for those not aware, Henry's has a student discount plan. http://www.henrys.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/PageDisplay?dest=student/logon.jsp&storeId=10001

It's 10% off some pretty handy things:
# Any new Sigma lens
# Used Equipment
# Flashes
# Lighting
# Filters
# Bags
# Tripods
and more.

Here's the bad news:
I have never managed to find something on which they will honour it.
Ever.

All used gear, sigma lenses, flashes, etc. are apparently already on sale, regardless of if they are marked that way on the tag, website, or any where else, so they refuse to honour it.

Has anyone here actually succeeded in getting them to discount anything under this?

Film and Film Chemicals are usually not on sale, and qualify.

If you look at the website, would you have any reason to think that any of these lenses:

(other than the 100-300) was on sale?
or that 100% of their used gear is always on sale?

If they don't want to discount it then don't, but it irritates me that they advertise one way, but clearly have no intention whatsoever of following through on it.
If film & chemicals is all they want to discount...then only offer a discount on film and chemicals.
Don't claim that it's on all sorts of other gear.
