aSavings via eBay offers the factory-refurbished Canon EF-S 55-250mm f/4.0-5.6 IS Telephoto Lens, model no. 2044B002, for $149 with free shipping. That's the lowest total price we could find for a refurb by $26; however, we saw a new unit for $5 less in December. (New units cost at least $32 more today.) A 90-day Canon warranty applies.
