I got lucky earlier this year on a used FA 100mm f2.8 macro.  It has three
small 'scars' around the end of the lens from a clamp-on macro flash, but
otherwise in perfect condition.  Only paid $250 US and I couldn't be happier
with it.  If you find one for the right price I recommend it, great for
portraits and macro work.

When I bid on this lens, there was
also an FA 100mm f2.8 macro being auctioned.  I have wanted THAT particular
lens for SO long and I was SO excited to see it, BUT it ended up going for
like $650 and I can buy one new for $850 so I let it go and went with this
one instead.  Still dreaming of the 100mm though!  Until I can afford it the
Tamron 135mm f2.5 will suffice (although it doesn't have macro
capabilities).
