Sigma f2.8 70-200 HSM

Hello,

I've bought a Sigma f2.8 70-200mm from my friend a few weeks ago, unfortunately I have some work to be done in my new flat (basically renovate all the sash windows!) so I'm thinking about selling it.

The lens is in mint condition - I don't have internet at home yet but will try to post pictures from work in the next days or so.
I've taken only 2 pics with it, and my friend I've bought it from hasn't used it much (and sold cause upgraded to 50-135mm). I have the hood and pouch, and I think I have the box as well but it's probably still in one of the few boxes I haven't unpacked yet!

I paid £400 for it which I think was a good deal - and all I want is to recoup my money so I'd be asking for £400. (no offers, so if no one is interested I'll keep it!)

I would prefer collection in London as it's fairly big/expensive, I want to make sure the person is 100% happy with it.

So let me know if anyone is interested - any questions please pm me
thx

Took a couple of pics quickly (sorry first picture is blurry but it gives an idea):

It is this version of the lens (EX DG APO HSM):

FYI I sell it as on the first picture i.e lens + 2 caps (original) + pouch with strap + hood - the box is not included as it's folded in one of my few moving boxes and I am not planning to unpack for quite some time, I can always send it later (flattened so free of charge) if you do want it (but from memory it's not in a very good condition though))

No, its just a way of attracting attention to the item. It moves it up the recent activity list.

Hiya,

I'd be extremely interested - am in Scotland though so would need the lens to be shipped unless you happen to be in Scotland anytime soon?

Do you know how much warranty is left on the lens? Alternatively, could you give the serial number of the lens so that I could contact Sigma to enquire how warranty is left?
Have been hunting for this lens for a while now, so would be pleased as pudding if it all worked out

As mentioned above, could you post some sample pictures taken with the lens?

Thanks very much!

Regards,
Monet.
