[SOLD] FS: RARE Sigma 70-200mm 2.8 ex apo dg

if you have been looking for this lens you know it is hard to find and only rearely becomes available.

i purchased the lens 2 months ago in like new condition. caps, zipper padded case with strap, tripod mount and box all included. it is still like new. i bought the new DA*50-135 to compare and to decide which i wanted to keep as i will not keep both. the decision has been made simply on size and weight of the sigma -- i have some back problems and the sigma's weight isn't easy for me now at my greatgrandmotherly age!!!!!

Product Description
This telephoto zoom lens has a large maximum aperture of f2.8 which remains constant throughout the zoom range and it is optimized for digital SLR cameras.

Details
Filter Size 77 mm
Aperture
Minimum Focus Range 70.9 in
Magnification Telephoto (65 to 600mm)
View Angle 12.3 - 34.3 degrees
Groups/Elements 17 Elements in 14 Groups
Diameter 3.4 in
Length 7.2 in
Weight 44.8 oz

a used 77mm Tiffen UV filter goes with the lens.

the last one to go on ebay was 9/29 for the buy-it-now price of $1300.

i am asking $1250 plus shipping. well packaged it weighs 5 1/4 lbs and would come from 93422 (california) so you can figure what shipping would be with you prefered method of shipping.

we have been ebay members since 2000 with a 99.7 rating, 1 neg from a seller in 2002 that we bought a camera from -- seller did not have it in hand to send, he had to order it and did not like having it mentioned in feedback!!!

the lens will go on ebay later this week if not sold here.

This is the non-macro version correct? Don't want it if it is the macro one.

I'll take it, I hope you accept PayPal so I can charge it to my AMEX. Would appreciate if you posted pics just so I can be reassured I know exactly what I am getting for $1250!

Now I am officially broke.

Please PM me with payment details.
