[EXPIRED] Barely used FA 31 Limited($670 shipped)

[Steven Yampolsky]

This is my second FA31. It's been used occasionally since the purchase back in May 2007. There are a few minor scratches on the lens cover and some clear coat peeling at the bottom rear of the lens. Other than that, the lens is immaculate.

The lens comes in original box with leather pouch.

I'll take M.O., personal check or Paypal. With personal check there will be delay in shipping until the check clears.

Sorry, but I can only ship within continental US.

$670 includes shipping and insurance.

Can you post some pictures of the lens? Thanks.

Is this OK?

Are the marks on the lens body, which are visible in the last picture, what you are talking about when you mean the clear coat is peeling? What's causing this? Thanks.

That's correct: the peel is in one spot at the bottom of the lens and it's in clear coat layer only. Black paint is still there it just looks like a regular black instead of shiny black that Limiteds have. I noticed the peel about a month after I bought it and since I use this lens rarely, chances are it was there from day one. The peel has not spread anywhere since then.
