Do you guys think that this will go lower than $2,099.00 the closer it gets to Christmas or should I get it NOW! Also, What is the lowest price you guys have ever seen on this lens.

Oct 30, 2012 17:17 | #3 By itself, I doubt it, but if you package it with anything else, especially a camera, you can get a great deal. I bought the lens alongside my 5DIII and BH gave me an extra $200 off for the whole package which was nice. Gear: 5D3, 135L, Sigma 35, 50 1.8 STM, 16-35 F/4L IS, 85/1.8, Fujifilm X100T

Went ahead and got it from best buy for $2,099.00 a few days ago. B&H's sale on them ends today, so I assume that Best Buy's price will go back to the regular as well. So far I am extremely satisfied with my purchase. Next on my list is the 5DMKIII, and another speedlight. And hopefully I'll be content for awhile. The price of that lens used on eBay is CRAZY "Might as well buy new!" It's good to know that they hold there value really really well. But I do have a 30 or 45 day price match guarantee so I will still be on the lookout. Thanks for all the replies fellas! I hope someone will have a nice Christmas sale so hopefully I can get a couple hundred or so back. But if not I'm still happy. Canon 5D Mark III (Gripped), Canon 7D (Gripped), 70-200mm 1:2.8 L IS II USM, 24-105 L, 28-135mm, 75-300mm, 50mm 1.8, 580 EXII, Canon ST-E3-RT, Canon 600EX-RT X's 3 And not nearly enough time/good weather to enjoy it.

Was going to hold out for another deal but I figured it won't get much better than that for a while. Nice! not having the sales tax does indeed help! .
