When I was trying to sell one of mine it was clear that the condition and hood were very important factors. I ended up selling my better condition copy with matching original hood - the other copy (optically as good, but no hood and a few cosmetic marks) had very little interest.
Price will depend on who wants one at the time and how quickly you want to sell, but I'd say that a starting price of between £600-700 for a top condition copy (with hood), but be prepared for much lower offers.

That's what I am afraid of. Fortunately, I do not have a reason to hurry with the sale, so maybe I will wait for good offer.
Thanks for the advice.

I might sell my FA85 lens soon, but I don't know what price should I ask? I tried to look on Classified adverts for previous deals, but couldn't find any. I saw someone suggested 600£ for A*85 F1.4, so FA version should be more expensive.
The lens is in great condition, only hood had some schratches.
