Hey everyone, I happened upon calumet which has this lens for $329.99, $1.05 for insurance, free shipping. If you use the Bing site to access calumet, you get a 4% rebate as well, which will refund you an additional $13. Can't beat that!!

Yep, I was a bit shocked. I have been trying to buy a used one on here for weeks, but I am too slow. I am sure the price will increase $50 after the rebates expire on the 12th.

Calumet is a pretty reliable online seller. That must be a typo or something.

It sucks being here in the UK sometimes.. The cheapest that lenses is available for new is £290 or $475 ish... which is the same company that CoquetteRN bought from.

If i try ordering thro Calumet USA, it $329.99 + $80 shipping and could incure import taxes too.. :cry:

As they say... Got us over a barrel

Anyone fancy making a few dollars out of it :lol:
