Used Fuji X100F Black for $986

The new condition Fuji X100F big sensor prime continues to go for $1300 in new condition at authorized Fuji USA dealers. Even the freebies that are included, when they are included, are very basic. That strong is the new condition price. But while updating the Stock Status Tracker we noticed a breakthrough for the used prices of the black color scheme, they are under $1000 at two reputable photo dealers:

+ USED “Very Good” condition by MPEX via Amazon for $986
+ MPEX is Midwest Photo Exchange, ships directly from Ohio, not Prime eligible

+ USED Condition 8+ at B&H Photo for $1000

But that’s not all, under the “Special offers and product promotions” there is a combined purchase discount, add this to the shopping cart together with the YI Battery and get the battery for free. Both must be sold by YI with the order fulfilled by Amazon for this to become a freebie at the top right corner of the Amazon checkout page.

Monoprice is having a sale on 22 Desktop Computer Monitors, with prices ranging from $150 to $250, ranging from 24″ to 32″ in size, with the majority of them at 27″ and 28″. These are all Monoprice house brand computer monitors.

Running for Sunday only, coupon code STRING gets you 15% off eligible products at the Monoprice website. No minimum purchase required to use the coupon. I haven’t checked the 22 computer monitors above with the coupon. Typically (but not always) sale items are not eligible for coupon discounts, but it happens enough times if you are interested in buying a particular item, it doesn’t hurt to try the coupon.

1-Day Adorama Lighting Sale (22 options)

Adorama is now running a 1-Day Lighting Sale featuring 22 products of lighting interest, featuring their house brand, including Flashpoint, along with some Glow softboxes and reflectors and Orlit monolights (and a on-camera flash too).

Sunday: refurb GoPRO Hero 4 Session for $105

The Woot Deal of the Day running until Sunday at 1am ET (or earlier if sold out) is the refurbished GoPRO Hero 4 Session for $100 with a 90-day Woot warranty. Limit up to three per customer. Shipping is the usual $5 flat for the whole calendar day in the Central time zone.

The Electronics daily deal is various Motorola unlocked phones, while the Computers daily deal is a Dell 2-in-1.

Google Pixelbook + $50 Gift Card + 6 months of Netflix for $899

The early bird catches the Pixelbook! The new condition Google Pixelbook (i5, 8GB, 128GB) is on sale for $899 (instead of starting price of $999) at Amazon by Amazon itself with up to three per customer at the sale price. But that’s not all, you also get a FREE $50 Amazon Gift Card. Simply add both the Pixelbook and the $50 gift card to the shopping cart and proceed to checkout. While this offer is running, the price of the gift card will be automatically deducted by the shopping cart.

This only applies to the Pixelbooks sold and shipped by Amazon itself – as it is often the case with these type of promotions. You can find the offer mentioned under the “Special offers and product promotions” part of the product page.

The bundle with the Pixelbook Pen is also discounted by $100 but does not get the $50 Amazon gift card. But fear not, you can buy the Pixelbook Pen on its own for $99, which is the difference between the two bundles anyway.

256GB PIXELBOOK
UPDATE: this dropped to $1100…

The 256GB Pixelbook is discounted too, from $1200 to $1100 [WAS $1120] and it is also eligible for the FREE $50 Amazon Gift Card. The bundle with the Pixelbook Pen goes for $99 more and does not get the free gift card, so if interested you can buy the Pixelbook Pen on its own for $99…

PRIME STUDENTS
IF you are a PRIME STUDENT, they have a promotion that gets you 10% off. I don’t have a Prime Student account, so I can’t test it.

AFTER YOU RECEIVE THE LAPTOP

The above are what Amazon gives you. After you receive the laptop and activate it, and BEFORE 12/31/17, you can get the FREE Chromebook Offers. The Pixelbook is eligible for:

+ 6 months of Netflix (a $66~ store credit)
+ two years of additional 100GB Google Drive
+ $60 game currency for the Asphalt 8 game

ALTERNATIVES

This is currently sold-out: For about half the price of the Pixelbook, you can get the Samsung Chromebook PRO which we mentioned a couple of days ago and it continues to be in-stock. The PLUS continues to be out of stock.

IF you prefer Chromebooks from other than these companies, there are a few more that participate in the $50 Gift Card promotion as well…

Adorama Over-Stock sale (8000+ options)

Adorama just launched an Over-Stock Sale featuring over 8000 products. You can use the various options in the left sidebar over there to filter by product category, manufacturer, price range, and such! Unfortunately I am not IBM’s Watson, so I cannot digest 8000+ products in milliseconds, so this is a DIY adventure if interested 🙂

Prime Members Only: Get 20% back when you pay for select products with a Prime VISA or Store Credit Card

This is a HOT deal IF:

  1. you are a Prime member
  2. you have either the Prime Chase VISA credit card or the Prime Store Credit card
  3. you want to pay for your whole eligible purchase with either one of these credit cards
  4. you want to buy one of the items eligible for this promotion

If YES to all of the above, then keep on reading! You can find the terms of the promotion, along with links to the eligible products at the Prime 20% Cashback Offer. You only get 20% back on the amount paid with the credit card, so if you have gift cards and such, you may want to uncheck them in the shopping cart because you won’t get 20% back on the portion of the purchase paid with a gift card or any other payment method.

There is no coupon code to enter. The offer happens automatically in the back end while this promotion is running.

EXAMPLE

Click on the various product categories over there to see eligible products. Or while you are perusing Amazon product pages, eligible products will mention this with tiny font on their page. Here’s a screenshot:

Using the above as an example, you pay $376.99 at checkout. When your credit card statement closes, you will get a 20% statement credit (instead of the usual 5% statement credit). In this case, you will have a $75~ statement credit in your credit card account.

This is a LIMITED TIME OFFER. Amazon does not specify the expiration time, so if you don’t see it on a product page, it means it expired!

This is a limited time offer! You can find details and all the eligible products through the Prime 20% Statement Credit offer page.

The Pentax K70 body only goes for $600, while the K70 with the 18-135mm goes for $850 at B&H Photo and Adorama in either the black or the silver color schemes.

The same prices are available at Amazon by Amazon actual. Of these kits, only the K70 with 18-135mm kits are eligible for the 20% statement credit IF you pay with a Prime credit card. You pay $850 at checkout, and after your credit card statement closes, you receive a $170 statement credit.

If you purchase the K70 body only from Amazon, and pay with a Prime credit card, you will only receive the standard 5% statement credit, not a 20% statement. Only the “K70 with 18-135” kits are eligible.

EXAMPLE

As always, double check that the product you are about to buy is eligible for this promotion by making sure the offer is mentioned on its product page. Take a screenshot as well to be on the same side! Example for the K70 with 18-135 vs the K70 body only:

The K70 with 18-135mm is eligible as you can see

The K70 body only is NOT eligible. The offer is NOT mentioned on its product page

For more details on the 20% statement credit offer, read the introductory post, I don’t want to repeat the whole thing in every post.

This is a limited time offer! You can find details and all the eligible products through the Prime 20% Statement Credit offer page.

Prime Credit Cards Only: Buy Pentax K-1 Body for $1900, Get $380 Statement Credit

The Pentax K-1 body goes for $1900 with a FREE Pentax D-BG6 Battery Grip at B&H Photo and Adorama.

It also goes for $1900 at Amazon by Amazon itself but Amazon does not include the free Battery Grip. HOWEVER, if you are a Prime member, and you pay for this purchase sold and shipped by Amazon, paid with either Prime credit card, you will receive $380 back as a statement credit! I don’t want to repeat the details of this promotion in every post, read the introductory post here.

The battery grip costs $220 on its own, so the statement credit offer handily defeats the free battery grip.

Here’s how the Amazon product page looks when this promotion is alive and kicking:
