[QUOTE="Brian, post: 248588, member: 17621"] Prices on Ebay for the 70~210 F4 (original) are crazy. An unpopular lens quickly taken out of production. The 70~210 F4 Series E is about 1/4th the price, much better build quality, and the same optics. The Series E is AIs. The 80~200 F4 Nikkor Zoom is not much more, under $100. Either of these, and the 70~210 F4~F5.6 also running ~$75 are much better made lenses than the original 70~210 F4. On Ebay, learned to believe anything- but always laugh when unpopular lenses are all of a sudden "Rare and collectible" and 4x what the replacement is going for. [/QUOTE]
