I've been oogling this add for the last few days, seems to good to be true. I'd love to buy,but a seller with no feedback, no reserve and going for silly money(at the minute anyway)is too much of a risk unless I traveled to the UK and pick up by hand. Would you?

I'd nearly contact the person and say that you'll pay cash and collect it, just to see the reaction.

It sounds a bit too good to be true.

It's the old type though, isn't it? No IS, USM or otherwise. The new type is f/4L

Still good value though.

No, not that old. It has USM, no IS though.The previous version would have been an FD lens. sharp as sh*t according to Bob Atkins

A bargain indeed, turns out it was a scammer. I do hope the buyer didn't pay first,doesn't say in his feedback.
