Thanks for posting this, OP. I've been keeping an eye on the 100mm macro, so I pulled the trigger when this $50 mail-in rebate came up. Bought from Adorama through eBay.
Why through eBay?
I have been doing searches for the 100mm f2.8L on eBay for the last couple of weeks or so. Then as this rebate offer came along, eBay offers me up to 4X eBay Bucks or 8% of purchase price, for a limited time. That's $71.92 credit for the $899 purchase. Stack that with the $50 mail-in rebate, and we're in the ballpark of used 9+ lenses in the market. With mfg warranty, to boot.
I don't believe this is an accident on eBay's part. This is the 2nd time this has happened to me in the last 6 months. I guess their marketing algorithm software does some pretty good data mining.
