Unfortunately, they are going for around $550.00 in mint condition on ebay and CL. Best of luck to you.

Jake the one you posted is the starting bid.
If you scroll down you will see several in the $850 to 900 range.

Look in the sold history. I have seen these lenses "NEW" at the price you referenced. I'm saving my $$$ for a new 150-600 contemporary which have been advertised at around $850-900 range. I, in no way was disparaging the hogger or his lens, and do indeed hope he gets the price he want's for his lens. It's simply a generation old, and just high I believe for the 150-500. Just my .02 cents.

Well I have not researched this lens so don't know how they have been trending.
I don't normally pay much attention to other lens I shoot nothing but Canon.
About 8 years ago I got interested in shooting Eagles I bought a 600 F4 but this winter I bought a new version
L series 600mm F4 and I have a L series 1.4 TC that lives on it in the winter because even the 840mm is too short and I find myself cropping a lot.
I have a window mount and use my car as a blind while shooting eagles so I do not have to try to hold this beast.

If I manage to get close enough I use a Canon 100-400 with a 1.4 TC that give me a 140-560 zoom this works well for several opportunities and can be hand held. :thumbup:
