    Boom. Scored a 24-70. Thanks for the notification. In the grand scheme of things it doesn’t matter, but I was charged for shipping when I thought it said free shipping.

      Excellent, nice snag. Too bad about the shipping. 🙁

    Snagged a 70-200 before you posted this due to the email system. I am torn…I am super excited but my wallet is crying.

      No, the free shipping code expired yesterday I think.

    I just tried to order something and it was a no go.

    Someone can thank Amazon’s strange policy of not doing a price match on their own pricing within the return period of a 70-200 IS II. Got mine last year at full price with rebate, but then a few weeks later the price dropped to $2099 plus the additional $300 rebate. So packaged mine back up when they wouldn’t credit me the difference. The lens was tack sharp. Luckily, the replacement copy I received was just as good. I knew my return would find a good home.

    Sold OUT

  13. May 9, 2014 at 5:54 pm EDT

    Do they come in “refurbished” box? Any other special marking on the lens itself? Thanks.

    1. May 9, 2014 at 6:23 pm EDT

      They come in a white box, with a red dot on the lens mount flange (not visible when the lens is mounted or the end cap is on.)

    Unfortunately I had signed up for notification on Canon’s website and not here. Guess what? The email never made it to my inbox for some reason

      Canon’s website notification system doesn’t work, which is why we have ours. 🙂

  16. May 9, 2014 at 6:39 pm EDT

    Missed it again, at least my wallet is happy!

    Almost placed an order for EF 400 f/5.6. Went through the check out process and it came back saying “Out of stock”. Looks like I missed by a min or less. Hopefully another 15% sale will show up with it in stock over the next few months. Thank you CPW for keeping us updated as soon as items get into stock.

      Sorry to hear you just missed out. 🙁 Yes, you have to be really fast with these things.

    Hey, do you think there is a chance of them coming back in stock?

    1. CanonPriceWatch
      May 9, 2014 at 11:47 pm EDT

      The sale ends Monday. I’d say the chances are slim, this was probably the big restock. But there might be a few lenses on or before Monday. Perhaps the 5D Mark III will restock as well.

    Thanks CPW, I got some great deals this time. I’ve learned from past mistakes and barely snagged one before they sold out. The only thing I forgot was the TCs I’ve been waiting for!

      Great, you’re welcome!

    purchased ef 100-400 Friday evening but it got cancelled over the weekend. apparently they tried to call me for verification but I didn’t pickup. No missed call though on my cell. Pretty weird how this thing happens.

      Looks like they’re undergoing “scheduled site maintenance”, according to their page.

        hopefully they come back up with some stocks… lol.. 😛

    The lenses are 15% off again… I hope I can score a 24-70 and 70-200 this time.

    Do you think there might be a restock again?

    I complained about not getting free shipping earlier, but at least Canon direct is fast. Ordered my 24-70 ii refurb late Friday and it is on a truck for delivery to me today!

    I have received my Canon 17-40 Refurbished today. I heard many great comments about refurb lenses from Canon and actually I was dissapointed with the QC. Because the lens came dirty and dusty. I had to clean it and hopefully the glass seems OK but the lens cap has a lot of scratches and permanent stains.

    And also I was disappointed about customer service in Canon store too. They shipped my lens after 7 days. I asked them why my order is still seems in warehouse after 6 days and they answered “…An estimated shipping date and time is not available…” I wrote them back and said I want to cancel my order and they answered, “I regret orders can not be changed or cancelled once submitted. “. Hopefully they shipped next day.
