2TB Western Digital Elements HDD (USB 3.0) for $66

The action continues at the eBay Deals with more storage for your RAW-mega-pixels. With 1TB HDDs having a market price $50 or less “buy it now” price, the 2TB models seem to be settling at a $70 or less market price. As such, Adorama’s eBay store is offering the new condition 2TB WD Elements Portable External Hard Drive (USB 3.0, USB powered) for $66 with free shipping, with a limit of five per customer.

PS: there’s also some grey-market/imported dSLRs from some of the B-list eBay Deals sellers. I’m trying to triangulate what to do with those type of deals. People are buying them per the eBay product listing statistics, but how many of the people who buy them are aware of the warranty trade-offs and risks?

Tuesday: 15% off at Monoprice site-wide with coupon

If you are a fan of Monoprice products (be it accessories or their ever-increasing “real products” including computer monitors and such), coupon code OCT15 gets you 15% off at the Monoprice website. This applies to Monoprice-branded products, which is the vast majority of what they carry.

Featured items are shown on that page, or you can use the search box or navigate to the various camera and photo related categories.

Coupon is good for Tuesday October 27 (2015) only, in the pacific time zone since Monoprice is Southern California based but they also have a new warehouse facility in Kentucky to help with faster deliveries to the East Coast. The usual coupon restrictions apply (not good on Tamron lenses, not good for their 3D printer, and not for manufacturers that prohibit retailers from coupon discounting, etc).

Their website is redesigned again, so some parts may look different since the last time you may have visited. Some zipcodes may qualify for $7 Next Business Day flat-rate delivery, but not all of them (I can’t try hundreds of zipcodes). Nevertheless, having a shipping fee moving target is kinda frustrating to a shopper. The internets have shown that they prefer a predictable shipping fee, preferably free for all (eg the eBay Daily Deals), but if not, a fixed threshold (eg Amazon, Target, Best Buy, Groupon, etc) so you can plan ahead and such.

The Sony NEX-FS100U Super 35mm video camera body only (takes E-mount lenses) is now down to $1600 with free expedited shipping at Adorama.

While on the topic of video, also at Adorama, in-stock and ready to ship it is (obligatory Yoda-ish which I’m sure will be overly-done world-wide in the next few months) the Panasonic AG-DVX200 Camcorder for $4200. This has a 13x Leica optical zoom fixed lens.

In-stock now: AmazonBasics GoPro Tripod Mount for $6.50

The AmazonBasics brand continues to expand with even more items. Now in-stock and shipping for GoPro users is the AmazonBasics GoPro Tripod Mount going for $6.50 with a limit of 30 per customer. Unfortunately it is part of the Add-On program, so regardless of Prime-membership, you need to place a $25+ order, otherwise the shopping cart will Mutombo (v) any attempts at completing the purchase.

But there are some easy ways to get to $25+ (Prime order threshold) or $35+ (free S&H for non-Prime), including this 200x (slower) 32GB Lexar SDHC w/Memory Card Wallet for $10 or some discounted camera bags (page down to the “Camera Bag Survivors” segment and look for Amazon as the seller or shipper). [I need to do another “Add-On” round-up since the previous one got stale – since items come and go and prices and Add-On status changes, sometimes often]

Various Blog Updates grouped together

This post rounds up a number of blog-related updates, to keep you abreast of what’s going on. Here we geaux:

+ a new Camera Price Charts feature will begin shortly (the last time we did this was December 2014)
+ already updated the Trade Show Calendar with the 2016 trade shows (a couple more dropped out or merged)

+ an easy to find and easy to use “Shop and Support” feature is coming soon. This was (to my surprise perhaps) requested by multiple people since it went away during one of the previous blog template incarnations/remodelings (more on that later)

+ you may have already seen an increase in blog-post productivity (more posts and some longer posts) thanks to the new blog-computer. Previously, the old computer couldn’t keep up with me, and it made posting rather frustrating at times. Now I can’t keep up with the new computer – which makes me feel old(er). You can’t win 🙂

+ as we are really now orbiting Planet Black Friday, if there are any items or product categories you are interested in, please let me know (so I can keep an extra eye on them) using the online contact form or leave a comment or twitterize

32GB Lexar SDHC 200x Class 10 + Polaroid Memory Card Wallet for $10

If you don’t need a blazing fast SDHC card and you could use a memory card wallet, there’s a pretty good bundle going on. The 32GB Lexar 200X Premium Series SDHC UHS-1 Class 10 memory card is bundled with a Polaroid memory card wallet (judging by the pictures it holds three memory cards) for $10. The seller is Ritz Camera with the order fulfilled by Amazon.com, so if you are a Prime member, you get free 2-day shipping even if you buy just one card. Non-Prime members get the usual free super-saver-shipping with a $35+ order. Limit 30 per customer.

This shares the same reviews pool with another bundle, but when you filter it for this only, it looks like it has all 22 of the 22 reviews, which average 4.8 out of 5.
