Refurbished units go right to the Canon shop and is run through tests to check performance and specifications. I've bought the bulk of my items from them as Refurbs. The only thing I bought "new"just happened to be the only broke item too, which had to be sent to factory to be serviced under warranty. As far as buying "used" items, I'd watch the grade it gives you. I think "vg" is the lowest I'd even concider. You shouldn't have any problems with "E+" stuff. They don't give a big break on price for E+ either. Any chance of this lens going on rebate soon? That might shrink the price gap between the new and used one.
