I ordered one of these from ebay:

Was like USD 19 with free shipping to Australia.

Be interested to hear about it when you get it.



Quote:Hope yours is in good condition. We have one stupid camera shop here in Melbourne that had a 300 2.8 (non-IS) that looked like it had been rolled down a mountain. Paint scraped off heavily from every where and they said it was an "ex demo" and the price they quoted was around USD7000 at the time (AUD 8000)! I had to ask them why anyone should pay $8000 when a brand new 300 2.8 IS was around $4000 online. Sadly the prices like that over here in Melbourne.



The condition of the one I got was "well used". Lots of paint missing around the tripod mount, and chips in paint elsewhere. A new 300mm f/2.8 IS I here is ~US$5800 (best street price) and the one I got was about 1/3 that. Even a Sigma is substantially more....
