Do/have any of you bought second hand lenses?

Been looking at a sigma 10-20. So far cheapest online was amazon at £363 but the found it second hand but "mint" for £299.

I’ve just ordered mine from Digital Rev for £319, it’s a grey import though so hence the lower price tag. I think I’d sooner get one brand new for a bit more money really, I don’t think it’s a considerable enough of a saving. Plus you have a warranty when new.

I've had two cracking second hand lenses but also bought new from digital rev, tokina 11-16 for 389.

MPB are great, spent about £5k with them over the years, they usually undersale their descriptions, I've had gear I swear could have been brand new from them. 6 month warranty as well so no issues there.

​90% of my gear has been bought second-hand, great way of building a system imo.
