FWIW, Downtown Camera here in Toronto has an ME body only, for $150.  These guys
aren't cheap, but it sounds like your ME is not a bad deal.  I certainly have
heard that Sigma lenses can be very poorly constructed, but if they hold
together, their optics can be pretty good.

If you don't mind me asking, what's the SP package going for?

regards,
frank
