Amazon has 2 left in stock. 999.99. I buy almost all of my lenses at Amazon. They have an excellent return policy. and very good prices. Side note. Also have this lens and love it on my 40D.

$999.99 for the kit lens?

[john_wolf2]

Amazon sells it for for $176 and says it ships in one or two months? Anyone else?

i thing DeLoyd is talking about the ef-s17-55f2.8.

Try calling B&H. They are probably out of stock there as well, but in my experience they get these lenses pretty frequently. My better half ordered one at the store, and it shipped 1 week later, exactly as promised by the salesman.

 

If nothing else, they will be scrupulously honest about when the order should ship.

I have one you can buy, make me an over, barely used with hood and UV filter. I'm in

NY/NJ. I have an ebay account with >120 pos feedback.

I looked all over for one and was told by local store here that they are being put in the XSi kits and will not be sold individually until the XSi demand cools.

Thanks, Bob. That makes sense.

 

Ben, I'll check with my daughter on used. I think she'd prefer new.
