B&H Photo Video | Digital Cameras, Camcorders
Digital cameras, all other cameras and everything photographic from Adorama Camera

There are others, but those are the main two. You won't find them much cheaper elsewhere. If you do try another site, research it on resellerratings.com first. If you don't, you'll regret it.

What do you guys have to say about this one?
I know it's cheaper than the Tamron's mentioned above, but I've always been told to stick with Canon if I can.
I know the lens is refurbished and that's probably why it's cheaper, but what isn't refurbished now a days anyways?

Nvm I read up on that lens I posted about, and it's not good.
But the
Canon EF 100-300mm f/4.5-5.6 seems like a better alternative.

I'm a bit weary of Sigma4Less. They sold me my 10-20mm and it ended up having less warranty than it should've. Ultimately I guess it hasn't mattered.

Everyone else I know has only good things to say about them though...

I never bought from them directly, but my 70-200 I have came from them. It has the warranty card for 4 or 5 years with it.
