Canon EOS 6D body deals

[winsum]

Hey all,

Im looking for deals to buy Canon 6D body. I've been following available deals here at CR for quite a while, which were from $1400-1600. Now my confusion is that there are many top rated ebay sellers offering the same new camera in the range $1550-1600. Is it worth considering those offers, while they are not posted here? or is it so that canonrumors only posts offers from the most trustworthy digital camera sellers?

I dont see any new deals and thinking to purchase the camera already from ebay.

Thanks!

Highly recommend a refurb from the canon store.

Thanks brad-man for the link. I found out the difference b/w authorized/unauthorized sellers and so price difference.
About refurbished, there is around $150 difference in new and refurbished camera by canon usa. Is it worth spending extra to get a new camera or refurbished with one year warranty is equally good?

Canon refurbs used to only carry a 90 day warranty, but now they carry the same 1 year warranty as new. It is a bit more of a hassle to fix something that does go wrong because you don't have the option to return it to a local brick-and-mortar store. That said, I've been happy with 10-22 and 5DII, and a couple 600EX-RTs that I've purchases as Canon refurbs. It's also a better deal when the Canon refurbs are on sale.
