Canon PRIVILEGE PURCHASE PROGRAM


Update for 700D under the privilege purchase program.

Price is $660 for body only, comes with the usual gifts like a bag, SD card, & shopping vouchers of $100.
 

Thanks for the update foxwagon.

I think for newbies keen on this set, can check out Sitex during 27 - 30 November 2014 // 11am - 9pm // Singapore Expo Hall 5 & 6. I wonder when the next upgrade is going to be?

Would anyone know if Canon G7X is available under the Privilege Purchase Programme? I called but was told to make a trip down for the technical personnel to assess my faulty camera. Hoping to avoid making the long trip if possible. Thanks.

I'm quite sure you can buy your G7X under PPP since my G1X Mk II was bought under PPP too. Normally, Canon wouldn't want to discuss PPP over the phone. Bring any old Canon film or digital camera down. It doesn't matter if it was functioning or not. I traded in an old film camera. Expect about 15% off the SRP. You might not get it straightaway; they'll order and you collect when available, unless they already have one at the service centre.
 

Thanks. I didn't know about the PPP previously so accumulated quite a number of Canon pns IXUS cameras over the years. Will visit the service centre.

btw, saw your photo taken on G1X M2. Very nice. Like the dragon boat photo :)

The G7x will only be available under PPP sometime in Jan '15. I made the trip to the service centre in mid Oct and was told about this.

Anyway, you can call up the hotline and insist to check on the availability of specific cameras. They wont be able to tell you instantly but will call you back.

Thanks. There are quite a few more photos Inserted in the G1X-II Review thread if you like to browse them. Most of them were linked from my Flickr site. I like the camera very much & using it much more than my DSLR when roaming around SG.

You will enjoy using the G7X. You might want to post some photos into the G7X/G1X-II photo sharing thread for CS'ers to enjoy after getting it.

Anyone get the 70D under PPP? Can share what is the latest deal. Thanks.
 

Is this still on-going?
 

Yes, only for 70D and below. No idea how far below.

70D body: SRP: SGD1499. This program: SGD1233 after GST before SGD 150 rebate.

One quote for the body I got one month back from the regular shops was about SGD1300 after GST before SGD 150 rebate.
 

In case anyone is still interested - the T&Cs for the programme is up on their website:
 

Wow... wasn't aware Privilege Purchase is still on. Anyone used it? Is it still 21% off RRP?
