Does anyone know where I can find a quality used 600mm or 800mm canon super-telephoto lenses? I am needing to add some super focal length to my arsenal of lenses. Can you help?

The Sigma 800mm and 300-800mm zoom are well-regarded, but no high-quality lens of this size is going to be cheap. I have an old Tokina 800mm f/8 manual focus, which is pretty good when stopped down a little, but that does make it slow. I got that on eBay for £60, but they normally sell for more than twice that if you find one. Mark.
