The seller's eBay'ing strategy is clearly counter-productive, and
may bring him no bids. However, the $350 price is not out of line.
Here is some pricing data from two reliable sources.
- B&H catalog (June 98): $289 for cond. 8+, $350 for cond. 9
- KEH catalog (July 97): $310 for BGN, $379 for EX.
It's unclear whether the tripod mounts are included with any of the
above lenses -- these are often absent from this particular zoom.
This is NOT an endorsement of the above auction, or a recommendation
to bid on this item.
