Poster 'cthahn' has been reminded about that by myself , and others....a number of times. The 'Not Quoting' had caused unnecessary arguments in the past. It's so easy to click-on the 'Quote Reply' tag before posting. Well, it's easy for me anyway!!.

I've bought a number of used lenses from KEH and sold to them as well. Never had a negative experience.

If they make a mistake, they make it right. Nicest used equipment dealer I've dealt with. Used lenses were better than their grading!

You obviously have not used ebay and listened to people who do not know what they are talking about. I buy and sell on ebay and do not have the problem you are talking about.
Well, I have used ebay successfully, but had a terrible experience with Marek Gut, who listed a 80-200 2.8 lens as like new. When I received the lens it was missing a screw on the barrel and did not manual focus. He refused to accept a return, but suggested I have it repaired so I sent the lens to Nikon for repair (~$300.00). When I asked for re-imbursement, he argued that it was too much so I escalated to ebay, who mandated a refund/return, so I was required to return the lens, now in like new condition and was reimbursed my purchase price only. I'm out $300+, he has a lens he can legitimately sell as "like new" for what I paid. (My purchase price was about market(ebay) for the lens/condition.
So, ebay some good, some bad. Maybe better to buy from KEH, sell on ebay and make some extra cash.
