In the wake of the 24-70 II announcement, at least a few of us are thinking of buying the original 24-70mm. I just thought I'd give a heads-up to those of you in the UK that there is a newly listed Canon refurbished lens on eBay for £900

Personally I ended up buying a second hand copy for £835. The next lowest price for a new copy seems to be £930 from Amazon, but those are grey imports.
