Yeah, I saw that. That's not a 20% off price. And add to that a $7 shipping fee from the 3rd party seller. The one from Amazon directly is $69 with free shipping, which for me is 2-day. That's still a good price, so I'm not complaining. Just needed something to whine about.

Am I missing something Mark? $69 - 20% discount from Amazon is ~$55 shipped.

I went through the list of qualifying bags on that link you posted and the SlingShot wasn't on it. Maybe they've added it since? There was a blank page on the listing, so maybe they were still filling it in. I'll go check it out again.

It's still not listed as an eligible bag, but the discount code worked at checkout, so I guess you're right. Thanks for the heads-up, Chewy.

Ahh, cool. I just didn't know what you meant before since I went to the bag page directly and added the coupon at checkout.

So did you get it?

Not yet. My birthday is in a week and I expect some Amazon gift certificates from the family, so I'll wait. The discount is good until the 22nd. I also have a circular polarizing filter in my cart. Gift certs are a wonderful thing. You always get what you want.

Got the Slingshot 102 ordered. The price has dropped to $58 and the 20% off code (LP2OSAVE) works, so the bag is now down to $46.40. Seems like a good price for that bag. Also have a Hoya circular polarizer coming.

Next up will be the 50mm f1.4 lens.
