DEAD: Officemax B&M only Canon ZR45MC DV Cam for $299.99. YMMV.

Great Deal. Went and was told they were sold out and they couldnt sell display. Gave me a # to call and have it delivered. Went home called the # the lady on the phone told me it was a clearance model and a store only sale. Went back and got it for $234.59 out the store. They took off 10% for it being a display model and then I used the $50 of $250.

dude, you ware the king! i'm totally impressed. can you pm me where you got the coupon? i bought the display model too, they didn't give me any guff about buying it but wouldn't give me a discount. did talk them into throwing in an extra battery pack, tho. seems they had one floating around that didn't go with any camera.

fyi, i tried the indoor/low light shooting and doesn't seem that bad to me - indoor with good light source looks great, low light is grainy but you can still see everything. my complaint is the lack of any easy backlight mode - my 7-year-old canon es900 has a button on the side that does a great job of compensating for back-lit subjects, this cam has nothing! other than that, a great deal. now i just have to decide if i should just buy a firewire card or pop for a whole new motherboard ... of course, you can guess which one i'd like to do!!!

Hi ,
i bought one on monday with the extended warranty for 348$ ,i tried to return but they refused !
they said they can apply the credit towards another camera,anyway if anyone is interested pm and i'll sell it for cost.

What's wrong with the camera? Why are you selling it?

Bad_Dude, thanks for the deal. Local OfficeMax had only the display, went across the street to Sears for a PM(price match to those who seem mixed up about abbreviations here). Got it for $279.99 + tax.

Thanks again for the awesome deal!!!

Rickon66 Thanks for the hint. OM was sold out in Houston but I got the last piece from Sears for 279.99. Their sale price was 499. Very good deal.

just got a firewire card from newegg - $30 and it included a cable and ulead video studio 6. sweet! works like a champ - winxp has the drivers for the card AND camera built it, as soon as i connected the cable and turned on the cam ulead opened up and i was downloading clips. what a fun toy! thanks again, bad_dude!

Can anyone get this camera for me? I have called around a 150 mile radius to all OfficeMax stores, none of them have it. IS this deal still a go????

 

[Bad Dude]

DEAL is over. Sorry.
