There are only eleven copies left in-stock of the refurbished RF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM, which has appeared for the first at the Canon Direct Store for only $2064.65 (after 15%-off).
This first availability is likely a year’s supply of refurbished lenses, and we think this will be a very coveted (and hard to find) refurb from this point on. Don’t miss out!
We’re surprised to see the refurbished RF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM ($2064.65) and RF 24-70mm f/2.8L IS USM ($1758.65) still in-stock at the Canon Direct Store. This is the first time the lenses have been available refurbished, and there is currently a 15%-off refurbished sale — both lenses have been selling briskly since they were first listed at midnight.
Refurbished lenses have a 1-year Canon USA warranty, and L-lenses come with all the expected accessories (caps, hood, and lens pouch) — purchase with confidence. The Canon Direct Store does collect tax, but even when adding tax this is still well below the best historic prices.
We’ve been told in the past that most refurbished lenses are store returns that have been re-qualified by Canon, so it’s likely they’ve built up quite the stockpile of refurbished inventory of these two lenses over the last year. It’s rare that they have so many copies available at once, so this is a great opportunity to buy before these refurbished lenses become scarce (and a game to find in-stock).

The Canon Direct Store is stocking the refurbished RF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM and RF 24-70mm f/2.8L IS USM for the first time, along with two mirrorless bodies and a TS-E lens. This is eligible for the currently running 15%-off refurbished sale! This is a super hot price and we’re sure these will go quick, do not miss out!
Two popular items are now back in-stock via our street price program. The RF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM ($2599) and the EOS R ($1749.00) are available from Canon authorized dealers, with a 1-year Canon USA warranty, free shipping, and no sales tax is collected by the dealers.
We’re quite shocked to see that as of this morning, the Canon instant rebates (instant savings) have expired across the board. We saw that the previous “Black Friday” rebates were set to expire on November 30th, but it’s generally been Canon’s practice to extend the holiday rebates through the entire holiday season (and often into January), so we didn’t think Canon would actually let the savings expire. But they did.
Either they are trying some new marketing and pricing tactics, or they’re getting hit by the previously reported industry supply chain disruptions.
While B&H and Adorama have already processed the increase, there are a few stragglers who have yet to show the higher prices on a few of the lenses, but we expect this to change later today (take advantage now if you want the old pricing).
There are also other shifts happening with lens prices at the refurbished store, we’ll report on that later.
Our Black Friday street price deals have been very popular — two of our deals are already sold out, and three deals are about to follow. Due to the supply challenges this year, we don’t expect these deals to be restocked before they expire.
These are brand new items from Canon authorized dealers, with a 1-year Canon USA warranty and free shipping.

Canon’s Black Friday instant savings on RF lenses has begun. You can now save $100 on four very popular RF “L” lenses, and $50 on the RF 35mm, at authorized Canon USA dealers.
Some dealers (such as Adorama) are throwing in valuable free extras such as filters or even tripods on some lenses. We also continue to have limited stock of some lenses at our discounted street price.
