New Prime Day 2023 Feature: Buy Products By INVITATION

Prime Days for 2023 are Tue and Wedn July 11 and 12. In previous years, you would buy the offers as they went live on that very day. Now there’s another option: Invitations!

For all this to work, I should point out, you must a Prime member, either a paying one or with a 30-DAY Free Trial.

When you peruse the Amazon USA Gold Box at this very moment, you may see some offers that say “Invite-only” in their name. You can use your browser’s search function to quickly locate these.

As an example of an invite offer we’ll take a look at this Acer Swift X Creator laptop. Its current buy-me-now price is $930. BUT if you are a Prime member, you can request an invite, and IF selected (not sure exactly how, random? algorithmically? by Jeff himself? LOL), on PRIME DAY (not right now) you will have the option to purchase it at the Prime Day price of $630.

For completeness sake, let’s take a look at some of the specs of this $630 laptop: 100% sRGB, NVIDIA RTX 3050 Ti (4GB GDDR6 VRAM), Ryzen 7 5825U (Zen 3), 16GB LPDDR4X, 512GB SSD, backlit keyboard, 14-inch full HD IPS (16:9, 300 nits), 802.11ax Wi-Fi, bluetooth 5.2, weighs 3.06 lbs, fingerprint reader, Win 11, etc, etc, etc…

Requesting an invite is just that. You are not obligated to purchase it!

For products participating in this, on the right-hand side of their individual product page, where the classic Amazon “Buy Box” is, you see this new “Invitation” area:

In case the above product disappears, here’s a few more participating, so you can check and play with the new options.

+ FOREO Luna 3, I believe this product allows you to talk to the Lunar Base on the dark side of the Moon!

+ Darth Vader head (Echo stand) for $30
+ also available in StormTrooper and Mandalorian

LAST CALL: B&H Mega Deal Zone ends Thursday at 11:59pm ET

We have a LAST CALL alert! The B&H Photo MEGA deal ZONE ends on Thursday 6/22/23 at 11:59pm ET, about the same time as the 2023 NBA Draft! As of the time of writing there are 1495 products available, which means net five of them sold out since our last post.

For some ideas on which products to mayhaps consider considering, mayhaps check our previous Mega Deal Zone Marathon Of Posts. Yes, of course there’s a “Bag the Bags” installment!

B&H Mega Deal Zone: 77 Lens options participating

I accidentally started a B&H Photo Mega Deal Zone Marathon of Posts. I couldn’t possibly do this without a specific lens-centric post!

As of the time of writing there are 58 lenses participating including:

+ Sigma 12-24mm f4 DG HSM Art for $849
+ IRIX primes, including the 150mm f2.8 Macro 1:1 for $430 in Pentax K, Nikon F, Canon EF
+ lots and lots of Lensbabies
+ insert never-ending debate [whether they are “real” lenses or not] here

BUT WAIT, there’s more! There are 19 lenses in the Video Lenses category, from Sirui and Viltrox, many of them anamorphic.

PS: in the search-listings, each individual lens option counts as one. For example, if an imaginary 50mm 1.8 lens is available in six mounts, it will show up as six listings in the search results.
