So you think price of the 50D is as low as it's gonna get?

Just curious as to opinions (based on past instances of new models replacing old ones) as to whether $929 (new) is as low as it is gonna get. Doesn't seem low enough to me considering you can get a 60D for $70 more. Thoughts?

I just posted a deal on here, I got my 50d with a pixma printer for $1200 , u get a $400 mail in rebate, then sell the printer. I unloaded my printer same day for $250. so I got a brand new 50d for $550 bucks
my buddy stuck to his guns and got $375 for his printer.so his 50d was only $425.

How long ago did you do this? B&H's website still shows this promotion, but Canon's site doesn't. Knowing my luck, I'll get stuck with a printer i don't need. lol.

unless you want 2nd hand, it really won't go much lower, i'd say $100 absolute max, you might just as well buy one now.

The 40D got down to about $900 new and then there were just no more new ones in stock. If we are talking used, well the 10D is now pretty cheap. Eventually I think they will all be worth about $200

rebate valid on purchases from october 1st through december 31st 2010. I was totally happy with $550, but my buddy getting 425 makes me wish I didn't sell the printer so eagerly. but I have no problem with $550 at all!

They bottomed out about six months ago at around $850. At this point I don't think you will see them get much lower before they're gone. They're great for the price, I picked one up when they bottomed out for dedicated use in my copystand.

I purchased my 50D +28-135mm lens from Dell last year using Bing CB on Black Friday. After selling the lens and getting rebate, it was $750.

I would think that someone will have a pretty good close-out sale on 50D this black Friday as well.
