   | It would really help if you gave the full stats on it.

   | 70-80 GBP according to eBay. But most of those appear to have boxes, hoods and caps. _________________

 If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.

   | Yep, which means it'll go for more, but gives no actual indication of price for the lens. Perhaps as amazon is selling it for about £180 brand new, £70 or £80 second hand is a good estimate but I'd expect both end caps and box for that.

   | Watching auction fever kick in on eBay can be quite entertaining. Several times I've seen people pay more second hand than they could brand new, and others pay more for faulty goods than quality second hand.     _________________

   | F mount Bratty, F Mount.
 I think all DX lenses are AF-S.

   | eBay is annoying me at the moment, they've changed categories for the search filters so I can't easily look at say Wide or Tele lenses.   _________________
