I got this one 2nd hand, it looks like new, I am very happy with it.From what I can gather, Sigma discontinued them because sales were slow, they are a big and heavy lens, about the same size as a 70-200, so most people were buying a 70-200 instead. [USER=16844]@Lawrence[/USER] bought one a few months ago, he got his from the US, because he couldn't get a new one in New Zealand, and he didn't want to deal with the Russians.</blockquote>
