Just to get back to the OP,
was the thread deleted, or did I go through a time warp?
Every now and again I run through the Leads to Deals section and remove any where the original items is no longer available. This keeps the items linked to as current as possible. Sometimes this pruning will mean a dead thread is removed almost immediately, sometimes it wiill be a little longer!
Best regards, John

I suppose it would depend on th yield, and the Height above Ground, but at a conservative guess - somewhere between 6000 and 13000 (in Metres). Better than an AF240Z, that's for sure.

I think anybody can sell anything at the going rate i.e. what a buyer is prepared to pay for it. There are plenty of sellers on here who have benefited from rising lens prices and one or two people seem to sell rather a lot of lenses, I'm guessing not always at the price they bought them at.

If you can turn a profit, fair play, a pay off for for the speculative endeavour. IMHO
Lurking is shirking.!
