My local store has a 430 EXII in stock, and it looks like this would apply. Thanks for posting!

Per the exclusion terms:

"Digital Imaging: Sony camcorders, digital cameras, NEX cameras, DSLR cameras, lenses & flashes; Nikon DSLR & compact system cameras, lenses & flashes & P510; GoPro cameras;"

So, only Sony and Nikon gear are excluded?

Anyway, nice pickup for a 40mm.

I'd imagine this one: http://image.emailinfo​2.bestbuy.com …ardPromo_Coupon​_final.pdf (external link)

Shame it's US only, or I'd have done the same as the OP.

Not bad at all. $149 in cart and then $50 off. Sweet promotion.

Yes, they threw the standard BS of lenses/flashes excluded. I had to insisit that only Sony, Nikon and GoPro per the coupon..(See the separation by ";")

Just want to make sure you got it right. It's in-store only and you have to pay with a MasterCard.

Yeah, when I glanced at it for the first time, I thought that basically all DSLR gear were excluded. So, I'm not surprised that employees at Best Buy would interpret it that way too.

apparently this coupon has been getting hammered all over the country today. Since it doesn't say there's a limit of 1 coupon per customer, people have been using it multiple times on separate purchases. Some are even getting away with gift card purchases on it. Whomever wrote this one up for best buy might be in some trouble...

I wonder if it's worth getting if you already have the nifty fifty using full frame.

Just FYI, for those who can still manage to get to Best Buy tonight, I just went to Best Buy and it seems that the coupon has been revised. I handed them a coupon and they replaced it with another one. And that revised ones were posted all over the store. The exclusion list has been changed. Also, today is the last day.
