If I order this lens today while it is out of stock will I pay the shown price, or I will get charged for the regular price?

Thank you for e-mail. If it is possible to order today, to ensure the stock. You do not need to worry.

It is gray market and you are not able to get a warranty in the US. I sent an email to Circuit Street (the seller) to confirm and they verified it is an import. Unfortunately for me I had purchased already since I saw zero mention of that in the actual listing, whereas every other gray market/import listing on Amazon calls that out. Incredibly deceptive, and now I need to wait 1-2 weeks while Amazon processes my cancelled order and gives me my Amazon credit back before I can go and purchase a legit lens from another seller.

You would need to check the Tamron website for details. There was a $100 mail in rebate when I bought my lens. Tamron was very quick about getting the rebate to me.

I would just love some sort of estimated date. Just be up front with us, even if it is a month off. I ordered the black 12-50mm kit. The sad part is, I see so many people getting them from local dealers. The ONLY reason I ordered from Amazon is because I had a really good gift card balance. If I could cash out my amazon gift card balance and go to a local dealer I sure as heck would in a heart beat~

Im not selling this, lens. I recently purchased one and it was new. I think somehow this link got sent to the wrong person.

This pricing scheme mostly has to do with a camera special. The price always skyrockets to an exorbitant amount when you are offered a good discount on select lenses when you buy a certain camera(s). After the special is over, the prices go back to normal.$399 was just too ridiculous. The person or program that adjust these prices is whack if they/it thinks someone will pay 25% more than the MSRP. (I wonder how many people actually did... ::facepalm::)

Talked to Sony Customer Service yesterday, and they mentioned that the lens will be available by the end of the month (around the 20th), so that the bundle may be available around the same time. However they could not confirm this.

need to purchase the lens in conjunction with a Nikon DSLR or package. When going through checkout, at the next to last page, it asks you for the promo code. If it doesn't take it, make sure that it hasn't already been applied. You should see $100 in the "gift card and promotional" fund, and it asks you whether you want it applied to your purchase (check box). I purchased my D3100 with the standard 18-55 lens, added the 55-200, and got it for $96. Great deal. Total cost of the package, camera, two lenses, case and DVD instructional video's (also free) $700. unbeatable.

I've had mine for almost a year and it works perfectly. My favorite lens thus far. As others have said, it's not used unless you're buying from a 3rd party seller that has it listed as used. Buying this lens directly from Amazon should give you a brand new, perfect condition lens.

Different vendors sell items at different prices depending on their inventories. I am satisfied with the lens it came repacked in a box with all the labeled items and it is brand new. I would buy it again at $700 any day if i needed another one. Best of luck on your decision. :)

I bought from Amazon, but a 3rd party seller, 17th Street Studio. My lens arrived in perfect new condition, and was packaged very well. Also, this lens is awesome!!

Well the Kit is out today at J&R;, Adorama, and B&H;, lets hope the body isn't far behind. Im not wasting 100 dollars on another kit lens.

As others have said, it depends on if it is a 'grey market' lens. I bought mine on Amazon and found out after I received it and tried to register it that it was grey market. Just make sure you register your lens as soon as you receive it. Amazon was very good about refunding immediately when I reported it and returned it. The fulfiller on Amazon that sold me the grey market one was Another Deal.

Yes when? I waiting for this 28 days and nothing. So what next?. I check B&H; and they have in stock but with 55-200mm lens kit so I think we have to wait.

I ordered this lens for my daughter for Christmas and it is new in original packaging. The 'additional' components to the package deal (like the filters, lens cloth, etc.) were in the Amazon package itself - not in with the lens. Hope this is helpful.

This is a grey market item. Canon will not offer any warenty. I have one and have had no issue with the lens for a year.
