It is now only for sale on the "Clearance" page. They appear to be new ones; the price is higher than the refurbs have been. The following link is for those of you who may be interested:

If you really want a 50D there are still plenty going up for sale here / FM / eBay. Tools: 70D, 10-22, Tamron 24-70 VC, 70-300L, 135 f2L

Well, until I can afford a 5D?, that is. "?" because I can't decide Mark II or Mark III. Doesn't matter much. I can't afford either, right now.

Because you get more excellent shots and a higher keeper ratio with the improved AF of the 5D3 you'll be able to spend more quality time with her, because you'll get all the shots you want in quicker time.

It might just confuse her enough to let you get one when you can afford it.  You sir! are a genius! Perhaps I should go for the 70-200 IS USM II at the same time! If she buys this baloney, I will owe you big time.
