650 Euros :shock:! There is one for sale on Keh.com for $525. At the actual rate for the dollar, that's almost half the price of the one on eBay :-(.

Cheers!

Let's say I buy that lens off KEH

525 USD
+50 shipping (at least 50 dollars since they use UPS or USPS)
=575 USD
+25% tax on the total (item price+shipping, sometimes you have to pay even more, customs might feel like adding import duties)
718,75 USD

On the other hand the lens off Ebay is 650 EURO which is about 1005 USD (and you'd probably add about 20 dollars for shipping). So in this case, the keh lens is still the one I'd go for, but as a general rule, keeping an eye on EU ebay auctions is advisable (especially large countries such as Germany and France) because you avoid taxes.
