    I missed out on a perfect nikon 80-200mm f2.8 a couple of months ago that went for €240!:o
    That lens isn't worth the risk imo, even if they would ship internationally.

    I had one of these lenses once and the blades tended to stick a bit, Jamed up totally in the end and cost €110 to get it fixed and serviced. I would say buyer beware

    Really?Nearly every photography purchase I've made on there(quite a few now)have been UK only,And they just added a bit extra to the P&P and it was fine.
