Although some of the more high end lenses are selling for exhorbitant
prices right now. See the recent thread on the 80-200 2.8 ($2100). The
A* 85 is another example.
The joy of eBay is that a price will seem very high, and you won't see it
often, so when one comes along, you put in an exorbidant bid and win the
damned thing, then have a raft of em come up at half the price over the next
few months. I've had that happen more than once.
