ouch! Bought it originally from there I think.

could always just try and use TP abit more, they get onto it if you're just trying to boost your post count but it would be easy over afew weeks :) unless you want it gone imminently?

one things for sure, don't bother trading it in at wilkinson cameras in southport, they offered me £150 for a 75-300mm and a 50mm 1.4, i then went on to sell the 50mm on its own for £180 :lol:

I'd offer to post it for you but given the massive trouble Whittie got into I'll not bother :lol:

Trouble is with ebay you'll lose 10% or more - fuck that.

bugger, im 86 posts short of selling on tp :( after being registered for 3 years :lol:

Best new UK price is £750 via Amazon.

Good one here for £680 - http://www.talkphotography.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=318412

I'd say £650 on a forum and keep the bright mark quiet (rightly or wrongly - hardly anyone shoots that narrow surely). If theres any similar problems with any of my lenses I've never found it as I don't use much beyond F11.

Hi. I've got this Canon 17-55mm F2.8 USM IS lens -

Im thinking of upgrading to a 5D mk2 body but which my lens wont fit so I would sell it, however there is a small mark on the glass inside the lens which shows up on light coloured photographs at f18-22 as a little dark smudge (bright skys, white studio etc) Its never bothered me as I rarely shoot at that end of the aperture scale and on the odd occasion I do it would get blobbed out in PS no problems.

theres one on ebay at the moment which Im going to keep an eye on -

Does anybody have any thoughts on what mine would be worth?
