I agree they were really under-valuing that lens. I just did a quick eBay search and the cheapest da* 16-50 on offer was $450 US. The rest averaged around $600 and many were much higher than that. On Sun, Jan 8, 2017 at 12:28 PM, Charles Robinson wrote: > I agree

Not surprising. Your expectation is based on what you paid for it new. They're thinking about how much they can sell it for, and they're not going to offer more than half that (or less), because they have to cover their overhead and still make a profit. K5 with a kit lens *might* bring in $450
