K6AZ Cream of the Crop  More info | Dec 15, 2011 17:21 | #1 Ask the seller if the lens is refurbished. As most know the Canon store is running a special of 15% off refurbished lenses and bodies. They've been out of stock of just about every popular lens for the last several days. I heard of one person buying over 40 lenses on one order and I'm sure when the rebates/sales are over they will turn up here and on FM at 90% of the then current new price. This is what Canon does to mark lenses as being refurbished.

mpix345 Goldmember 2,870 posts Likes: 69 Joined Dec 2006 More info | If buying a refurbed product on the used market is a concern you can start the process by only considering items with original boxes (though some people do buy boxes). I don't care so much about buying a used/refurb, but I do think it should be disclosed up front. Used is used to me, and the current market conditions drive the price. I don't care if the seller is making $100 on a flip or losing $400 because he bought new at the peak price. That's not relevant to me.

Obviously I don't care either since I own the two refurbs I pictured. What I don't like is when these guys wipe out the inventory at the Canon store and then neglect to disclose the fact that the items they are selling are refurbs.
