Canon EOS Rebel T5 DSLR with EF-S 18-55mm Lens

It’s a Canon DSLR at the price it should be sold at
“Entry-level DSLR” means “probably the best camera most people have ever held in their hands”
18MP sensor, 18-55mm zoom lens, ISO range 100-6400, 3" LCD display
1-year Canon warranty
Or, if they give you any shit about buying it from an “unauthorized” (i.e., renegade) retailer, we’ll cover it with a 1-year warranty of our own
Funny how Canon goes after anybody who breaks the rules for selling their “Rebel” camera
Model: 9126B003 (good thinking with the zeroes, Canon, planning ahead for models 9126B004 through 9126B999)

Tell Canon to blow us off the MAP!

Are you an approved Canon reseller who scrupulously follows their MAP rules to prevent customers from enjoying unauthorized discounts on Canon products? You probably really hate us right now. You’re probably ready to fire off a strongly (but not too strongly) worded email to Canon demanding they cast a bolt of divine lightning at Meh from their all-powerful fingertips. Well, we saved you the trouble! Simply copy and paste the following, replace the bold parts with the relevant details, and hit SEND! Good luck!

Dear Canon,

This is YOUR NAME of NAME OF RETAILER PARTICIPATING IN “MUTUALLY ASSURED PROFIT” CONSPIRACY. First, just let me say, we’re not looking for any trouble. You know we’ve always played ball. We’ve jumped through every hoop and done it with a smile on our face. When you tell us to raise our prices, we say “How high?” We’d never let a silly thing like free competition break up this beautiful relationship.

Far be it from us lowly retailers to question your wisdom. We’ll do whatever we have to to keep that sweet Canon inventory coming - including shut the hell up, if you so desire. But we just have to ask, why are you letting Meh get away with this? Today they’re selling the Canon EOS Rebel T5 for way below map, and as far as we know, their headquarters have not yet been reduced to a scorched, smoking crater.

Probably what’s going on is you guys have some master plan in motion that’s just gonna make these Meh guys regret the day they got a business license. I mean, come on, you’re Canon! You’re not just going to sit there and allow some penny-ante online bargain bin to break MAP. That’s what an impotent, blustering corporate oaf trying to enforce a unenforceable restraint on trade would do.

So please forgive me my insolence, and please send me video of those Meh bastards getting their MAP-busting asses smited real good. That’ll teach them to serve their customers instead of Canon!

Thank you, sirs, may I have another -
