Nikon AF-S Nikkor 17-35mm f/2.8D ED-IF Lens

If you're reading this, than you know that this is one of Nikon's finest lenses ever made.  The color, contrast and sharpness is the best I've seen from this particular model and the focus is tack sharp.

Best of all - THE AF-S MOTOR DOES NOT SQUEAK.  AT ALL. 

Includes - the lens, front and rear lens cap and HB-23 lens hood (aftermarket).

Condition - 9.5 - there is a very minor scuff on the side, as the last picture shows.  This is purely cosmetic and does not affect performance whatsoever.  The lens is perfectly calibrated and tack sharp with lightning quick autofocus speed.

The glass is 100% clean.  No haze, fungus, dust, small animals or pocket universes.  The blades are (to coin a greatly overused cliche) "oil free and snappy".

Warranty - This is a U.S. version of the lens.  Since I purchased the lens used, I have no idea on warranty status.  I do not have the original packaging or hard case.

Shipping - Free shipping in the U.S.!  I will also ship internationally, please use the shipping calculator to verify cost.  I know you want your purchase fast and I don't play around with shipping times.  The lens will ship within 24 hours or sooner.

Return policy - This is an outstanding lens with no surprises, no nonsense, but with a high ticket item like this, I don't want to see "buyer's remorse" become an issue, so returns are only accepted if there's something inacurate in my description.  Everything I describe is exactly what you'll receive.  As a buyer myself, I absolutely hate the 'gotchas' and 'I forgot to tell you' that I see on Ebay so often and I guarantee a smooth transaction.

Communication - I respond to all emails quick.  As a business owner, I treat my Ebay auctions like I do my business transactions and I expect the same from my buyers.

Payment - Please pay as soon as possible upon winning the auction, or at least respond to emails.  We all check our email several times a day, so when I do not hear back from a buyer, it's disconcerting.  I WILL BE LEAVING TOWN ON NOVEMBER 15.

Insurance - The lens will be shipped with insurance, so if there's damage in transit, I'll file a claim and it will be sorted.

If you would like sample shots taken from the lens, I'm more than happy to provide them to not only display the lens' perfect focus and clarity, but to show the immense depth of field you'll get.
