    hello, how are u Mick!

    I’m just wondering how is the 70-300 condition look like (any dust, etc).
    They are 3 months old or u bought it from second hand 3 months ago (any warranty left?)

    Thanks

    Hi Jarek.

    It’s absolutely spotless. There is not a speck of dust on the lens (or the body). It has only taken a few pictures. It’s 3months old from new, but to be honest it’s spent nearly all of the three months in its box. You’re getting a brand new lens for €300. My reason for sale is that I got a 135mm f2 and can’t carry that and the 70-300 in the bag at the same time. So it doesn’t get used.

    Mick.

    That’s fair enough Mick!

    I can offer you that €300 if we can meet in Galway or somewhere around or €270 and collect it from you in Dublin.
    Sorry, but i dont prefer post mails – i like to know what i pay for.

    Many thanks

    Offer preliminarily accepted and I’ll come meet you wherever you are when you get to Dublin (provided somebody else doesn’t offer me the big 300 in the meantime).

    (By the way I’ll take €550 for both lenses. These work well together)

    rgiller, I have a few other people interested in it for that price too. If they don’t take it for any reason then your €280 will secure.

    Hey for just €20more you can skip the queue and I’ll drop out to you tonight with it. Same goes for any one else reading this!

    Just been told that my offer of 270 is no good and he is goin to try and hold us all out to see how much he gets for this lens, totally unfair, be honest and tell people you are looking 300 for the bloody thing

    Ohh, I’m confused MDCPhotography. Apologies if you are insulted MDC. It’s a good lens and well worth 300. In my opinion just because you offered to drive from Derry, doesn’t entitle you to the lens for €30 less. It normally the responsibility of the buyer to arrange/pay for transport. That said I’ll offer to drive to anyone (anyone who’s nice) in the Dublin area for free.

    (Oh and I haven’t made any secrets about looking for €300 for the lens what a wierd post!?)

    You’ve accepted an offer of 270 so i think 280 is a reasonable price to go to from there. I can meet you this week

    €280 it is.
    PM sent.

    edit: Also if we are to do any justice to mcd’s rant, then technically I’ve also rejected an offer for €270 aswell 8)

    It’ll be a shame when these lenses are sold. This thread has provided a great deal of amusement.

    The 17-85 has your name all over it BM. You know it and I know it.

    Because I know you, I’ll make a special offer, valid today only & exclusive to you. Just €300.

    Seeing as you are reading this thread; you may already know (*and it’s documented – see below) that this lens is so good that if you were to take a photo of your partner without using the UV filter (supplied!) – they will be killed.
