I think chance buy used lens with some problems available. If i service lens for some money i get really working lens. And i contact with owener to local area (10 km) and i checked lens before deal. If i see what lens have phisical damage - i trying find another lens.

Looks like a good plan.

If that gets you a fully serviced and working HD lens in good condition... if... including shipping etc... then it's still a decent deal.

Here in the UK, I see the same lens can be had for around GBP £200 used in mint condition.
