April 17-23: 50% off Canon Photo Paper (Staples B&M)

For the week of April 17 to 23 in 2016, at Staples brick and mortar stores, they will have a 50% off sale on all the Canon photo paper they carry in the store. No coupon is needed, the prices will be adjusted by their system automatically. Price check these since 50% off may or may not be a good deal depending on the paper. At the same time they will also have a promotion that gets you 25% back in Staples Rewards (if you are a Rewards member), so the combination (assuming photo paper is eligible), could make it a good deal. The promotion is limit two per customer but you can visit the stores multiple times. Keep that wig and fake mustache handy 😉

Imported grey-market Fuji X100T with 1-year seller warranty for $800

The Fuji X100T BSP (Big Sensor Prime) goes for $1300 at authorized dealers who are allowed to offer some bonus items with it (eg free Rode Mic at Adorama or 4% rewards and 32GB SDHC at B&H Photo).

But if you are more of a risk taker and imported grey-market items do not give you nightmares on Warranty Street, then among the latest eBay Deals we find a new condition imported grey-market Fuji X100T with a 1-year seller warranty (not Fuji USA warranty) going for $800 with free shipping in either black or silver. The seller is Electronics Valley (99.5%) and it ships from New Jersey.

As usual with these type of situations, it is up to you to decide what’s right for you and how much risk and adventure you are willing to invite. We blog, you decide!

Speaking of eBay, they have a semi-curated refurbished camera gear sale with 60+ items included.
