    What are all these crooks on Ebay going to do when these new 200mm and 300mm lenses are released and sell for half the price of what they want for there old lens.

    @Jack

    The Dollar is weak. The inflated prices on Ebay are very good if you don’t live in the United States — it’s basic economics. . it’s what happens when Americans have spent the last 30 years voting for Republicans that promise free money.
