I've mentioned it before and I don't know how many people actually took the advice, but Camera Canada (authorized dealer) has it in stock. With the strong US dollar, I got mine for about $270 less (with the shipping) than the list price at B&H, Adorama, etc......All you have to do is call them up and ask them to send you a Paypal invoice in US dollars.

They delivered it to me in California in about 5 days, IIRC. It comes packaged exactly the same way the US version would come. This was basically a holiday rebate without having to fill out any forms. I couldn't be happier.

I was hoping to pick it up from B&H but they're out at the moment and I don't want to pay sales tax for obvious reasons. Samy's usually has a sales tax free sale but i dont know when that is (im in Los Angeles). Anyone have any links to share?

I'd prefer a licensed dealer obviously but post what you have.
Adorama has this lens in stock ready for shipping.

I was lucky and also picked one up from Camera Canada for $1,929 US (brand new with USA warranty card) shipped to California.

Question about Camera Canada, I know they're an authorized dealer (Edit: actually now I'm not sure...Second Edit: ok ive confirmed it they're listed as Forest City Images Centre Ltd. and have the same address) but is it tricky when it comes to registering the lens with Canon USA?

No issue unless it is only for sale in Canada or has a Canada only warranty card, which only the 1D bodies have, as far as I'm aware. All other products have North America warranty cards.

I bought a 1D X and sent it in for warranty repair recently, with my Camera Canada receipt. They classified it as in warranty. I had no issues registering it with Canon USA or CPS [USA]. I also purchased a EF-M 11-24 IS from another Canadia dealer, but alas, there's no registration or warranty coverage as it's not sold in the US.

The 100-400 II should be no issue at all.
