Ebay and my new Nikon 24-70 f2.8

Texas Parrothead · Sep 21, 2011

So i had been on here recently trying to find the best 3rd party lens in the 24-70 f2.8 class. I had purchased a used Sigma 24-70 macro version (non hsm) on ebay and was not terribly pleased with it's low light capability. I was able to return it for a full refund and then figured I just wasn't going to be satisfied unless I had the Nikon version. So after selling a lot of stuff I haven't touched in over 6 years (guns collection was not touched) I was able to raise enough funds to purchase an open stock version of the Nikon from Adoroma this morning for $1614. The salesman told me it was not a return. It was opened in the store to show someone something and they felt they couldn't sell it new anymore. He says it looks perfect and comes with the full 5 year USA warranty. I have 30 days to return it for a full refund if I am not satisfied for any reason. It is supposed to get to me on Monday or Tuesday so now I just need to wait for the UPS truck to arrive. I can hardly wait!!!!!!!
