You’ve already broken the bank buying the Nikon D850 DSLR! You don’t have to break the bank with a battery grip if you are willing to go 3rd-party instead of buying the official Nikon battery grip. B&H Photo is offering their house brand Vello BG-N19 Battery Grip for Nikon D850 for $100 with free expedited shipping. This is in-stock and shipping as of the time of writing. Unlike most things Nikon D850 🙂

Limit up to three per eBay customer. Over 420 units have been sold so far per the eBay listing. This is in the black color scheme.
Or if you prefer a “take pictures with” entry-point into the Nikon DSLR system for about half that, Adorama is offering the refurbished Nikon D3100 with 18-55 for $229 with free shipping and a 90-day warranty in the red color scheme of the DSLR.

PS: this post is “certified” to be Tokina, not Tamron. Because half of the time I type the wrong name 🙂 Of all the names they could have chosen, did they have to both start with a T, be six letters long, and have four shared letters? 🙂
(ENDED) Nikon D850 User Auction ends 3:32pm ET [$2950 as of OP]
This auction ended for $2950 with 62 bids placed…
A quick look at the Stock Status Tracker reminded us that today is the last day of the user-listed Nikon D850 body only auction. As of the time of writing (aka OP as in Original Post as in 10:26am ET), the price is $2950 with 62 bids. Shipping is an extra $13~.
Another Nikon D850 eBay Auction by User: $2800 but ends Monday
Another development from the update of the Stock Status Tracker is another “sale by user” for the Nikon D850 body only. It is in USED condition and an Auction-style eBay Listing. It is currently going for $2800 with 59 bids. It ships from North Carolina for $13, from a 100% eBay user (91 transactions). The auction ends on Monday at 3:32pm eastern. Mayhaps the Superbowl will distract some and the price won’t skyrocket 🙂
In other stock update action, the Panasonic G9 body only is back in-stock at B&H Photo for its starting price of $1700 with free shipping…
(ENDED) KEH Camera Coupon: 8% off USED Canon and Nikon Gear
This 2-day coupon expired…
Canon and Nikon fans, it’s your time at KEH Camera with a two day coupon running until Sunday 2/4/18 at 11:59pm eastern. Coupon code CANNIK02A gets you 8% off used Canon and Nikon camera gear. As usual, their shopping cart is the ultimate decider on what is eligible. Separately, the KEH Camera website offers free shipping on orders of $49 or more (continental 48 US States).
Imported Nikon D850 Body drops to $3250
The second development from the just-updated Stock Status Tracker is that the new condition imported grey market Nikon D850 body only by eBay seller “Deals All Year” has now dropped to $3250. The new condition at authorized Nikon USA dealers is $3300 (and still hard to find).
IRIX 11mm f4 Firefly for $525; 15mm f2.4 for $575 [C/N/P]
Joss Whedon is not involved with the making of this Firefly! The new condition IRIX 11mm f/4 Firefly Lens is on sale for $525 with free expedited shipping until Wednesday at 11:59pm eastern at B&H Photo in the Canon, Nikon and Pentax K SLR/DSLR systems. These are manual focusing lenses with focus lock. Hooray for Pentax fans as this is a 3rd-party lens that offers a Pentax version before Sony/Sigma 🙂
Meanwhile the IRIX 15mm f/2.4 Blackstone Lens is on sale for $575 with free expedited shipping in the same three mounts at B&H Photo but no expiration date is mentioned on its sale.
(ENDED) Tamron 24-70 f2.8 Di VC USD with FREE 82mm Hoya UV Haze NXT HMC Filter for $799 [C/N]
All these Monday offers expired…
Nikon D7500 w/18-55 & & 70-300 & Extended Warranty & Extras for $1600 (Costco members) or $1680 (non-members)
If you happen to want both the Nikon D7500 APS-C DSLR and the 18-55 DX VR and 70-300 f4.5-6.3G VR AF-P lenses, Costco has them in a bundle for $1600 with free shipping. You also get a 2-year extended warranty on the camera body (not the lenses) along with a 32GB SD card, an extra battery, a Nikon branded gagdet bag and a Nikon online class.
Non-members can buy this online with a 5% surcharge, which in this case is $80 more. Given that an annual Costco membership is $60 (Gold Star individual or Business member), it makes sense to sign up for a membership instead of paying the $80 non-member surcharge. Occasionally they have new member promotions that give you some freebies for your first membership year. Then with a membership you buy a mountain of toilet paper and “tp” all your frenemies 😉
This bundle may also be available at your local Costco store but they don’t have a store look-up option (yet???) on their website.
Nikon D850 Hunt: Two eBay Auction-style Listings in progress
Another thing that surfaced during the Stock Status Update is that there are two live classic bid-style auctions on the Nikon D850 body only running on eBay and as fate would have it, they both end a few hours apart from each other. The listings end next Tuesday though, so the prices will definitely go up by then.
These are sold by individual eBay users, not camera retailers…
+ Auction #1 (eBay) in New-Other condition
+ $1675 with 44 bids as of blog-posting time
+ Auction #2 (eBay) in NEW condition
+ $1852 with 1 bid as of blog-posting time
Imported Nikon D850 Body with 1-Year Seller Warranty for $3280
Another day, another update of the Stock Status Tracker and we have some action on the Nikon D850 body only. The camera is offered in new condition, imported grey-market with a 1-year seller warranty for $2280 with free shipping by eBay seller Deals All Year (99.8%, New Jersey, up to three per customer).
The new condition price at authorized Nikon USA dealers is $3300.
Sigma 135mm f1.8 ART for $1097 (Nikon) or $1140 (Canon)
When the Amazon Price Bots play their game of thrones, you win sometimes because Amazon’s own price drops to match some of the 3rd-party sellers. Such is the case at the moment for the new condition Sigma 135mm f1.8 ART lens. You can get it for $1097 with free shipping in the Nikon F system and $1140 in the Canon EF system. These links point to Amazon’s own listing. Other 3rd-party sellers offer them there for less, but they don’t look like authorized dealers or recognizable names.
Limit three of each per customer. As this is a random Price Bot price-match, the price can change at any point in time. Amazon’s price bots work in mysterious ways 🙂
Refurbished Nikon D750 Body w/90-Day W for $1230
If you don’t have to have the new condition Nikon D750, then you can get a solid discount (without any free accessories) if you go manufacturer refurbished…
… to the eBay Deals we go, where the BuyDIG eBay store is offering the manufacturer refurbished Nikon D750 body only for $1230 with free shipping and a 90-day Nikon USA warranty. Limit up to three per customer at the sale price. Over 800 units have been sold so far from this listing per eBay.

Pre-order new Nikon 180-400 f4E TC1.4 FL ED VR for $12,400
Nikon revealed their first lens of 2018 at CES 2018, but decidedly not a consumer lens 🙂 It is the new Nikon NIKKOR 180-400mm f/4E TC1.4 FL ED VR AF-S available for pre-order for the price of a well used Honda Accord ($12,400) att Adorama and by Amazon itself and at B&H Photo.

Original post after the break for historical reference only…
Refurbished Nikon D3400 with 18-55 and 70-300 DX for $390
Back to the eBay Deals where we have a new low price. The manufacturer refurbished Nikon D3400 Two Lens Kit with the 18-55 and 70-300 DX lenses has dropped from $400 to $390, but also lost the $20 eBay gift card that had during the Black-Cyber season. It also gets a Nikon gadget bag. I don’t recall if this was included the Black-Cyber offering. They come with a 90-day Nikon USA warranty.
