Deal Details
Wannabe photographer here. After quite a bit of research, I just could not get away from the almost universal recommendation to get the Sigma 18-50mm zoom for my new Sony camera. But all the reviews also talked about getting this lens for under $500, and everywhere I was looking was around $540. And that's *before* tax and shipping...
So although I'm not sure if this is a great deal, it certainly is better than any other option I could find.
I put in an offer at Green Toe. I started with 400 (I know--a lowball) and soon raised it to 450. Still nothing. In the last 4 hours of my offer, I raised it to $480 and it was accepted within the hour. Since this includes tax and shipping, I feel that this is easily the equivalent of getting this lens for under $450.
Just thought I would pass it on, in case anyone else was interested in this lens.

Indeed, that isn't even the totality of my excess with lenses, but I'll stop there.
Given how new I am to this, and how many I already have, I guess I better learn how to take a photo or shoot a video now...
I saw another thread where someone got the A6700 w/ the 18-135 for $1300. But even that lens seems like an older mediocre model that won't ever be a "go-to" lens...
Aaaaaarghh...
