B&H Photo Photo Plus Specials (some need promo code)
The B&H Photo website is accepting orders again, and they have unleashed their first wave of Photo Plus Specials. Some of them require the use of promo code PPEBH16 – those that do, they mention it on the pages over there. More on these later tonight. NOTE that these orders will ship October 26+, not right away.
In other updates, the Fuji X-T2 remains out of stock as you can see at the just updated Stock Status Tracker. Those of you who were able to buy it from B&H during the holidays, you will have your orders shipped October 26+.

Olympus is having a 10% off coupon sale on their Olympus-branded Fan Gear (hats, t-shirts, cups, etc). Use coupon code GEAR10 until the end of day on 10/23/16. The coupon only works on fan gear, not on cameras/lenses/accessories.
YMMV 10% eBay Bucks on items priced $50+ [must opt-in first]
If you are an eBay Bucks rewards member, check your emails/messages for a potential new bonus bucks offer. This may be targeted, so I have no way of knowing how many people get it. You must manually activate the offer via the email/message before you earn the bonus. The bonus is 10% eBay Bucks on items individually priced $50 or more. The usual rewards percentage is 2%. The usual terms and exclusions apply. Offer ends Thursday 10/20/16 at 11:59pm pacific time…
A good place to look for ideas are the eBay Deals along with the Trending Deals (shows only 100 trending deals, less overwhelming to look at than their main deals page). There’s also a dedicated search box there that searches only the Deals, not everything else on eBay.
Wednesday: Sony RX100 III and $50 Gift Card for $750
The Sony RX100 III currently goes for $750 at authorized Sony dealers, but as one of the daily deals at the Best Buy website you can get it bundled with a $50 Best Buy gift card…
If you don’t want to deal with Best Buy, it is available in open-box condition for $679 + shipping at B&H Photo, however, Best Buy may have it in open-box condition for $600. Click on the open box link at the Best Buy page to check availability. No gift card for the open-box.

(ENDED) Tuesday (T-Mobile Customers only): Free 10 4×6 Printicular/Walgreens prints

20% off Art DRM-Free eBooks with coupon
O’Reilly is not the only online e-book store that offers DRM-free books. eBooks.com is also DRM-Free, and for October 2016, coupon code categorysalecp (that’s the coupon name) gets you 20% off on Art eBooks (along with Business, Law, Literary Criticism, and Performing Arts categories). Some photography ebooks are under Art, but I have no way of knowing exactly what percentage. This depends on how the ebooks are coded in their system. For example, a Canon 7D camera guide won’t be under Art, but something approaching photography from an art angle will likely be so. Their ebooks are available as EPUBs or PDFs, and can also be read online using a web browser

Semi In-Stock Alert: Fuji X-T2 body only for $1600
We have just updated the Stock Status Tracker and we have some semi-good news, the Fuji X-T2 body only is semi in-stock. Let me explain. The camera shows as in-stock at the B&H Photo website but because they are closed for religious holidays, it will ship October 26 in 2016.
