How much minimum is this lens Brand new almost

Sigma 50-500mm f/4.5-6.3 APO DG OS HSM for Pentax

I got 5 lenses in package deal with K3 camera for 2500.
I sold K3 already as I have K70 and K-X (very happy with both)

I plan to sell one more lens to bring down my cost.

This lense is in very good condition.

It confusing because even though I google I couldn't find any retailer selling it.

I dont want to sell on ebay. I use my local listing site to sell it.

As far I can see it OS and latest one.
Can someone point me to link of its review for Pentax version

Thanks

I believe the Pentax K-mount version of that lens is discontinued now. B&H sells the latest version of it in Canon, Nikon, Sony/Minolta and Sigma mounts for US$1,659...

The user reviews are here:

Average price shown in the reviews section is US$1,527...

One of the most suggested ways to check for the price of an item is to look on eBay - irrespective of wether you intend to sell it there.
The catch is: don't look at buy-it-now prices, as they're usually inflated.
Just keep an eye on auctions and note down the price the items sell at, once the bidding process is over.

Set the search to "completed" items.

The earlier version (which I believe had the old rough-coated finish) has an average price of about $850 in our reviews section, but if the OP's lens is indeed the newer version in K-mount, it's worth more than that (IMHO)...

The "Bigma" in all of its versions is highly regarded on this site and it is a pity that it is discontinued in Pentax-K.

Sounds that way. List it on the Marketplace here and you'll find a buyer in no time!

And check the prices of those that actually sold.

It's a very good lens, better than the 150-500.
