winter, aka eBay Deals, where we find another import (grey market) trade-off. eBay seller “GetItDigital” (99.8%) is offering the new condition imported grey market Canon 7D II body only for $1200 with free shipping and a one year warranty from GetItDigital, not from Canon USA. Limit five per customer with over 700 units sold from this eBay listing.
In comparison, at authorized Canon dealers, this goes for $1500 such as Adorama and B&H Photo which offer a few free accessories each along with 2% promotional rewards (= $30~). Amazon itself is stingy on the bundles but it offers 0% 12-month financing with their Store credit card and potentially 5% rewards for Prime members who apply and get approved for the Prime version of their Store card (5% = $75 in statement credit). As usual with credit offers, read terms and conditions carefully, ask them questions if something is not clear, and do some financial planning to make sure such offers will have a net benefit to you in the long run.
