Are there any Panasonic dealers in the USA that take Paypal?
Easier for me to pay that way as the wife will never know the cost!!! :grin:
 
Yeah, I know of one who is part of a group. Everyone in the group takes PayPal and the group includes a marriage counselor and a good quick divorce attorney as well.

Seriously, just contact a seller and ask the question. They may charge you a fee for using this service to cover their costs so just ask their policy on accepting PayPal payments.
 
keep in mind that on the credit card bill you will probably see something like PAYPAL B&H
with 5995$ or 9995$ next to it, I'm sure the question will be asked...
 
No I have the funds in the paypal acount. I keep it in there for buying goodies, so the credit card doesn't get touched! I sell on ebay and everything goes for equipment to the feature being shot next summer. But obviously a HVX200 isn't going to pop up on ebay very quickly, so a dealer that takes paypal would be great. as EVS take it I will check them out.
I have dealt with B&H and they are excellent, but everything they send over gets stung with import tax and VAT and handling.

Might buy with paypal, then book a few days in New York or California. the saving will pay for the break! better make sure I get a PAL version though!

Thanks for the info.

We will take paypal for anything that you would like to order and we are Panasonic Authorized. Just goto the website and and fill out the form, fax it back, pay via Paypal and your all set. You can save you 2% if you pay in full with a cashiers check though. Just think, an HVX200 for $5389 + 1 free cleaning + free shipping!

We are here to save you money! :thumbsup:

I've dealt with them for some time and somehow missed that. I did notice that their price on the HVX is a bit disappointing, so I'll be looking elsewhere.
 
I looked on the B & H website and found no mention of Paypal.

And Andrew, I have bookmarked spec-comm.com. Thanks for the info.

Hi Steve,

At EVS, we don't require a deposit. No money down, you can walk away from it anytime you want, right up until it's being put on the Fedex truck. We are Panasonic Authorized. The DVXuser price at EVS is $5599 for the kit, and you can pay with Paypal. We will also match the offer of the lowest authorized shipping dealer at the time we ship our cameras, in addition to enrollment in the HVX Club and getting 50% off certain 82mm filters. You will also get 10% over cost on certain Portabrace and Kata bags, as well as shotgun mics. HVX Club membership also entitles you to 50% off P2 Card rentals for 6 months after you buy the camera, with free shipping anywhere in the country for 1 week or longer rentals. That way you can hold out for the bigger cheaper cards, but still shoot HD in the interim. :)

And remember, we placed a very large HVX order with Panny, very early on, so we will be getting a substantially higher allocation than most other dealers. :thumbsup:

If you are interested, please email me at rush@evsonline.com for more info.
 
Something I'd like to clarify, so it doesn't get lost through the cracks: Rush is offering to match the price of any other AUTHORIZED dealer (so no shady Brooklyn rip-off joints, please) who are SHIPPING the product at that time. It's not fair to try to badger the EVS price down because someone else is taking pre-orders at a lower price; if any other authorized dealer in the country is actually shipping the product at the same time that EVS is prepared to ship it, then EVS is offering to match whatever the other authorized dealer is offering. But if other dealers are just promising "oh, we'll get 'em any day now", then that's not an apples-to-apples comparison. If the pre-order demand is as strong as it appears to be, other dealers might be waiting a long, long time before they get their product.

With EVS willing to match or beat any other authorized dealer's price for the same product (and that other dealer actually has the product in stock), as well as giving half off rentals of P2 cards, that's pretty sweet.

Me neither, I just sort of took EA's word for it. I'll check by calling (they're closed right now) and post back.

BTW, early next year there should be plenty of dealers on Ebay that will take PayPal. Most are probably not authorized dealers, but are yet another option. SaferSeas used to be on there at times, had great service the few times I dealt with them, but most of their site seems to be gone if not their business. That's a shame.
