B&H Pricing Questions - Gift Certificates & Black Friday

GlennG · 09-21-2015, 07:28 PM

I am about to receive about $800 in gift certificates to B&H. Some questions:

1. What happens to prices on Black Friday & Cyber Monday? What equipment are the deals on, and by how much, typically? That is only about 2 months away, so maybe worth it to wait until then? Thinking a lens or two, or maybe a K-3.

2. If I access the B&H web site through here, and then purchase with the gift certificates, will Pentax Forums still get the benefit? I am guessing so, but don't want to get tripped up by some oddity.

Thanks,

Glenn

Yes, we should get credit. Gift cards work like any other payment method.

It depends on the manufacturer. Historically we've gotten nice deals on select deals and cameras, though prices are already rather low at the moment so the drops may not be as big as in the past. Time will tell!

Thank you, Adam. I believe I'll wait until Black Friday, as I'm in no hurry and the gift certificates will certainly spend at a future time.
