By me having the 3 year protection plan coverage on my old camera, Canon Rebel Eos t4i, through Best Buy, I got my Canon Rebel Eos t5i for free. Of course, the replacement voided the old warranty. So, I had to purchase a new protection plan for my new camera. Only, $170 for 3 years, plus, I got $7 off.
The Best Buy plan says, if your camera is not repairable, they will junk it and replace it with a new camera, of the same value. Awesome!
Unfortunately, if you have any footage on your old camera, it's lost. Meaning, it goes to the junk with your old camera. Best Buy will not give it back to you. So, make sure you get it off your camera, if you can.
