[QUOTE="STM, post: 420032, member: 12827"] I got the lens yesterday and shot a lot with it today. It is sharp as a razor! But here is the rub. KEH sent it to me in a zip lock bag with NO lens caps! Are you freakin' kidding me??? I sent them an email telling them that I have purchased close to a dozen Nikkor, Hasselblad and Olympus lenses from EBay and this is the FIRST one I received with no lens caps. I told them that their auction mentioned nothing about caps or no caps, but a reasonable buyer would assume that the lens came with lens caps. I sent them a message that if they wanted positive feedback from me they better cough up genuine Nikon caps (at least front element). I told them that given KEH's reputation I expected much better. I told them that they are not a fly by night outfit out of China but a very reputable company in the US. I got a message from them saying that their auction did not mention caps, blah, blah, blah but that they would comply with my request. I replied that buying a lens with no lens caps would be like buying a car with rims not NO TIRES. I always put front and rear element caps on my lenses when they are in my gear bag. With 14 Nikkors in my bag, why would you take a chance on damaging glass without one??? Lesson learned here, if you order from KEH on EBay, [I]read between the lines[/I] when it comes to accessories!
