You seem to overlook or discount the word "refurbished"

. Like anything else, it is true the price has dropped.

I believe Canon prices their refurbs at 20% off MSRP, this is an additional 20% off on top of that.

Have you ever bought refurbished?? They are as good as new or even better as far as I'm concerned.

I was wondering when the Mark III refurbs would show up in the store. I was there yesterday and they weren't there. Great price. I just wish I could afford it right now.

I am not questioning the merchandise or the condition of the merchandise at all but a comparison between a brand new price vs. a refurbished price is not quite..... well, the same and fair, right

? That's all the point I am making.

I bought a refurbished 5D II. The only apparent difference was the word 'Refurbished' on the box. This is a great price, but I'll hold out until it's in the $1500 range. Maybe two years.

Great price! I'd hit BUY if I didn't have one already. I wonder if these are the light-leaked versions. No big deal.

Yea it was DOA w 5D MK II - stuck on sensor clean.
You would think they had better QC the second time.

And they didn't replace it or fix it?? So you're saying you got stuck with a DOA camera? And you don't think this happens with new cameras??

Shame on you. You guys should have paid much much more for the "new" model that comes with a different box....apparently it somehow works better than the refurb model, don't ask me how though.

What a great deal, especially if you live in a nontaxed or low tax state. Too bad the timing is off for me or I would tell my sis/bro in Hawaii to buy it and ship it to me.

Still a good deal with tax, about $200-400 less than what they're going for used with no warranty. But, yes, no tax would be a treat!

Are they giving a full year's warranty or is it 90 days?
