Welcome to the Camera Dome :)
It looks like Amazon has price-matched the B&H offer. As of the time of writing, you can get the new condition Tamron 12-28mm f4 PRO APS-C lens in the Canon mount for $199 with free shipping, sold and shipped by Amazon itself. Maximum three lenses per customer.
It is currently in “temporarily out of stock” status, so shipping date is up in the air, but you can lock the $199 price if you like it.
The new condition Tamron 24-70mm f/2.8 Di VC USD lens bundled with some free accessories goes for $1100 at authorized dealers such as Adorama. But if you want to save a lot and you are comfortable with imported grey-market, then…
… to the eBay Deals we go where eBay seller “QuickNDone” (99.9%) is offering the lens in new condition imported grey-market for $690 with free shipping in the Canon mount or the Nikon mount.
Limit five per mount per customer. Between them they sold over 800 units.
Warranty-wise, if you are buying in Canada, you get a 6-year Tamron Canada warranty. If you are buying elsewhere, you get the 1-year Tamron International warranty. So it’s a lot shorter than the Tamron USA warranty. That’s one of the reasons why the price is lower. They are a Canadian seller but the eBay listing says they ship from various locations in the USA.

The updating of the Stock Status Tracker has new developments on the Nikon D7500 APS-C DSLR front as well:

An update of the Stock Status Tracker is in-progress, and we have new lower prices for imported grey-market Canon 6D II Body Only kits since the last time we checked. The new condition authorized dealer price is $2000, but if you are comfortable with imported with a 1-year seller warranty:
+ 6ave on eBay (IMP) for $1715 with free shipping
+ Deals All Year on eBay (IMP) for $1730 with free shipping

The same price with 4% promotional rewards but no free Hoya filter at Adorama. The same price but no freebies thru Amazon (but you can get 5% statement credit as a Prime member paying with official Amazon credit cards).
A rare medium format DSLR discount! The Pentax 645Z body only medium format DSLR camera is now down to $5497 at authorized dealers including B&H Photo and Adorama and various thru Amazon.
B&H and Adorama offer 4% promotional rewards, which is about $220 to be used in future purchases at B&H or Adorama. Amazon does not have promotional rewards, but if you are a Prime member and pay with either one of the official Amazon credit cards, you get 5% back as a statement credit.
If you prefer the Nikon D800 body only over the Nikon D800E, Adorama has options for you too!
If you are comfortable with heavily used but still functioning DSLRs, KEH Camera is offering the Nikon D800 body only in “BGN” (Bargain) condition for $1079 plus shipping with a 180-day warranty.
The USED prices at Adorama start at $1200 in “Used – Very Good” condition and increase as the condition increases. Check the “What’s in The Box”s section of each individual listing to see what’s included and other details about that particular listing.
USED items sold by Adorama come with a 90-day Adorama warranty.
On the other hand, if you prefer manufacturer refurbished DSLRs with a 90-day Nikon USA warranty, Adorama is offering them in manufacturer refurbished condition for $1700 with free shipping.
Nikon has a lot of 35mm full frame DSLRs these days, more so in their D8XX-series. Coming out in a few days/weeks is the D850 for $3300 [see Stock Status Tracker], coinciding with the anniversary festivities.
If you want a Nikon D8XX DSLR but want a much lower price, the Nikon D800E is available in USED Condition at Adorama for $1400 plus shipping in “Excellent Minus (E-)” condition with a 90-day warranty from Adorama. Better conditions go for more. These are used, not manufacturer refurbished.
But if you prefer them in officially blessed manufacturer refurbished condition with a 90-day Nikon USA warranty, Adorama is offering them for $2050.
If you are looking for a “Take Pictures With” entry-point into the Nikon DSLR system, Adorama has a couple of offers on manufacturer Nikon D3400 DSLR kits with a 90-day Nikon USA warranty as follows:
The manufacturer refurbished Nikon D3400 with 18-55 DX VR in the black color scheme goes for $360 with free shipping.
Or if you want to also get the 70-300mm DX non-VR lens, then you can get the D3400 two lens kit (18-55, 70-300) for $425 with free shipping in the Black Color Scheme or the Red Color Scheme. So $65 more adds the 70-300 DX non-VR lens to your purchase.
In new condition at authorized Nikon dealers, the D3400 with 18-55 kit goes for $500, and the two lens kit goes for $600 with extras, eg B&H Photo.
The Nikon D7200 body only is no longer “the latest generation”. The Nikon D7500 is the latest APS-C model going for $1250 as body only [see Stock Status Tracker].
The Nikon D7200 body only, in new condition, at authorized dealers, it goes for $1000 with some free accessories, such as Adorama and various at Amazon.
If you are gonna get the previous generation, you might as well pay less by going the manufacturer refurbished route and that’s where Adorama comes in, offering the D7200 body only in manufacturer refurbished condition with a 90-day Nikon USA warranty for $710 with free shipping. That’s almost $300 less than new condition.
Optionally, under the yellow “Special Offer” section, you can add to the camera with a combined purchase discount promotion the 1-Year Adobe Creative Cloud Photography Plan for +$100, instead of its regular price of +$120.
Speaking of Adorama, here is the latest situation in their Nikon manufacturer refurbished gear:
A proper superzoom lens sale! The new condition Tamron AF18-270mm f/3.5-6.3 Di II VC PZD lens is on sale for $329 with free expedited shipping in the Canon and Nikon DSLR systems at B&H Photo. VC here meaning Vibration Correction which is Tamron-speak for image stabilization.
This lens is also on sale in the Sony A-mount, however this one is without VC since Sony camera bodies support sensor-shift image stabilization. Check your local photo forums for never-ending debates on the merits of the various image stabilization systems 🙂
As of 9/28/17 9:12am ET recheck, this sale continues… This sale ends on 9/27/17 at 11:59pm ET (or earlier if any of them sell out).
The Dream of the 90s is alive, not just in Portland, but also in stabilized tele-macro lenses! The new condition Sigma 105mm F2.8 EX DG OS HSM MACRO lens is on sale for $569 with 4% promotional rewards (around $23~ to be spent in future purchases) at B&H Photo in the Canon, Nikon and Sigma SLR systems.
If you prefer free lens-y accessories instead of 4% promotional rewards, Adorama is offering instead a Tiffen 62mm Filter Kit, lens cap tether and cleaning kit.

Lots of refurbished Canons are participating in the Pumpkin Spice Mocha sale sale at the Canon outlet store.
We previously mentioned the refurb 80D with 18-55 for $779. For a similar ballpark price, you can trade-off an older body with a better lens, it’s the manufacturer refurbished Canon 70D with 18-135mm with a 1-year Canon USA warranty for $800 with free shipping.
This kit is almost gone from authorized/reputable dealers, but its price defeats the used price of $912 at B&H Photo in “Condition 9” with only a 90-day B&H Used warranty.
And now a sale on a new entrant in the world of DSLR lenses, the Irix 11mm f4 lens is on sale for $550 in the Firefly configuration (Joss Wheadon not included) and $725 in the Blackstone configuration at B&H Photo in the Canon, Nikon and Pentax K systems. Yes, Pentax fans lucked out this time, they made a K-lens as well as CaNikon!
This is a limited time sale. Expiration date unknown. For more action, check the B&H Featured sales.
Back to the Canon Pumpkin Spice sales we go, where, despite the goofy name for their sale, all these come with a 1-year Canon USA warranty and very competitive prices on some items compared to buying them new condition at authorized dealers.
The Canon 80D with the 18-55mm lens currently goes for $1250 at authorized dealers such as Adorama.
But if you buy manufacturer refurbished with a 1-year warranty from the Canon USA Outlet store, you can get the Canon 80D with 18-55mm kit for $779 with free shipping. That’s 38% off the new condition price and you still get the same warranty!
If you don’t want/need the 18-55 kit lens, you can sell, donate, trade, gift or experiment upon the 18-55 lens!
The discount is not as big, but it’s less if you are instead interested in the 80D with 18-135mm kit. It goes for $1500 at authorized dealers versus $1079 at Canon USA Outlet.
If of all the Nikon DSLR options out there it is the manufacturer refurbished Nikon D3200 body only the one you want, you can get it for $250 with free shipping at Adorama with a 90-day Nikon USA warranty.

+ recently added 30+ manufacturer refurbished Nikon options
+ a total of 90+ manufacturer refurbished Nikon items are currently available.
What about some Pumpkin Spice Sales for breakfast?
Let’s round up the lenses. We already mentioned two primes under $100 and the 85mm f1.8 EF for $260, but there are more value options at the Canon Pumpkin store:
As S.W. Anderson pointed out in the comments earlier, if you are looking for a bang for the buck EF-S zoom, the manufacturer refurbished Canon 10-18mm f4.5-5.6 IS STM EF-S is available for $190 with a full 1-year warranty Canon USA warranty… In new condition this goes for $279 with some freebies at authorized dealers such as Adorama.
Also zooming, the manufacturer refurbished Canon EF 17-40 f/4L USM goes for $540 with a 1-year Canon USA warranty. In new condition this lens goes for $749 with freebies at authorized dealers such as Adorama.
These daily deals expired but for more action, check their Featured Sales…
If you are looking for a “take pictures with” Canon DSLR kit without breaking the bank, the Canon USA Outlet store is offering the manufacturer refurbished Canon D-Rebel T6i Two Lens Kit with the 18-55 EF-S IS STM and 55-250 IS STM lenses along with a 1-year Canon USA warranty for $560.
This is a limited time offer, part of their Pumpkin Spice Refurbished Sale.
PS: if they chose that name, they should have been giving everyone who buy a camera or lens a promo code for a free PSL 😉
Going with the theme of the season, the official Canon USA Outlet store has launched a Pumpkin Spice Refurbished Sale (that’s their own name for it, not my goofy joke), and that includes two primes under $100 but still with a 1-year Canon USA warranty:
+ refurbished Canon 50mm f1.8 EF for $80
+ refurbished Canon 24mm f2.8 EF-S for $99.99 (thus my loophole to call it under $100)
The Canon 85mm f1.8 EF lens goes for $350 in new condition at authorized Canon USA that bundle it with some free accessories such as Adorama.
But if you are comfortable with manufacturer refurbished with a 1-year Canon USA warranty, you can get it in this condition for $260 for a limited time at the Canon USA store.
Continuing to dig into the Bargain Bin, as of the time of writing, there is one listing of the Used Nikon 70-300mm f4.5-6.3G ED DX non-VR lens, in “Used – Like New” condition [no further details given] going for $120~ with free shipping by Amazon Warehouse Deals itself.
This lens currently goes for $350 on its own in new condition, but it’s frequently bundled with more recent Nikon DSLR two lens kit, so the $350 price is a bit misleading in terms of its effective street market price.
