Micro Center - 20% off All* Cameras and All** Printers

[Rex914]

Yep, it's that time of year again. I told you it was coming.

As long as you aren't getting a DSLR or a printer over $300, you get an INSTANT 20% off any digital camera, camcorder, or photo printer. I highly recommend taking a look at Micro Center, especially if you live near one of their stores. The in-store selection will be better than the online one, particularly if you are buying a higher end camera.

This will last about 2 weeks. (Maybe 4)
Remember that you get 20% off EVERY applicable item. This is the hottest sale of the year. Take advantage of it!

Sample Deals

Canon PowerShot G6 $599 -> $479
Canon PowerShot A95 $299 -> $239

Rex -- where did you find those prices? I can't find a listing for the G6 on the MC website.

I do have a MC store near me...but when I called the person I spoke to couldn't find a listing for the G6...

UPDATE:

Wow--never mind. I called again, and they have one in stock. $479 -- holy sh*t!!!!!!!!!!

Excellent deal from Micro Center.

Rex, YOU ROCK!

Thanks so much for telling me about this. I am now a proud new owner of a G6!

[Rex914]

You're welcome! As I said, the website selection is not representative of what they really have in stock. If you're in the area, I highly recommend checking them out. That's where I got my digital camera last time. :D

Rex, thanks for posting this, I saw some great deals today, the canon A510 was $159 and the newer sony DSC-S60 was $199 for those on a tight budget. They also offer extended warrantys. Again thanks!

I'm sure that many people aren't familiar with this chain. In size, the stores resemble CompUSAs...they're not tiny storefronts in Brooklyn. I've found MC to be a reliable vendor. And you just can't beat this deal!

[Bluedog]

They also have excellent customer service and even tech support on some stuff.

[Rex914]

Yes, I definitely agree about the superb customer service. They really know their stuff here. We've even had our computers fixed here multiple times. They diagnose the problem, fix it, and have it ready the same day! Try that at any other mainstream brick and mortar store. *cough Fry's *cough*

The people at Fry's are so unknowledgeable. We made a phone call asking for a specific laptop and to our complete disbelief, SEVERAL people asked "Does it have a Pentium II processor?" And this is supposed to be coming from people who live in Silicon Valley, Indians to be exact. That really blows away the tech-saavy stereotype right there. I will leave it at that.

Do you need a coupon to buy in-store? Or is it automatic? The website makes you validate a coupon. I just want to be prepared when I walk in the store tomorrow.

[Rex914]

It was automatic for me.

I just got back from Micro Center. They had about 60 cameras available. I purchased a Sony W7 for $359. Not too bad. They also had Nikon 7900 for $320, Sony P200 for $320, Canon A520 for $240. I was looking for a point and shoot. I'm very glad I found this thread.

If you have a Micro Center in your area, you may want to visit - they had a few more current models in stock than on the website.

[bigstudd]

hey, they don't have Canon Powershot SD500 on that site...

[Fleet]

The website only lists the "old" models. For a more current selection, go to one of their stores in person. They had Canon SD500 at the Madison Heights, Michigan store for $400, I believe.

That store has a significantly different selection than the website.
