When's the next Canon Rebate coming???

[BoneDoc]

I would like to get myself the 70-200 II IS, but 2500 is a bit steep for now. Do you guys know when they're going to have another round of rebate?

Thanks

Josh

I don't keep track, but I'd guess in the fall, Sept or Oct and into the holiday season. Someone else who has kept track of the average rebate timing could tell you better.

Canon has been running nearly continuous rebates for two years. I bought a refurb 70-200mm 2.8 MK II when they had their 15% off sale which put it at just under $1700. Its perfect, and I've been pleased with it.

You have to be very quick to find it in stock and at 15% off. I waited 6 months before I snagged one.

You can sign up with canon price watch and if you carry a smart phone with you, it should not be too hard to grab a refurb when they are available. Unfortunately there are not refurbs of the great white (300 F2.8 and up).
