I'm quite sure you can buy your G7X under PPP since my G1X Mk II was bought under PPP too. Normally, Canon wouldn't want to discuss PPP over the phone. Bring any old Canon film or digital camera down. It doesn't matter if it was functioning or not. I traded in an old film camera. Expect about 15% off the SRP. You might not get it straightaway; they'll order and you collect when available, unless they already have one at the service centre.
