Nikon Lens Instant Savings with FREE Filter Kit and Corel Imaging Software

The Nikon Lens Instant Savings promotion has also gone live at Adorama where many (but not all) of the participating lenses get a variety of free items, including filter kits and the Corel software bundle (that includes AfterShot Pro 2 and Paintshop Pro). The free items are included automatically by Adorama while this promotion is running. The promotion ends 4/2/16.

You can find all the eligible lenses nicely organized over at the Adorama page. The navigation bar at the top over there can take you to the lens category of interest (wide, standard, telephoto, TC, etc). Among the lenses that get the free accessories and software bundles are the 24-70/2.8G, 18-35/3.5-4.5G, 14-24/2.8G, 16-35 f4G VR II, 10-24 DX, 50/1.4G, 58/1.8G and many of the other Primes, 70-200/4G, etc.

Buy 2 Get 1 FREE on Duracell Batteries (Single Use, Rechargeables)

The Weekly Ad for the Office Depot (including Office Max) stores for the week of Sunday 3/6/16 until the end of day on Saturday 3/12/16 includes a “Buy 2 Get 1 FREE” promotion on all Duracell batteries available in-store. This includes single-use batteries, rechargeable batteries, and charger kits. Here’s the screenshot from their Weekly Ad:

I don’t know if the sale will also be live on their website, but if it is, the promotion should appear at some point on Sunday on Duracell Product listings.

As usual, price check any items of interest, as the B2G1 price may still not “defeat” sale prices at other retailers or other times. This is a straight up sale, no coupons, no rebates, no rewards. You just pay the sale price and you are done!

Refurbished Nikon Coolpix L32 (AA powered) for $49 w/free S&H

More eBay action, this time on the manufacturer refurbished front. Once upon a time AA-powered batteries were the majority, but that’s no longer the case. However, companies still make AA-powered cameras, and one such is the subject of this. It is the red manufacturer refurbished Nikon Coolipx L32 compact P&S digital camera (powered by two AAs) offered for $49 with free shipping by BuyDig’s eBay Store with a 90 day Nikon USA warranty. Limit five per customer.

PS: depending on your screen’s colors and calibration and brightness setting, a giant blinding red camera body may fill your screen when you go over there 🙂

Imported No-Warranty Canon 18-135mm IS STM for $229

Back to the eBay Deals, for the more adventurous shoppers, there is a white-box imported grey-market lens without any warranty, it is offered by Get It Digital’s eBay store (99.6%). Ooops, the lens, the lens is the new condition Canon 18-135mm f3.5-5.6 IS STM going for $229 with free shipping with a limit of five per customer.

White box usually means it was part of a kit, but sold separately. If I put on my Miss Maple hat, this is probably how it came to be: they import Canon APS-C DSLRs with 18-135mm kits. Then they remove the lenses from the DSLR boxes, and sell the DSLRs as body-onlies on their own (“onlies” is plural of “only”), and the Lenses on their own.

So that’s why the price is so much lower, it’s an imported item without a warranty. Over 1300 units got sold so far, so there are a lot of people willing to take the risk, but again, don’t decide based on price alone. If the thought of potential future problems with lenses without warranty keeps you up at night, mayhaps it’s not worth the extra stress. We blog, you decide!

eBay Semi-Curated Canon Sale (133 items)

eBay is having another semi-curated sale (I don’t know how much they pick by hand and how much by computer, so I’m splitting the distance with the semi), this time they feature 133 items that comprised a Canon Sales Event. Due to time constraints I cannot go through the 133 items and price-check them, so this is a DIY adventure if interested. You can filter them a bit using the various options below the big banner picture over there.

Canon D-Rebel T5i with 18-55 IS STM and Pixma PRO 100 and 50pk 13×19″ paper for $400 after $350 MIR (prepaid AMEX GC)

Also bubbling among the featured eBay Deals is a more complicated offer from BuyDig’s eBay store. This one is a Canon-Pixma-MIR-AMEX offer, a mail-in rebate bundle with a $350 prepaid American Express Gift Card. This is a Canon D-Rebel T5i with 18-55 IS STM bundle that also includes the PIXMA PRO 100 printer and its accompanying 50pk of 13×19″ Canon photo paper (the razor/cartridges strategy). You pay $750, receive the order, make sure all is well, submit the mail-in rebates following instructions and deadlines, and a few weeks later you receive a $350 prepaid American Express Gift Card if all is well, making it a $400 after MIR promotion, and this a nominee for a runaway sentence 🙂
