Canon Discovery Days & Tax Free Sale! - 05-15-2008, 06:35 PM




Houston Camera Exchange
presents...

Canon Discovery Days


Friday, May 23rd
and
Saturday, May 24th

Join Canon representatives for in-store product demonstrations, instant rebates on select Canon products and tax-free purchases* on all Canon product during these two days only. Don't miss this special event and sale! You also don't want to miss out on the Canon seminars on the 21st and 22nd. Seats are almost sold out!

* Canon items will receive product discounts equal to the amount of tax paid on that Canon-related purchase. The tax-free sale is only available to those purchases completed during regular store hours on May 23 and/or 24, 2008 and is not retroactive to previous purchases. If a Canon product is unavailable or sold out, a special order may be placed. However, payment for that special order must be made, in full, during the in-store sale event. All instant rebates will be deducted prior to tax-free discount. Tax-free sale is limited to new / current model Canon product only. If you are currently eligible for tax-free status by Texas law (DBA, manufacturer's exemption, etc.), you will still receive the 8.25% discount.

Key point for me in that post is....

If you are currently eligible for tax-free status by Texas law (DBA, manufacturer's exemption, etc.), you will STILL receive the 8.25% discount.

Thanks for the heads up...

I'd like to come down for this, but the money I'd spend on gas would wipe out my purchase savings.

Thanks, Mike! I just need to make up my mind what I want/need.

What's your price on the Canon 100-400?

Shawn,

Sorry for the delayed response. The 70-200 IS 2.8 would be $1,849.00 before the $100 instant rebate. However, I am not sure if we will have any.

Canon kind of messed up on this deal. Due to the recent price increases (5/16) all dealers in the U.S. horded lenses before the increase (including us). Now they are having a hard time delivering many things to us (mostly lenses and flashes). Of course, you can still special order and get the tax break.

Thanks,
Mike

Matt,

$419.99 after instant rebate. Shipping would probably be about $10.00 to a residence ($7.50 to a business) for UPS ground. If you qualify for normal tax-free status, take an extra 8.25% off.

Currently out of stock but hope to have them back in by Friday.

Regards,
Mike
