Chris, I haven't dealt with him. We may not be looking at the same thing,
but it looks like reflections in the lens rather than scratches. If it is in
fact new, would the drawstring bag not be flat? I've purchased an item or
two that were new and seems like the little case was always packed in
cellophane and was flat. Regardless of the if this is a new lens or not it
does look great, however the price is approaching what one would pay for the
2.8. I know it is smaller, but wouldn't you really rather have the 2.8 if
the price is the same? Bill Barber
