Why is the Refurbished EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS ($499) Still In-Stock?


One oddity in the Canon refurb sale is the refurbished EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM for $499.00, which is strangely still in-stock, despite its hot 57% discount from regular price.

We think this is because Canon has messed up the listing image on their site, showing a picture of the non-L EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM instead. (Many readers have emailed us to tell us we’ve made a mistake and that the deal is not for the L-version.)

The deal is indeed for the L-version of the lens: you can confirm this by looking at the title, description, and specifications for the lens. Also contrast with the refurbished non-L lens which has its own (separate) listing. Take advantage of this deal at the Canon Direct Store — which is only available because many don’t realize this error.



Refurb Clearance: EF 11-24L $1499, EF 100L $499, Extenders $199


The Canon Direct Store has discounted a number of EF lenses to clearance prices as part of their newest refurbished sale. The biggest discount is on the EF 11-24mm f/4L USM, which is reduced $1200 to $1499.00.

For the EF 100mm Macro, don’t let the wrong image confuse you — the refurbished listing is indeed for the “L” version, and is available for only $499.00.

Finally, the refurbished EF extenders are a steal at $199 a piece, and well below the used market price.
