Great deal for this lens. I paid double for a grey import last year.

just called them, they wont let me order over the phone and post one out to me - was worth a try!

Don't suppose anyones feeling kind enough to pick me one up if I cover all costs plus the price of a london pint?

Just called them up as i thought being a Londoner i'd pick it up locally and ship it to whoever was interested. However, on calling them up.. found out that it is a second hand lens with no warranty whatsoever

Gonna go down to my local Jessops tomorrow see if they've got it, if so HOT deal, hopefully not just a local deal to your area.
Maybe at this price due to it being an older model? (i.e lacking VR)
