DA 55-300 plm

for sale, an absolutely minty copy of the 55-300 PLM. Comes with box, original lens hood, original front and rear caps. Worldwide sale.

This is an absolutely minty copy, as good as new.
Bought it some time ago, with the idea of using it with the K-1.

Ended up using it only once, and that was to test it on the K-1 to make sure it works and works fine.

And it does work fine on the K-1.
AF is fast and snappy, just as described by many users here.

Asking SGD400 obo (include PayPal fees exclude shipping).

Depending on exchange rate, SGD400 is around USD292 to USD298 thereabouts.

Given this is a lightweight lens (whose image quality punches way above what anyone can ever ask of it), i think shipping should be quite reasonable

PM me to check on potential shipping charge and any other queries you might have.

What Returns Policy do you have in case the sale needs to be reversed?

If buyer received an item that is not as described (ie, i lied or was less than candid in describing its conditions etc), buyer can return (with shipping on buyer).

(But if buyer damaged it in course of opening package and testing item, then no seller can or should be held responsible for that).

Interested buyers can go check on the feedback i have.

Have always described items as clearly as i know it (even when it is something to my own detriment), and i pride myself on that, despite the encounters i had on forum, with sellers who did not describe as candidly as should have.

What's weird is for some reason your FS posts aren't formatted in the usual fashion - look at other listings and you will see what I mean.

Based on what i am aware, USA has a threshold of USD800 before the tax hits.

There was a thread on this aspect of things, not too long ago >>

Thanks! That's helpful. The lens is tempting but I'm not sure I want to spend money on it right now while I am playing around with Sony FF and waiting for the Monster adapter. It is useful to know what the situation is for the future however.

yes, i noticed that, but none the wiser on why so.

I mean, when i started a new For Sale thread, those are the only "preset fields" i see and i will fill 'em up accordingly.

Anything else, will out it in the main text.

I see what the problem is - when you create a listing on a mobile device, the form used isn't nearly as comprehensive as is the one provided when using a personal computer.
