If you like previous generation tech products or refurbished or in new-other condition, backed by a seller warranty, clearance specialist Tech Rabbit is running their Cyber Monday doorbusters as well. Every time on their website gets free shipping, even those selling for $3! No coupons needed, the price you see is the price you pay.

NewEgg launches Cyber Monday Promo Codes sale

NewEGG is back with another CyberMonday Promo Codes sale. Some of the offers require the use of promo codes which you get from the NewEgg email newsletters. If you see something you like, you can sign up on the spot and use the promo codes using the box at the very top of their sale page.

Monday: Woot Sellout/Holidays Woot-OFF

Woot is celebrating Cyber Monday with a Holiday/Sellout Woot-OFF running until Tuesday at 1am ET. Anything and everything goes in the Sellout Woot, including camera gear. Woot Sellout often gets renamed during Holidays or special events. Shipping is a $5 flat fee for any purchases made during the whole Black Cyber Friday-Monday time period. As usual, I have no clue what’s coming up at the Woot OFFs, so it’s like a box of chocolates 🙂

(ENDED) Get 5% KEH bonus when you Sell Your Own Gear

This 24-hour promotion expired…

Cyber Monday is over and KEH is having a Sell Your Own Gear Tuesday! Good until Tuesday 11:59pm ET, you can get a 5% bonus when you get a quote to Sell Your Own Gear to KEH Camera using coupon code SYG11A over there. This coupon will not get you a discount if you want to buy used gear. You get the 5% bonus only if you get a quote to sell your own gear to KEH.

Cyber Monday Only: KEH Coupon: $50/$300+ OR $100/$600+ OR $200/$1000+

Cyber Monday is here in the Eastern Time zone and so is the KEH Camera Cyber Monday deal: use coupon code CYBER17A to get a discount depending on your purchase amount:

+ $50 off orders of $300+
+ $100 off orders of $600+
+ $200 off orders of $1000+
+ the same coupon CYBER17A gets you the discount based on the order amount at KEH Camera

Used gear purchases in “BGN” (Bargain) or better condition, made until 12/31/17, get a 365-day KEH warranty instead of the usual 180-day warranty. Items in lower conditions, “AS IS” and “UG (UGLY)” do not get any warranty (for obvious reasons, if something does not work or partially works, what’s the point of a warranty?).

Three Stacksocial Cyber Monday coupons (20% to 40% off)

It’s raining Cyber Monday now! Stacksocial has a trio of coupons for Cyber Monday as follows:

+ coupon CYBER20 for 20% off site-wide
+ coupon CYBER40 for 40% off courses (eg various photography, Adobe, DSLR classes), apps, and software
+ coupon CYBERM255 for $25 off an order of $100+

Use whichever coupon will get you the best discount depending on what you are planning to buy. If you are not sure what category a product fits in, try all the coupons out and see what gets you the best deal 🙂

Dell Cyber Monday Doorbusters start Monday 8am ET

Dell Home’s Cyber Monday Doorbusters will officially start on Monday at 8am eastern over there, but as usual, they already have some “appetizer sales” in progress. The Dropbox $60/$25 promotion continues (at the very bottom of that page).

20% off select Electronics/Camera Gear at AWD

The Cyber Monday festivities also reach the Amazon Warehouse Deals (AWD), Amazon’s used marketplace where both Amazon itself and the various marketplace sellers (from big sellers to individuals) offer used and refurbished and open-box products on sale.

The current of 20% off sales includes some products in “Computers & Accessories” and “Cameras & Accessories” and “LCD Monitors” and “Laptops” and more.

As usual with NewEGG, some of the offers may require the use of promo codes which you can use by signing up to their email newsletters. It’s easier than it sounds, they have details at the top of the page. I am too brain-dead to go through the NewEgg BF sale, so that’s a DIY adventure 🙂

Rakuten Black Friday: 20% off almost everything (max discount $40 off)

Rakuten has a “make your own deal” type of a Black Friday! Coupon code BF20 gets you 20% off almost everything at their website. The usual exclusions apply (cash-equivalent items not eligible, some brands don’t allow coupons, some products cannot be legally discounted, etc). The maximum discount is $40 using the coupon (in order words, purchases over $200 get a flat $40 off discount if my math is right). The coupon expires on Saturday at 3am ET.

eBay launches Black Friday Ads “Meet or Beat” page

eBay is innovating too in the ever-changing world of Black Friday madness. They have now launched a Black Friday Price Matching page where they meet or beat some of the advertised offers from the Black Friday ads. As of the time of writing, there are 88 listings there, a few of them are tech items, but no camera gear. I will monitor it (on a time permitting basis) to see if anything pops up.

Speaking of eBay and price-matching, the official BOSE eBay store has price-matched their own Black Friday offers 🙂

Speaking of eBay, here’s an appetizer doorbuster, the 8GB Transcend Class 10 SD card is offered for $5 with free shipping by PhotoVideo4Less (New York). Limit two per customer.

All the posts are sprawling today, so might as well, while we are talking eBay, the official Google eBAY store has their own Black Friday specials running with free shipping:
+ Google Chromecast for $25
+ Google Chromecast Audio for $25
+ Google Home for $79
+ limit three of each per customer

Black Friday deals at Focus Camera

B&H Black Friday Specials (119 options)

B&H Photo has launched their 2017 Black Friday Specials page with 119 different items listed. You can filter them by manufacturer or other factors. I will “digest” these later on Thursday. 119 is a lot to digest late at night while spaced out 🙂

20% off select Electronics at Amazon Warehouse Deals

If you feel like doing the digital equivalent of sifting through a giant bargain bin, Amazon Warehouse Deals has an additional 20% off discount on a number of electronics (including camera gear) offered on their website. Only a subset of the items are eligible.

No coupon is needed. The price will drop in the shopping cart. Eligible items have a 20% off next to their price/listing on the individual price pages. Only items sold and shipped by Amazon Warehouse Deals itself are eligible. Screenshot below:

BorrowLenses: 20% off with coupon and FREE Thanksgiving and Black Friday

NewEgg launches Black Friday Sale (3400+ options)

NewEgg has launched their Black Friday with over 3400 items participating. This started at 4pm ET.

You can make the deals even better when you take advantage of the Masterpass promotion. Pay with Masterpass for orders of $200+ and use coupon code MPBF17 to get $25 off the $200+ total. Details at the aforelinked page. The Masterpass coupon expires 11/22/17 at 11:59pm pacific time. Masterpass is the Mastercard parallel to VISA Checkout.

UPDAT 5:15pm ET: it looks like there is little and less in terms of digital camera offers at their sale. I suppose it shouldn’t be a surprise, NewEgg is a general tech website, and they move with the trends and hype of the tech world.

PayPal coupon: $15 off $75+ order at Monoprice

PayPal sent by email a new coupon offer to their customers and this time the coupon code looks like it is general use, but I don’t know if anyone can use it or only those who received it. Coupon code PAYPAL2017 gets you $15 off a purchase of $75+ at the Monoprice website IF you pay for your order with PayPal (not other payment options). The coupon expires 11/22/17. Exclusions apply.

Speaking of Monoprice, for Monday 10/20/17, coupon code MARVEL gets you 20% off orders of $300+.

KEH offers 365-day warranty on USED purchases made by 12/31/17

This is huge for used camera gear purchases. For used camera gear purchases made until 12/31/17, KEH Camera is offering a 365 Day Warranty instead of their usual 180 Day Warranty. The details are at the aforelinked page. Items that are covered by this range from “BGN” (Bargain condition) all the way up to “LN” (Like New). Items below “BGN” such as “AS IS” are not eligible for the warranty as usual. No coupon is needed for this offer, it happens automatically on purchases made until 12/31/17.

This brings their current limited time used coupon to new light: running until Saturday 4pm ET, coupon code PBF17A gets you 15% off most used camera gear and 25% off 700+ featured used camera gear at the KEH Camera Pre BF sale. Coupon only works on used camera gear.

Given that most cameras come with a 1-year manufacturer warranty anyway, you are getting the same duration as KEH, and some, depending on their experience dealing with manufacturer warranties (just read some of the Samsung never-ending warranty stories), would argue that they’ll get better warranty service from KEH than the manufacturer.
