Huh? The quoted text are your words! Haha
I said: “I paid $2400 total for a brand new one”
You said: “did that include tax? I don't see that deal is being such a great one considering that canon was selling refurbs for less than that last year and used ones are still going for less.”
I never said a word about yours not being brand new lol. You said my deal wasn’t great because you saw used ones and refurbs going for less than I paid. All I said is just because refurbs and used ones are less than I paid doesn’t mean it’s not a good deal. Why should I expect to EVER pay less for a new one than a refurb or brand new. That’s it. Never said a word about yours not being new lol.
You paid $2400 for a refurb last Black Friday. I paid $2215 for a brand new one. I don’t understand why you keep comparing refurb/used prices to new models.
Yes, you obviously got a much better deal than that for a brand new one. But to say my deal wasn’t good because you could buy one used for less makes no sense. For a deal to be good you have to be able to buy a brand new one of something for cheaper than it is used? lol
Fact is i paid like $630 less than if I went to BH.
You paid $1,100 less than if you went to BH.
Both deals are good. Yours was better. That’s it.
Is the $400-500 you saved more than me worth the USA model from authorized dealer that I got? Probably not.

Yes, that is with tax. It was $2,215 before tax. I’m sorry though, I don’t really understand. Why would I expect to pay less for a brand new model than a refurbished or used model? Seems obvious to me that refurbs and used models would be less money than a brand new one.
Anyways, is it the best deal ever? No. But I didn’t want to deal with a runaround during the purchase process. I wanted a US version from a US authorized dealer; regardless of what is said about Canon honoring warranties for grey market models. I personally feel that the process with an authorized dealer both before and after sale tends to be stress free, and it was.
I paid $2,400 total and had a brand new 5D + US warranty card 2 days later. The purchasing process was fast, easy and responsive. Pretty happy with that.
But no criticism to you, it seems like even though you had to work a little harder it worked out and you saved even $500 more than me.

if anyone is interested, I just unboxed the the $2,400 5D mark iv via greentoe - 100% US genuine, 0 actuations
did that include tax? I don't see that deal is being such a great one considering that canon was selling refurbs for less than that last year and used ones are still going for less. The deal I got was extraordinary because it was lower than what used USA models were going for...
Yes, that is with tax. It was $2,215 before tax. I’m sorry though, I don’t really understand. Why would I expect to pay less for a brand new model than a refurbished or used model? Seems obvious to me that refurbs and used models would be less money than a brand new one.
Anyways, is it the best deal ever? No. But I didn’t want to deal with a runaround during the purchase process. I wanted a US version from a US authorized dealer; regardless of what is said about Canon honoring warranties for grey market models. I personally feel that the process with an authorized dealer both before and after sale tends to be stress free, and it was.
I paid $2,400 total and had a brand new 5D + US warranty card 2 days later. The purchasing process was fast, easy and responsive. Pretty happy with that.
But no criticism to you, it seems like even though you had to work a little harder it worked out and you saved even $500 more than me.
I was referring to: “did that include tax? I don't see that deal is being such a great one considering that canon was selling refurbs for less than that last year and used ones are still going for less.”
