Thanks Phil, I intend to do just that! The lens was first released mid 2017. I've had mine for a couple of years now and as you know it's the only lens I use 99% of the time. Mine was $860 from a local camera shop and now the greedy bastards want $1100 for a 4 year old lens. I can't get over the greed in this new country I live in. In the US they are only $650 (AU$870).

Ah matey .... wot about the ol' "set whatever price you think the market will bear" ? business

That's the way of the world today Phil, unfortunately. When I owned my retail stores the rule was, get it in and get it out. It worked and my business grew steadily until it got too large to handle. I would rather buy for $10, sell for $11 and make $1 on 20 items, than try and sell for $20 and sell 1. I placed a lot of emphasis on turnover and making my customers happy, than I ever did of just being greedy.
