I am selling a Sigma 70-300mm f/4-5.6 APO DG Macro lens for Canon. I bought it from B&H a few months ago. I haven't used it very much. There's not a scratch on it, and it looks and operates just like it was new. Comes with hood and front and rear caps. I'm selling because I bought a 70-200 f/4L. Here are some pics taken by other people with the same model lens:

Note that this is the DG version, which is the newer version of this lens designed to correct for abberations caused by sensors in digital SLRs.
I'm looking to get $155 shipped and paypal fees included for this great lens.
Here is a writeup by B&H:
Sigma's 70-300mm f4-5.6 APO DG Macro is one of several tele zoom lenses. It is a compact Apochromatic tele zoom lens incorporating two Special Low Dispersion glass elements in the front lens group, plus one Special Low Dispersion glass element in the rear lens group, to minimize chromatic aberration.
This Tele-Macro Zoom lens is capable of focusing down to 1:2 (half life-size) reproduction ratio at 300mm focal length with superb optical quality. It also has a switch for changeover to macro photography at focal lengths between 200mm and 300mm. The lens materials used in this product are lead and arsenic free ecological glass.
The improved DG lens design corrects for various aberrations. This lens is specially coated to get the best color balance whilst cutting down on ghosting caused by reflections from the digital image sensor.
