I purchased a 2.8 400mm from KEH a year ago for $1,800. Its an excellent lens. In my experience, KEH sends equipment in better condition than their description.

If 300 hundred mm is enough get one of Nikons sharp lens I have 1 it's a AF 300 mm f4 Ed if . They range from $450.00 - 650.00 on eBay very sharp prime.

The ED versions are superb. The Nikkor at KEH looks like a good value. For $200 or so less, the 400/5.6 Tokina AT-X 400 AF SD APO (also only available used) is at least as sharp from F/8.0 - f/16.0, and is also very well built.
