Why I just saw one on the auction site. A snip at USD7000 BIN (so you can
guess who is selling it!) which is probably a much "safer" bet than trying
to break into Walt's safe.
OTOH Graham offered his to the list a while back at a bargain price
(certainly a steal compared to jonequinn).
And I could be persuaded to part with my 35-80/2.8-3.8 for a fraction of
jonequinn's price. Not 50%, not 25%, not even 10%, but to you 2% incl.
shipping. A very good performer, even if it is only a Tamron SP :-)

An alternative might be the 35-80/2.8, but the chances of getting one of
those is just about nill. I'm thinking about locking mine up in the safe.
