They say 2/3th of the new price, at least I think that is/was the rule.

I suspect bigmas are easy to sell for a decent price. There's one on Ebay right now in Canada going for £648; new they're well over £1000, so...

I tend to agree with Stef and Bret.
Bigmas are expensive, well-regarded lenses, so it follows that the resale value will be high.
If you decide to sell and get no takers I'll swap you for a bottle of scotch and some ice cubes..

I was mearly offering a deal for 'spiders lens!
Still if he's determined to get a lighter prime, say a *300 and a decent converter then who am I to argue?
BTW I've seen the lens and it's a good deal he's offering, I just can't afford it.

I thought they ended up being alcohol related at some stage

The lens is in good condition but the tripod mount shows signs of wear with the coating coming off in several places.
I'm seriously thinking of selling mine as its getting too heavy for me to carry
