I'm selling this zoom lens as I have now shifted to using more primes to cover this range.
The lens is perfect and includes the hard case, hood and lens cap.

Price is $1,075.00 and I will ship insured anywhere in continental U.S.

Hi Steve,

I have this lens also and it it is a beauty. Back when it came out people couldn't get one fast enough, although we were dismayed by the price. Everyone said don't worry prime nikon glass will hold its value if you ever want to sell it. Over the past year or so many have wanted to sell the this lens and other prime glass for a variety of reasons. I have noticed nikon DOES NOT retain its value. You are basically offering the lens for half its original price and yet there is no interest. Based upon your profile of equipment, I assume this lens has been very well cared for. Mine is in pristine condition and I would just as soon keep it as a paper weight then give it away. Sorry I picked your post to vent. At least you get a bump.
