canon L lens

hey all, i was offerd a canon 24-105 L f/4 USM lens for $666
you can see my gear list below and you tell me, is it worht buying in my case?
i have just got myself a studio lighting kit and starting to learn portrait and product photography would this be a good buy for me?
i need help ASAP it might go fast! :S

that's a very good price...

That is a good price. Make sure it's legit.

It's sort of an all purpose lens, so you could use it for portraits.

assuming it's in perfect working condition (no scratches, etc.)... you should get it and if you don't like it, you can always sell it back here (and even make money off of it)...

just saying....

also its been very lightly used and the person selling it is very carefull of her gear and just isnt using it.....

What sort of condition is it in? Is it a local seller? If legit and in good condition that's a pretty decent price.

oh wow what fast answers i got thanks all..... so it would be a good portrait lens? would it replace any of the ones i already have?

lol now im getting excited and jitty looool

It will most likely replace your 18-135

b&h price (new) is $1099

here in POTN, it still sells from 800 to 1000

You'll be hard pressed to find it that low again, the best you usually see now is ~$800 - $825 used. So like the person said a few posts above, if you don't like it, you most likely could make money on the deal! To answer your portrait question -- yes, I used to have one, but swapped it for a 135mm -- and did many senior portraits with it and even studio shots.

or you can buy it at $666, then I'll buy it from you for $700, then I'll sell it here for $825...

j/k

but seriously, it's a no brainer....

hmmmm now im more excited!..... i think im gona go for it !!! yayyy i could dance!

If the deal is legit and the lens is in good shape, jump on it. You'll be able to resell it for more than that if you don't like it. Or pass the generosity of the original seller on to someone else and still break even.
