Hi all

Selling due to an impending upgrade, I would like to offer my Nikon fit Sigma 70-200 f2.8 lens for sale.

The lens is 11 months old, and has obviously been used - although I take great care of my kit and as such it has never been knocked about or scratched and has always been protected by a filter (not included). When not in use this lens has been packed away in a very padded case.

I have checked ebay for recently sold items and the prices seem to vary between approx £370 and £485, so due to the excellent condition of mine - I would like to offer this lens for £400 with insured delivery included.

Included in sale:

• Lens (obviously!)
• Tripod collar
• Sun hood
• Original boxes
• Sigma padded lens case & carrying strap
• English Instructions & International warranty card (25 months warranty remaining)
• Original sales reciept showing purchase price of £549.00 from Microglobe UK (bought from London so not a grey import)

I am based in South London although work in the City so could possibly meet during weekdays within 15 minutes travel from St Pauls.

Full specs:

Clicky pic for bigger (caution - 2.3Mb file)...



As mentioned above the Hoya filter pictured is not included, nor is the desk, phone, the dual monitors, keyboard/mouse, post-it notes or my stress cow

Additional pics by request.

I would prefer a personal cheque (lens will be dispatched when cheque has cleared) or direct CHAPS bank transfer, cash if in person.

Regards,
Ross

<edit> Price reduced to £400 delivered

Have I overpriced this? I know you can get brand new grey imports on ebay for not much more $$$, although you could get stung for import tax...

It really is in excellent condition though

I'd say it's about right. I paid £420 for mine in mint condition secondhand. They were all about that price.

I agree, I think it's a fair price. Lots of 2nd hand quality lenses fetch close to the new price, and I think you'll spend a long time looking for quality used gear at half price.

Well the RRP of this lens is £799, so it's very close to being half price - just not half price of what I paid for it

There's no way in the world I'm letting this go for £275.

Price reduced to £400 delivered, this has to go now as the replacement arrived on Friday.
