Judging by the asking prices in the For Sale forum it would appear 24-105's are getting cheaper by the minute. I'm seeing prices drop routinely into the $750-$775 range even for newer date codes.
What's up with that?

K6AZ Cream of the Crop  More info | Feb 23, 2012 00:53 | #8 The 5D2 kits were under $2800 for some time so there is a flood of them on the market. They're great lenses so for someone looking to buy better do it quick since the deal on the kits is over. If you're holding one to sell I'm sure the price will go back up once the flood is over.
