cashback query

[leightonjames]

Ok unbelievably i have managed to change my mind yet again about getting the 450D and i am getting a 40d. Period. But now the cheapest, Digital Rev is supposed to be good but can i get the cashback deal on the body from abroad and manage to get it quite cheap (450£!) or do i get it from over here to be safe.

Sorry to put you all through this.

I think the cashback deal is a canon UK thing. There would be a voucher in your box if its an import. 'least that's how it used to be with canon. Check t&c s on canons website.

"No Cashback On This Camera, Our Price Is Too Low!!"

Will i be able to use canons cashback?!

If you have the barcode then i cant see how you couldnt claim it, Which makes you wonder if they have repackaged and claimed it back them selves?

It used to be a voucher in the box (when I bought my 300D many moons ago), which you could redeem for your £100. If it ain't got one it's probably a grey import.

[ofcorsa]

I bought my 400D few months ago, You needed to send the barcode and fill a form out with your serial number, I assume canon UK will only give cash back on UK serial numbers, Either way seems strange a UK retailer would specifically say no cash back,

I bought my 50m f1.8 from kerso and will certainly use him in the future,

They're grey imports or when you get the box you'll find the barcode missing. Avoid.

[leightonjames]

cheers

Feel free to PM me for Ian's email address.

He's great value & I have had no problems with my order from him (I ordered my SB800, MB-D10, Sigma 10-20mm, 70-200 f2.8 & 2x teleconverter with him)

He's had a delay with the 10-20mm but I'm happy to hang on - the communication has been excellent.

I'll be spending via Ian again

another vote for Kerso, small delay on one item also but very good prices and everything exactly as promised!

I also will be shopping with him again once I have sold my present kit.

[leightonjames]

ok, Kerso it is then. Why's he so good compared to everyone else?

Plus a very competitive price

If you're VAT registered the difference is fairly minimal however. Still, for those not VATted, he seems very good and replied to my own request very quickly.

[leightonjames]

ok i have e-mailed kerso and he has quoted me 570 + 20£ postage. I will be able to get cashback with him right?

Yes definitely. I got cashback on lenses from him, and when I enquired recently about a body it was definitely subject to the Canon cashback offer.
