->> Folks,
I was skimming through Ebay this morning and came across the following item. (Canon EF 200mm F1.8) Since I have one, I know how much they go for. This lens in question is WAY under priced and it seems to good to be true.
Check it out and see what all of you think.

->> Internet was turned on again yesterday, so I was able start uploading pics again.
If you call being shot at with a shotgun being roughed up, I guess that counts!
Quite something being here at the moment... |

->> Fact is the guy listed it wrong. Here's the explination of the conditions:
Used
An item that has been used previously. The item may have some signs of cosmetic wear, but is fully operational and functions as intended. This item may be a floor model or store return that has been used. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.
For parts or not working
An item that does not function as intended and is not fully operational. This includes items that are defective in ways that render them difficult to use, items that require service or repair, or items missing essential components. See the seller's listing for full details.
If the AF isn't working then he should change the condition to "For parts or not working". |
