Joseph I bought an 85mm A*, the guy was very honest he mentioned a small black speck on an internal element. He told me that he was disapointed when he received the lens as mint from a shop and considered returning it. He didn't and used it for a few years; the lens worked fine. I went ahead and bought the lens despite the < 1mm speck and it is fantastic. A nice little twist is that recently the speck has vanished! Okay it has probably disloged and gone out of view. maybe it will return but maybe it won't.
If you want the lens go ahead and keep it, you might consider negotiating a reduction. All the best Anton __________________________________________________________________________ Freeserve AnyTime - Go online whenever you want for just �6.99 a month for your first 3 months, that's HALF PRICE!
