I bought a refurbished Canon 6D II with a 24-105 kit lens from Canon in December for $1299 and could not be happier. It was the "Holiday Special". Sold out several times but I'd check often and once it came back in stock I hit the buy button. Both units look and perform like new. What I thought was interesting is while the Holliday Special was $1299, they listed the body only at $1599. Doh! Love me some Christmas.
