ShunCheung Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 <p>There are various deals where you need to buy a DSLR body plus one or more lenses. The higher-end bodies will quality you for discounts with higher-end lenses.</p><p>This deal expires on November 22, but most likely it will be extended throughout the holiday season. The following is B&H's link: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/promotion/10383/nikon-buy-together-and-save.html</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
User_4754088 Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 <p>Man, if I needed a pro body that would be a great deal.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andre_noble5 Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 <p>I bought a D610 from B&H 4 weeks ago w/o the special, would they honor a retroactive discount lens purchase I wonder?</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilsivan Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 BH has a 30 day price drop guarantee I think. Can't hurt to ask! Why don't you try and be sure to let us know what happens! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShunCheung Posted November 20, 2014 Author Share Posted November 20, 2014 <p>My local camera store worked this out with me back in 2010. At the time there was a similar body + lens rebate, but I thought it was just one lens, so I bought a D7000 (then a brand new model) and a 70-200mm/f2.8 AF-S VR. Two weeks later, I wanted a 24-120mm/f4 AF-S VR also. The store let me "return" the original purchase and then sold me the one body, two lens combo on the same receipt, and I got discounts on both lenses.</p> <p>The key is that Nikon requires everything to be on the same receipt. You can buy one body and 10 lenses if you want, and you can get the discount on all 10 lenses. (I haven't seen the fine prints, but I assume that those 10 lenses have to be all different. I doubt that you can get discounts on three 70-200mm/f2.8 AF-S VR with one body purchase.)</p> <p>Can't hurt to check with B&H. Hopefully you are still within the return period.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andre_noble5 Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 I called B&H first thing this morning. I plead my case and the first guy took notes. Then a second guy called me an hour later. They not only honored the $400 70-200 2.8 discount, but also honored the $200 discount on the D610 body AND threw in a free remote. So in essence I got a $600 discount on the lens I have always wanted but beyond my reach. I know this sounds corny, but B&H has been like family.

evilsivan Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Congrats that's great news! I am thinking about making some purchases and was researching price drop guarantees last night, so your post was quite relevant. Not sure what Adorama's policies are, I'm liking their bundle of freebies a little better than BH's but the price drop guarantee might be the deciding factor.

ShunCheung Posted November 20, 2014 Author Share Posted November 20, 2014 <p>The camera stores' policy is very simple, be it Adorama, B&H or Keeble and Shuchet (my local store): if they can sell you more items to make more money, they will try their best to help you make that happen. :-)</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
