<p>[QUOTE="rmpsrpms, post: 2417114, member: 31773"]Actually, the best values are lenses that have such problems. Collectors don't want them, and folks are often loathe to bid on them since they are hard to re-sell. Even if the lens has a bit of fungus or some scratches, these things have almost no effect on the imaging quality of the lens. So if you plan to <i><b>use</b></i> the lens, and don't want to spend much, seek out the problem lenses for best value. Just make sure you can return it if it arrives in worse condition than was described.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
