Refurbished Nikon D3300 w/18-55 & 55-200 (both VR) for $450

Don’t refurbish me bro! (okay, I am not sure where I am going with this joke attempt, so I am going to pretend I didn’t write it). Back to the eBay Deals, Beach Camera’s ebay store is offering the manufacturer refurbished Nikon D3300 with 18-55 and 55-200 (both VR) for $450 with free shipping, and a 90 day Nikon warranty, with a limit of five per customer.

PS: the 55-200 is VR. There’s only one spot in a sub-heading that mentions 55-200 without VR (they probably ran out of space) but all the other mentions have VR. Also, the part number (Nikon part number 2166) is that of the 55-200 VR.

Refurbished Canon SL1 w/18-55 for $350

Back to the eBay Deals the manufacturer refurbished black Canon SL1 w/18-55 STM is offered for $350 with free shipping with a limit of five per customer by eBay seller “northwest-outdoor” (98.9%). This is described as “Canon Authorized Refurbished Product w/ 90 Day Warranty”.

On the other hand, if you don’t object to mail-in rebates, Adorama has a nice $550 after $250 MIR bundle that gets you the new condition SL1 with three lenses and the Pixma Pro 100 printer and a few extras.

The A-mount Hasselblad HV DSLR Camera with 24-70mm Lens is currently on sale for $4000 at B&H Photo. Needless to say, the Sony-branded A-mount cameras go for much lower prices, but some may prefer a Hasselblad instead of a Rolex 🙂

32GB SanDisk Ultra Fit USB 3.0 Flash Drive for $13.40

AMEX Offers (YMMV): Spend $250+ at Unique Photo, Get $50 back as statement credit

If you are an American Express credit card member, check the AMEX Offers of your account the next time you login over there. One of the offers floating is an automatic $50 statement credit if you make an online purchase at UniquePhoto.com or in-store (they have a store in Fairfield, NJ) of $250 or more. You have to manually opt-in for the offer by simply clicking the “Add to Card” button over there. You have to pay with the American Express card that you accepted the offer for (in case you have multiple cards linked to the same AMEX online account – make sure you pay with the one that accepted the offer!). There’s no coupon to enter.

amex_offers_unique_photo

The offer may not appear in everyone’s AMEX account, so there is a YMMV element to this. A new trend among credit card companies is to offer more targeted offers to customers based on a number of criteria (purchase history (eg similar or competing purchases) may be a factor, but I’m only guessing).

The good thing with AMEX Offers is that they send you a confirmation email once an eligible transaction that fulfilled an offer has been completed, so you do not twist in the wind wondering whether it worked or not.

The offer can be used once during this promotion period which ends 8/12/15. Full terms and conditions can be found over there when you click the “View Details” link.
