Total cost is going to be about $500 with shipping and insurance, no 
49-72mm ring/hood (and they are HARD to find) and the lens is rated a 
'user', with coating marks on the FE, although the pic looks pretty 
good. I'm not sure that is a fang. A decent price, but not a big 
bargain. Back in '01, I bought mine in mint- condition, perfect glass, 
both caps, hood, 72mm generic cap and a generic case that's a perfect 
fit with hood for $540 delivered from Oz. Now that one for $500 
delivered today would be approaching a fang at recent prices.

I suppose that's a good price these days. This lens has always been to 
rich for my blood, anyway.

Black nose, but SC, so I don't know if it would fetch the stratospheric 
prices some Can*n FF folks were paying. Has that died down a bit? I 
bought a silver nose SC back in '01 for $230 and a MC in EX+ shape with 
case for $325. So again, this doesn't sound like a fang to me, but a 
decent deal.
