You would think they would be. I know that Canon checks all the refurbs out when they send them out.


But the one thing they don't check out are the excessive compulsive people they sell to. Which makes me wonder, how will Canon ishonor itsreturn policy? I have seen dozens of threads that could been filed under "Did I get a good copy of XXXX lens?". Most of the time it is just buyers fear, and weeks later they love the lens. Occasionally the lens doesn't perform as they think it should and they want to send it back. This is one reason I like B&H, returningis very easy. I can't sayB&H a "no questions asked policy" but one of the reasons you can use to send it back on their questionnaire is "I just changed my mind", so that's good. I wonder if the "I just changed my mind" option would fly with Canon.
