It was me who bought that F*250-600 last week. Got it yesterday and are very pleased so far. The auction showed a lens with some scratches and had a pretty bad description. So it was a little risky, but the price of $3600 was to tempting. A good part of the scratches on the white paint was in fact dirt and cleaned up very well. There are still some scratches, but nothing to bother about. The glass is perfect. No scratches at all. The dent in the hood is alredy fixed. I have a friend with a car body shop and he helped me. This hood is rock solid and made of 3mm metal sheets and not easy to fix, but it is in good condition now :-)
The tripod mount is missing, but I have access to a CNC milling machine so I will have one made. I have to decide on aluminum or stainless steel, but I suppose I can manage that.
