Hey everyone,
I can't believe I'm saying it, but I've too many lenses...
I currently have a Tokina 12-24, 18-55mm kit, Canon 28-135mmIS, Canon 55-200mm USM Mark II, Canon 70-200mm f2.8L, Sigma 70-300 APO II, and Sigma 50-500mm DG EX.
So I've decided to sell my kit, the Canon 55-200mm, and the Sigma 70-300mm APO lens. I'll be using my L lens and the Sigma 50-500mm as my only telephotos and selling my 18-55mm kit lens to justify getting a Tamron 17-35mm XR Di to cover that range. I've always used UV filters to protect my lens and inspect my lenses after each shooting session to make sure there are no dusts. I keep them in my camera bag with caps on and in a cotton sock to protect the barrel. I take festidious care of my lenses and you can ask fellow LA DPC members like miradonnay and Sandman yourself to see how well I take care of my lenses. I think the Sigma 70-300 APO has already been sold to my collegue at work.
1. Canon EF-S 18-55mm EF-S f/3.5-5.6:
Kit lens from my DR bougt in 10/04.
I have always used a UV filter and will also throw in a Sunpak Circular Polarizer in a case, and a Petal type after market hood. No scratches on lens or barrel, in perfect working condition. Would make a nice cheap lens if don't have that range covered.
See the shots I took with it here:

$60 including all caps, $40 of accessories (UV filter, CPL Filter, Lens Hood), and shipping in US sound good?
2. Canon EF 55-200mm f/4.5-5.6 USM II:
Also bought this USA model in 10/04 from Adorama. No scratches on the lens or the barrel. In perfect working condition.
I've the box, plastic wrappers, instructions, USA warranty card, two caps, plus a petal type aftermarket hood, 52mm Sunpack UV filter, and a Sunpack 52mm Circular polarizer in a case.
See the shots I took with it here:

//yido.smugmug.com/gallery/577026
$170 including shipping in US sound good for this $210 lens with $40 of accessories?
I'd rather sell my beloved lenses to fellow DPC'ers here than to some weirdo paying new lens prices for a used lens on eBay, but if I can't sell them here, then I'll end up selling them on eBay.
Send me a private messege if you are interested.
I'll get pictures of the lens on the smugmug site soon.
