Hot! Fuji 2.1 MP Finepix 2400 Dig. Camera $220.00!+-

[Redline]

Yet another good deal from MERCATA. As before if your a new customer you get 20% off plus another 20% by using a MSN Passport. Make sure you go through ebates to get another 5%!(yes it works I already did this)
Here's my example:

1. Fuji 2.1 Megapixel Digital Camera w/1600 x 1200 Resolution, FinePix 2400 Zoom
   
2. Current PowerBuy price: $375.79
   
3. MSN Wallet Discount: -$67.95
   
4. Mercata$ Reserved: -$75.23
   
5. ebates rebate: -$18.79
   
6. Total BEFORE shipping & Tax(WA&PA) = $213.82

Of course the price keeps coming down with the more buyers there are.
Hurry though the Mercata 20% is only good for a couple more days!
Here is a review of the camera: Camera Review!

Get the Nikon Coolpix 800 from mercata for almost the same price doing the same steps as listed above plus using $75 rebate from nikon. I here it's a better camera than the Fuji. Alos it has a video-out but the Fuji doesn't.

Dammit, the current power buy has this camera for $675... maybe Mercata has caught on...

I can't get ebates to work. I get as far as the MSN Passpot wallet, but when it accesses my Passport info, the ebates screen disappears, and I figured my link is lost. This occurs with Netscape; if I use IE 5.5, Mercata just crashes when Passport is selected, and default backs to the Mercata main screen.

Anyone else have this problem?

Ummm..."cbass", your looking at the wrong camera. The Fujifilm Finepix 40i is $675 the Finepix 2400 is down to $368! Unfortunately the latest review at The Digital Camera Resource Page makes it seem only average compared to similar cameras.:frown:
And "Centralscrutinizer", it did the same thing to me in IE5.5 so I opened up another browser and went thru Mercata like I was gonna purchase it step by step until I saw my personal info appear(which I couldn't get it to do thru ebates). Then I closed that browser and re-tried the ebates browser and the screen finally appeard-weird but hey it worked! I will have to wait & see if the rebate ever comes from ebates though.

I'd go for the Nikon CoolPix 800, which, through Mercata, costs about $25 more, but IMO is a far better camera than the Fuji Finepix.

Final cost: ($500 mercata, less $100 Mercata dollars, less $80 discount(MSN Passport 20% off), less $75 rebate)=$245. If you can get ebates to work, you can get an additional $17 off.

The Nikon 800 has the same CCD and other guts as the 950, with a few less features (2x instead of 3x). Check out this review, particularly the sample photos:

i just ordered a coolpix 800. the powerbuy ended while i was shopping or something so im thoroughly pissed off. i think one powerbuy ended while i had it in my shopping cart. 5 minutes later a new one started i think and the price went back up. go out there and bid with me on this one so we cna get that price down again!

 

[nuttervm]

ok or not. i thought everything at mercata was a powerbuy... apparently this one isnt? its still a good deal 275 but im pissed about the deal dying while i was waiting
