I'm still rocking a Canon 650D... a 2012 entry-level DSLR... and I voluntarily passed on taking advantage of the camera price errors...

Someone sell me a camera. My Nikon D40 is like 15 years old.
PM me. Fair price will work for me.

lol, what's the total you saved on this? Those Sony A7R II's were also going for 95 dollars? my god.
Pretty much every delivery I've had of late has been via their own Amazon delivery service. But they were saying it was more the warehouse that had delays with product arrivals and deliveries.
Some crazy price mistakes. You usually have to find them on the SlickDeals forums well before it blows up, and they usually don't last long. Everyone loves a good deal, congrats to those who got lucky. Which leads me to...
I do this too, but there is something better to supplement this method when combined with SlickDeals. This thread is pretty deep, but wanted to quickly mention the Keepa add-on if you are a frequent Amazon shopper. Basically price tracker built into most product pages. Used to have sales rank info and more for free, but that was recently paywall'd unfortunately
Tempted to jump on a PS4 deal as mine has apparently decided to die (HDMI port has given up and will only sometimes output sound, never video) but I just feel a bit 'meh' about buying the console again. Warranty repair will cost £125 so that is cheaper...
Workers are striking in the USA and in different countries in Europe. As far as I know these are two different continents and more than "just one" location on strike.
If it makes you feel better to handwave away the concerns of others with your "facts" then ... you do you I guess. But yeah, cool story with that "just one" location.
Were action cams included in yesterday's price glitch? And are there currently any good deals on an action camera in the $100 range?
You might wanna sit down and join the support group. Yes, there was a GoPro Black glitch that came with a $50 dollar Amazon gift card basically making the GoPro's free. I haven't seen anything outside of the sessions and clearance being around that price.
The regular Anova is good. Can't go wrong.
Personally I have the Joule, but it's a bit annoying to have to open the app to set my temp. The only real benefit to the Joule I think is that it's really small which is great if you want to keep it in a drawer.
One of my lenses made it to the local post office for final delivery. At least one of mine looks like it will happen!
The x-h1 camera body and the other telephoto lens still haven't shipped yet, though and are still showing as being delivered tommorrow. I doubt those two will be happening now. Hopefully they were just caught up in the amazon work stoppage, but the longer they sit at amazon the less chance i have of getting them :(
I should have just spammed a bunch of sony orders like many here, but no I just had to spend time and make sure i got all the fuji stuff i wanted first..... bleh!

Wait, the Sony A7R II was going for $95?
Omg, I'm weeping right now
I know it's a long shot, but if someone if looking to get rid on one, PM me. I've been looking for switch from Canon for some time

Man I hate that Amazon stop price/deal matching.
I took advantage of the Echo Show 5 deal, but than found out if you traded in an older echo you get $X + 25% off. I tried to get them to credit that to me, but nope only way was to cancel and order it again. They also said they couldn't cancel because it was in the process of getting shipped, but funny enough once it was actually on the truck I was able to cancel it before it got delivered.
Then of course there was a deal for the Pixel 3a XL even though I just bought it on July 6th and instead of just giving me credit for the $100 giftcard they want me to return the phone and reorder. Sort of works out for me since I wasn't super jazzed about the phone and may opt for the 3a now.

I'm sure there's plenty of them people are getting rid of, if you want to pay 80% MSRP
some people may be willing to trade if you got something though, like a lens or another body from this deal. but yeah, no one is going to be nice enough to sell you a body for cheap when they can get 1000+ for it on ebay or Fred Miranda.
Yeah that's definitely understandable. I got an A7ii with a 50mm lens, so if anyone is willing to trade mine for their a7rii or the a6500 I'd be more than happy to.
I got the Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark III which cost $700 for $100 as part of the error and I still felt like I missed out big time.
Edit: Wait, the camera itself was more $550. I got a bundle.

I was up and saw this going down live and was ready to buy, but my job didn't pay me on time. Literally up at 3am waiting for that direct deposit to hit. Stayed up until 4 to be safe. And all they had to say was "our bad".
Anyone have opinions on smart bulbs? I was going to pick up some Kasa/Tp-link ones since I'm already into that ecosystem already and Hue seems just super expensive.
I only have experience with Hue bulbs but they're premium tier for a reason, they're particularly better in WiFi congested buildings because they build their own network rather than rely on WiFi.
On the fence about the Echo Show 5 for $25
To piggyback off this answer, I went down the tp bulb route and it sucked.
If you want a good alternative get a used hue bridge and use cheaper compatible bulbs like those from GE.
My setup is just hues (6) and those GE bulbs (5) and it's awesome; around 5 years old no problems.
My main recommendation for the hue system is the standalone wall switch/remote. It's very convenient because it remembers your most used settings and is a life saver if you sometimes misplace your phone.
What was the reason the TP sucked for you?
And I plan on integrating everything into Google assistant to bypass the phone route. The bridge is on sale for $40 which isn't terrible, I didn't know you could get other bulbs to integrate into the Hue bridge though, so that's awesome.
So is anyone else going to say it?
If that's all the money you have...
You can regularly get the white hue bulbs for $10 at Home Depot.
Medical issue ate up funds. * shrug *
This would've been a good way to make it back (and then triple it).
Not that that not being the case should disallow me from venting.
Anyway, got the money, already filling savings back up, ready to buy SOMETHING I could flip or at least enjoy.

Did I really miss out on that 55 dollar instapot? Fuck my life, I was looking up recipes on YouTube and everything.
Missing the cameras is probably the most painful missed deal of the year for most of us lol
Agreed lol. That deal was ridiculous. And I'm the one who works at an Amazon warehouse lol fuck me for trying to get some sleep in ya know haha.
There's a guide online but it involves trading in an old echo device. I have my limited whole foods credit as well, if I get that amazon photos credit then I might snag it, but I really have no idea what I'd use it for.
Hue + 3 bulbs for $60
2 * Switch + Bulb for $25each
I missed the switches for $17 when i was adding things to my cart noooooo.

Just picked up Star Trek TNG blu ray for $65. Lowest I've ever seen that.

"Workers in the USA are striking" once again makes it sound like all the employees are, which is not the case. One out of 75+ fulfillment centers are going on strike. I haven't kept up with EU.
People are against Amazon because they are the biggest, not the worst. I have 2 family members who work at fulfillment centers. They both got major pay raises in the last couple years and have talked about how much it has improved overall.
So no, I will save my protesting for meaningful things.

I just purchased the Sennheiser HD599 SE. Applied the Discover promo and got $39.99 off the sale price. Used my cashback rewards on it and it came out to 20 dollars total :D
Picked up a Maglite for $33, about 25% cheaper than it's normal price. I've been using my phone ever since my cheap auto zone flashlight died.

This hurts since I was just looking to get back into photography. Ugh. My normal tweeters are lettin me down this year on alerting me to great deals.
