• Just finished phone ordering the Pro-100 at $298 (Sunday morning)
• price on web is $398 ... $298 price is by phone only
• Printer + included A3+ 13x19" paper results in $300 rebate (via AmEx reward card)
• 866.614.7544 ... http://www.bhphotovideo.com/FrameWork/Rebates_Promos/0331314_CANON_PRO-100.pdf
• $400 rebate if purchase qualifying camera on same receipt

• before rebate ... $548
• after $400 rebate ... $148
• Obviously, the cost for oem ink will eat your wallet alive if you do much printing, unless you refill ink cartridges
