Ok, I\'m a complete idiot...I went to box up the lens to get it ready for shipment and managed to elbow it off my desk. If fell about 3 ft to the floor and dented the front filter ring area. Nothing else was damaged but I spoke with Canon Service Center and they said it would be $98 to replace that front ring and do their normal (tune,clean,etc). I\'m going to send it in early this week unless someone wants to purchase it as is (maybe you don\'t use filters often). I\'m dropping the price $100 so that you could do the service later if you so choose.
So...$900 is the current price (+3% for PP).
PS: If you end up purchasing this lens as-is and send it in to Canon and the service is somehow more that the $98 then I\'ll cover whatever difference it is.
