I recently bought a Zuiko 85-250 and was disappointed to see that the
"two small marks on front element" were in fact a pair of 1/16"
scrapes on the front element (I had expected fine scratches from
overzealous cleaning). I haven't yet shot a test roll to see what
effect the marks have, and I suspect the seller willrefund my money
if I ask, but how difficult/expensive would it be to simply replace
the front element?
FWIW, my intended major use for this lens is as a zoom for sports and
duck hunting shots.
