First time to try Greentoe. Offer got accepted during 1 day, from a Sony authorized dealer. Couldn't wait to see the camera!
Do you think this is a good deal as well?
This is my first time posting on slickdeals and got a downvote, which makes me wonder where I could have received a better price. The lowest I could find this kit combo for on eBay was $1600.

The next person should try $1250 or 1200 offer
TMBK this is a great deal. I am monitoring this kit for more than one year. I once used a Nikon D90 18-105mm and liked the set very much. Later on I was obsessed with full-frame and advanced to D750 24-120mm. Imaging is superb however the set was bulky and heavy and decreased my willing to use it. I am looking for something like D90 kit and realized this is the closest set in terms of performance and quality.
In old days there are so many DSLR deals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year time. Now the dedicated camera's market share is greatly shrunk due to people majorly use phone to take pictures.
That is why a mirrorless camera deal is difficult to find these days.
I put in a bid for Sony a6700 with 18-135mm. I will let you know, what happens!
I got mine accepted.
As per their request, I removed the price and all I can tell you is, it is a very decent deal. I am still in "being processed" stage. Hopefully, I will get it soon !

Don't worry about the downvote. I think many people think there is no point buying APS-C cameras nowadays, now that FF cameras are affordable and so are third party lenses. That may be why you got downvoted. To each their own.

The old days were the best, great deals on Canon camera and lenses, sometimes a large printer as well, free after rebate!
I would've thought the opposite as far as pricing and market shrinking for mirrorless cameras. Thinking less demand due to phone users, drop in price. But this isn't happening. I have a Sony 6100 I got several years ago when it first came out. It still MSRP's at the same price!
I'm tempted to get a full frame Sony to play with. Many times when I travel, my kids like to use the 6100, so I end up just use my phone. ☺️
I would say make your offer 7 days and wait to see if they bite.
That counteroffer may be from a different vendor. Mine wasn't accepted until the wee hours of the morning
$1250 didn't get accepted after 7 days of hanging.
Made a $1300 offer and it was accepted within the hour.
IMO this package is a great deal, excited to receive it in hand to replace my 12-year old Sony NEX-5T.

Is your $1300 bid all-in with tax and shipping?
