I bought my 24-105mm out of a 5D Mark II kit and it had never been used. I probably paid $800 for it back then, but that's been a few years. Looking at how the market's been flooded by them in the past few years, you can pick them up for around the $600 mark now.
That being said, I've taken so many great photos with it that I don't really care if they've drop in price somewhat. It was great on my crop body but really started to shine on my full frame.
