I hope you already picked it up because they are now out of stock. I guess they sold the one they had :)

It will probably be for sale in the sale marketplace :rolleyes:. Isn't that what alot of people do buy refurbish and then sell it to try to make a buck.

I think refurbs offer a good deal for consumer...dont' make a lot of sense to me to buy it just to try to make 30 dollars not worth the hassle IMHO.

It's in stock again, however it states that there is "no warranty".

i bought one earlier today. i called and talked to the guy, he indicated it came with a 90 day warranty.

also picked up a 10-22, at the old price $660 after rebate.

i'm in the 1-day delivery radius, so hopefully they are waiting for me tomorrow afternoon.

~mike

edit: well, i guess they were sold out right before i placed my order. so no 50mm 1.4 for me yet. but, i still have the 10-22 to look forward to.

So they do come with 90 day warranty? I ordered from adorama instead just because they stated this 90 days clearly, oh well, I could have saved $15.

i called to ask if they came with the front/rear caps. yes
the guy then stated that they also include a 90 day warranty.

like every other store, when the refurbs show up, they are always in short supply, so you should probably be happy that you were able to pick one up a $100 off retail. i was ready to pull the trigger on the adorama one, until i decided to call.
