Thanks for the tip on this, if anyone else hasn't been up to date, the GoPro Hero3 Black or Silver Edition cameras are currently on sale. Knocking off up to $70 dollars off this popular little camera is a pretty sweet deal at the GoPro.com website (check it out here).

That means hero3 accessory prices decrease too, huh?

Black edition is still cheaper from Amazon UK than direct from GoPro. (I didn't check the silver) $330 vs £360 though I'm guessing the UK price includes tac whilst the US one doesn't. The prices haven't been slashed through on the GoPro site for me like they have in your screenshot.
I guess it is a US only sale? Though I see the same price is also on offer on Amazon US. As with buying everything still do your homework before just going for a sale price. If websites are like the supermarkets here some offers can work out more expensive than the normal price!
Thanks for the heads up though, been after a black one and I don't like to miss a deal!

Pretty sure we are seeing discounts because they are coming up on announcement of the Hero4 model, and they are trying to clear the inventory channel of the Hero3.

Both the Hero2 and Hero3 have come out in Oct over the past two years.
I'm of the mind that if you wait, we'll see even better discounts closer to or after the Hero4 announcement.

For Europe the price is 449 €... that is 588$
