Has anyone used them to make an offer on camera equipment? I have a lens I'm going to make an offer on soon but in the meantime my wife asked me to get her a new camera for her real estate business. I made an offer on a Sony A7 with a 28-70 OSS lens. I noticed today that the price of this camera has been lowered $100 and my offer was $48 less than that. I would bet they accept my offer now.

One thing I'm finding is I don't like waiting on them. The default wait time is 7 days which I changed to 3 days and we are less than 4 hours before my offer expires. If it does, I'll go to B&H to get it since there has been a price drop everywhere. They sent an email saying there is a "shortage across their network" but I can find one just fine. The $48 I save would cover and additional battery. Will update this later today.

I have not but will check it out. I have been wanting a prime 35mm and a wide angle to possibly fish eye for my NIKON. Prices on good glass are outrageous but you get what you pay for with low f stops.

I hadn't heard of that site before. I'll check it out.
Oh, NO!!!! It's not just camera gear. There are guitars too. My wife may be calling you to complain, Bill. ![]() |

My first offer was accepted. $150 under price the day I made the offer but as mentioned most majors lowered the price during my bid time by $100. Just wanted to update. My next purchase will tell the tale.

Just made an offer on a Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM Lens, they countered and I accepted at $140 under price shown everywhere. Shipping is normally 2 day. Order has shipped less than 30 minutes after accepting the offer. 30 day returns. This could be bad.
We received my wife's Sony A7 and she likes it. It is a bit different than using the Canons and I'm trying to figure it out. She took these of me with it on Monday. Last edited by Bill M; 05-03-2017 at 03:22 PM. |

Here is a referral link for anyone that may be interested in checking them out.
http://gtoe.me/Vbwc/lPh78GtFPB The above lens will be here today so five days from the offer, counter and acceptance to delivery. Not bad. |

I have made an offer on a tripod, but no takers yet. Apparently I'm bidding too low. I'm loving the site and hopefully I'll save a little money on some gear.
