Seller has no feedback. Adorama sells this for $12,499 Unless the seller thinks he's gonna get that price in bids, its got to be some kind of scam.

He's really knowledgeable. His ad refers to it as a "zoom" lens.

Too funny!! It'd be even funnier if the guy actually had one and had to sell it for $810.00!!

It's funny...a man with 2002 feedbacks actually thinks he's going to get that lens for $2245!! Another thing is that the person selling the lens shows the sale from New York, but the person is actually registered in Turkey!!

Even if the buyer never gets it, and even if he loses his money, he still got the best price ever for an EF 800mm (crop sensor effective 1280mm ;)). That's got to be worth something.


Replacing my Canon 7D, Tokina 12-24mm, Canon 17-55mm, Sigma 30mm f/1.4, 85mm f/1.4, and 150-500mm with a Panasonic Lumix FZ1000. I still have the 17-55 and the 30 available for sale.
