In Houston, they tend to have that lens in stock at the bigger Best buys in the more expensive parts of town but I have never ever seen it in the viewable locked displays. Usually they are in the back. The employee and I looked into it once it rang up differently than where it was. It was in a locked container in the nikon section. My assumption is that the Sigma was a Nikon mount. The price was half the amount for the Nikon one. Either it was a very used, damaged lens or a very beat up display item. I couldn't believe it for a new item. One of the employees must have put it there by mistake once the sigma was sold. It would have been impossible for anyone else to have done so due to the locks. My understanding has always been that the entire information must match to a T, especially the SKU. Though I wasn't completely informed on the topic, I feel that I had at least that much correct. I was curious to see what it would ring up for and why. Though I could have tried harder, it wouldn't have felt right. Especially since I would have had an idea that not all matched. If it all matched, then I wouldn't have felt bad about it. Thank you everyone for your opinions and experiences. I have never came across something like this with such a big price tag. Lesson well learned.</blockquote>
