10D for $1315
 
I called Mike at CDW.COM and he gave me a corperate discount of $1315. Not too bad. If any of you want this price let me know...he is receiving 275 on thursday the 10th and 165 are already sold. 2nd day shipping is only like 20 bucks. if anyone is interested i will list his number. the kicker is...i dont know how he was able to give me a corporate discount...i ordered it for myself! And my company never orders anything from CDW. We may have to start with those prices.

Re: 10D for $1315
 
Thanks for the info. I would be interested in the number. The CDW website lists it at 1499. I just purchased one from Gateway and ended up at $1430 with tax. If CDW doesn't charge tax I will buy from them.

Re: 10D for $1315
 
they dont charge tax but i dont how you can get a corporate discount...maybe tell em you are starting a business and you know that ray rossini from the chicopee VNA in chicopee MA got it for 1315.

Re: 10D for $1315
 
with these prices its amazing people still pay 1200 for a used d60. I have on order a 10D from dell for 1309 but tax makes it an even 1400 dollars. I wonder if CDW charges tax in florida.

Re: 10D for $1315
 
Do you know "mike's" extention by any chance?
Did you have to haggle or did he offer the rate right off?

This sort of discount could really help me justify this kind of expensive purchase!

Ray, Sounds like a deal to me. Which Mike at CDW? or extension, or some other ID? Thanks, George

Re: 10D for $1315
 
THe only problem with Dell and Gateway and some of the other stores is that despite that you are getting a good price, you may have to wait a good while before you get your camera...


Has anyone in here placed an order with Dell or Gateway for a 10D and received it quicker than they expected? Quick meaning perhaps in less than 7-10 days?

B&H rulz!
lol

MIKE DITTRICH 1-877-536-3383. he is shipping mine tomorrow and will have it for monday at the latest...THIS IS A CORPORATE DISCOUNT. However the only thing i ever bought thru CDW was a modem hub for like $175. Tell him you own a business and use your home address as your buseness address.

Re: 10D for $1315
 
Thanks, got a 10D ordered for $1370. The only downer is, a few minutes after hanging up, the salesman called back to say that tomorrows shipment size has been reduce by canon, and the next shipment won't be until the end of the month. Still, at that price, I really can't complain, and I can always spend the next few weeks looking for a better price.

Re: 10D for $1315
 
Same story here. Got it for $1370. Supposedly it will be shipped by the end of the month. I don't mind the wait. I'll look for lower prices and I'm still waiting for a Sigma lens to come back from retrofitting to work on the 10D.

Sporto 9th of April 2003 (Wed) 23:32

Re: 10D for $1315
 
Do you know if they will ship to Canada? That would save me about $700.00 Canadian or $2.00 US

Let me know

Re: 10D for $1315
 
I too placed an order from CDW and got a real corporate discount on a corporate account for $1356.00. It was supposed to ship yesterday, I got the call today that it would be at least till the end of the month. Petty good price!

Re: 10D for $1315
 
My CDW Rep quoted me $1,329.00 and it seemed good to me compared to most web shops, so I committed. Glad to see users here consider this a good price too!

My order's #179 of #230 which are due in April 30th (as of 1026 hrs Central US).

crourke 14th of April 2003 (Mon) 21:53

Re: 10D for $1315
 
good to see someone get hard data on the how many are ordered:how many are expected ratio. I'm hoping I'm in the low 100's. My theory is canon will stretched thin everywhere to try and satisfy demand, thus many retailers will see reduced shipments. I want to be close enough to the head of the line that I'll still get my camera. I know the people who ordered from dell and gateway and saw similiar savings have seen nothing but delays. I understand some of them have been told to expect shipment in june. If thats how its going to be, thats fine, but I'd like to know now so I can cancel my order and start looking for one at $1499 a little sooner.

I canceled my CDW 10D order. Couldn't wait the lead time - have stuff to shoot next week. A friend told me that select BestBuy's had just gotten in 3-5 per store. 2 of 3 stores I called were sold out by 10:00 a.m. and one held it for me to pick up. You have to call and have them do a manual stock check because they aren't advertised yet (as of the 14th).

BB price matches, but they're currently selling the 28-135mm IS USM for $690.00 while a few local shops have it on the shelf for $497.00. The 10D sells for the current B&M standard $1499.99.

Try Adorama
 
FYI..I ordered my 10 D from Adorama on 4/9 ...they just shipped it out to me today 4/15 ...It looks like the big reputable stores ( Adorama, B&H, etc) are able to fill their orders pretty quickly

Sketcher - who is your CDW rep? Mine quoted me $1370.

Thanks -

Re: 10D for $1315
 
I was one of the first customers to recieve a 10D from Gateway. I recieved it a week after I ordered it. I've had it for well over a month now. I got mine for $1350 + sales tax.

Re: 10D for $1315
 
That CDW price seems to be gone, but there is still a slight discount. My company does have a corporate account and I was able to get one for $1434, no sales tax to California, and 2 day shipping for $17. My rep said there are more comming from Canon by month end, so we'll see.

Sketcher!

Thank you for the tip!

I have been trying to get a 10D anywhere for a few weeks with no joy,.. BUT One of the three local Best Buys had ONE!

It is now mine and I love it. (got it last night and despite overcast skies I shot about 300 pics today.

This is my first post on this forum and had to thank you for the info :)

Re: 10D for $1315
 
No waiting for the D10 at Fry's electronics. They don't advertise, but if you call in advance chances are they have it in stock at $1499. Hopefully a Fry's Electronics is in your local neighborhood. Not too many people are aware that Fry's carry them. I went to the one in Las Vegas and they had 15 in stock!!

Re: 10D for $1315
 
Update today from Mike at CDW is that the shipment has been yet again delay/reduced. No word yet on when.

Raymond-Anthony...I know how you feel and it bears repeating twice ;^) I have a feeling I'll be using my G2 for a bit longer than I hoped.

crourke 29th of April 2003 (Tue) 19:52

Re: 10D for $1315
 
Has anyone gotten a new date from their rep? Are they even getting any on the 30th? Considering my order was originally supposed to ship week ago, I'm getting a bit skeptical.

Chris

CyberDyneSystems 29th of April 2003 (Tue) 20:08

Re: 10D for $1315
 
You all have more patience than I did :)

I had one on order for $1370.00 form another source,.. when the second week came around with no re-stock,. I found one and paid $1499.00 at BestBuy.

justme_dc 29th of April 2003 (Tue) 20:28

Re: 10D for $1315
 
Well, I paid $1599. plus tax for mine but I have had it since march 20th. Was the month plus I have spent shooting it worth the extra cash? Oh yeah!!! I mean I understand trying to get the best price but in a year will the $200 matter all that much? I have shot images in the last month that are among the best I've ever produced just because the digital format has let me take risks I normally wouldn't take with film. If you guys can wait for a $1315 price you have more patience than I do!

Spend the money, buy the 10D and feel the joy!

That's my .02¢

I gave my Rep a link to this thread and he provided me the quote. He’s not interested in having his name listed – otherwise I’d provide it. I talked w/him yesterday and he said the price is still good and it’s a matter of what the Rep wants to sell it for (no one’s dictating a higher price) it’s just that the demand has been noticed and it’s no longer a “sleeper” product.

It seems that even CDW is having a hard time getting shipments in and replenished though. I couldn’t wait and bought mine through BestBuy.

CyberDyneSystems, Great, glad to hear you found one!! I’m new to the board myself - but “Welcome to the board!”. Seeing as how others are still waiting for their orders to fill, I’m even more pleased that I bought mine locally. $200+ is a significant savings if you can handle the wait. Personally, I’ve enjoyed my 10D so much that I’d have been glad to get it even if I hadn’t have needed it so quickly. Truly enjoyable experience shooting with this camera. Now to start stalking a photo printer!

Re: 10D for $1315
 
My CDW rep just emailed me the following regarding my 10D order.

"I apologize for the hassle. I was contacted by someone in our
international freight department, and they said that we are not authorized
to ship Canon products out of the country. At this point it would probably
be best to cancel the order. This is a restriction on Canon products, and I
will check into other brands for you if you like. Thanks, sorry about the
inconvenience."

I guess Canon has that demographics marketing in tact. Anyone in Canada buy a 10D from the US? I think I will just have to pay the extra and buy locally. It's gonna cost $1745 usd before taxes, and after taxes it'll cost $1998 usd.

Re: 10D for $1315
 
PC Connection will ship to Canada. The delivery charge is only $24.00 including brokerage fees...

Now, gonna wait for back order...

rob_s 6th of May 2003 (Tue) 23:30

Re: 10D for $1315
 
Mike at CDW now says that they have backorders going back to middle of March and that the earliest they will be able to catch up is in early June. Evidentally, Canon is still way behind in fulfilling orders, and is shipping in dribs and drabs.

UWannaB 13th of June 2003 (Fri) 23:20

Re: 10D for $1315
 
Ordered mine the beginning of April & just received it this week. At least they didn't promise that I'd see it sooner. I understand that everyone is still backordered on it too; local store quoted me 8 weeks (as of last week)

At least my CC was charged until it shipped!
