Hello.

I'd like to buy a 70-200 GM from an FM user with positive seller feedback, located in the U.S.

I'm looking to buy the lens for $2200 shipped.

Currently, the FE 70-200 GM is in stock and widely available at the following sites:
https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1222776-REG/sony_sel70200gm_fe_70_200mm_f_2_8_gm.html
https://www.adorama.com/iso70200gm.html
http://www.kenmorecamera.com/p-47104-sony-fe-70-200mm-f28-gm-oss.aspx
http://www.abt.com/product/102732/Sony-FE-70-200mm-F2.8-GM-OSS-Lens-SEL70200GM.html
https://www.amazon.com/Sony-70-200mm-2-8-OSS-Lens/dp/B01IDQEQ34/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1490671048&sr=8-1&keywords=200mm+gm
etc

A 70-200 GM was just sold the other day on FM for $2200 shipped @ https://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/topic/1481273/0#13966748

Due to the lens not being in high demand like it once was when it was hard to find, I honestly feel $2200 is more than fair for a used copy. That's just a tad over 15% off retail.

Please let me know the condition, what's included, and any other relevant information.

Thank you.

Well darn. I wish I'd seen that. I just sent a payment to a fellow FM member.

If Adorama is selling a used 70-200 GM in that condition for that price, perhaps I was too generous with my $2200 asking price. From my experience, used lenses usually sell for less on FM than they do on BH / Ado. I assumed $2200 was the best I could do.

I do thank you for letting me know about this.

Take care.

No problem. I almost bought it, but one downside of living in New York is I pay sales tax at B&H and Adorama. Thankfully I was able to score a GM 70-200 for significantly less off of eBay

I have noticed Adorama frequently has a bit better deals on used/open box gear than B&H.
