eBay Daily Deal: 5D Mark III + 24-105L for $2949 (Import) BigValueInc


This eBay Daily Deal is back. BigValueInc via eBay has the Canon EOS 5D Mark III with EF 24-105mm f/4L IS Kit for only $2949.99. This is within $50 of the lowest price we’ve ever seen on a brand new (import) 5D Mark III + 24-105mm. It’s also $350 less than our authorized dealer street price.

If you split the kit and sell the 24-105mm for $600, it is like getting a 5D Mark III for only $2349 — an incredible price.

BigValueInc is a reputable unauthorized dealer who has been a source of reliable deals over the last few years. They have a 99.3% feedback score on high-value Canon items, including a solid feedback record on the previous 5D Mark III + 24-105mm sale.

This is an import version (physically identical to the US model, but not intended for the US market). A Canon USA warranty is not guaranteed, so the store provides a warranty instead. After one year, your kit becomes the same as every other Canon USA warranty kit: if you need service you will need to pay Canon for it (and Canon will gladly service an grey/import model if you pay for service). Compare with our street price of $3299 AR from an authorized dealer. Transactions on eBay have been generally safe as you can rely on eBay Protection, PayPal Protection, and credit card protection.

    i noticed that this seller has bad rating on resellerrating.com. it makes me nervous to buy from them. did anyone buy this already? what is your experience? how is the camera.

      a couple of people on CPW had ordered from them last deal early oct. and had similar apprehension. in the end they received the product as described after about a week.

      i ordered on this deal early morning 11/3. shipping label and tracking number generated later that same day. i periodically checked throughout the day of 11/4 and found that the product still hasn’t literally “shipped”, rather the carrier is merely prepared to ship.

      late this same evening after checking ebay i found that the shipping carrier changed to a different one with, of course, a different tracking number. this number seems to be correct as the product is now in transit. (very similar if not identical experience as the other 2 people mentioned earlier). estimated delivery also seems on par with the other experiences at about 1 week.

      will update at that time.

          i am pleased to report that everything arrived exactly as promised by the retailer, big value inc.

          shipping took approximately one week, camera body and lens arrived packaged separately in the same box. all items and accessories described in their ebay description were included in box. i checked the shutter count on the camera and it is absolutely brand new.

          shipping may have appeared questionable at first but the retailer has proven to be legitimate. i think others can order with confidence.
