About a year ago I sold an 85mm f-2 for $305.  Some people want them really
bad. /jim

I've seen 2 in 2 separate stores here sell for about $130-$140 (one might be
still be
available), so you're right in the ballpark. Barry's answer below makes
sense,
though, because if you decide to sell the 85, and you do it on ebay, you
will find
someone who will gladly feel comfortable overpaying more towards the $200
mark. If
they're happy, then the profit will be nice :)
