Re: Refurb, or New??

Ha!  You learn something new every day.  Yes, my refurb has a small pin hole right after the serial number.

Chaplain Mark,

All the refurbed Canons I have had have a tell tale mark on the nameplate on the bottom. A small pin hole at the end of the serial number. No pin hole, it's new.

Some used cameras I have bought have had the tell tale pinhole.
