canon loyalty program, through an agent working 8:30 to 5. you need an old canon camera or lens product though. Call (866) 443-8002, select option 2.

Canon refurbished cameras bought on the Canon website come with a one year warranty, same as new. I've bought several, and never had occasion to use the warranty. And I like the RP so much, that when my first one was destroyed on a stormy day, I immediately bought another. This price is so low, that I'm half tempted to buy another as a spare.

I bought and returned an RP a while back because it was not good for sports action. Otherwise this is a great value.

Since it wasn't posted in the OP:
RP is 26mp full frame camera.
R10 is 24mp APS-C camera.

This is a great deal. There is also R100 with kit lens available for $300. That's an unbelievable price.
I bought this instead of Nikon z6 since this price for a full frame is a steal. For the price, I will ignore the lower dynamic range of Canon vs Nikon/Sony.

$299 is a great deal. But the lowest I have ever seen for the R100 was black Friday, when it was $220... and some reason it was $204 after I went to capitalone and used their link.

I do suggest buying the 2 lens R100 kit for $100 more ($399)

When the R8 is on sale refurbished, it's $850-$900. To me that's much much much much better value.

The RP has a very old sensor, likely developed at the same time as the 5D III's, i.e. about 12 years ago. When they launched this sensor (c. 6-7 years ago in the 6D Mark II), people were astonished that Canon would start manufacturing a sensor that was clearly a generation behind even for them.

This camera will still take beautiful images. It just has Dynamic Range from over a decade ago (your phone will outclass its DR any day), and an AF system that's also a decade behind the curve.

If you can, wait for a refurb deal on the R8. It'll be $800 soon. That camera is a whole decade ahead of the RP!

I would even go so far as to say, this is a bad deal. I'm actually surprised Canon didn't clear their RP stock out completely two years ago at $500 when the R8 came out. This is ancient tech with very poor DR and AF.

Or for $850 when on same refurbished. Canon should clear their RP stock at $350-400 at last. That's how much it's worth.

Not saying you guys are wrong but where else can I find a FF camera for $500? Sony A7 (1st gen)? I would take the RP over that. its a great budget cam for anyone just switching to FF from APSC.

Not everyone needs the latest greatest and do Pro work. If you know what you're doing this can still take amazing pics!
