Is anything here a good deal?

May be coming into a small bit of money and I"m desperate for a true macro lens and speedlite. Had a look on KEH and wondered if any of these are worth it. (I'm using a Canon T3) Thanks!

Not bad for the Sigma 105mm Macro and I would say the cheaper of the 550EX flash since it is the same power as the 580

Actually those deals seem a little too good, I would research the vendor before making a purchase.

I buy from KEH frequently and am impressed with them every time I buy something from them. I always feel they send me better than described and their shipping is very fast. Items come well packaged. Their equipment is priced to sell.
I am in no way associated with KEH other than being a customer who is happy with their service.

I have purchased from them and was very happy. Would not hesitate to recommend them.

KEH is a top of the line used (and new) equipment dealer. Just bought an 80-200mm F2.8 Nikkor lens from them. I had ordered what was shown as an older "one touch" design, but was sent a newer "two touch" model. The two touch normally runs a few hundred more. I'm assuming there was a problem on the one I ordered & they upgraded me accordingly. I wouldn't hesitate to buy from them & I have bought a number of cameras/lenses from them over the years. I just wish they had a storefront (they are only about 20 miles from where I live) so that I could browse their inventory, but they only sell online or over the phone...

Well, I went with the Sigma lens and 550ex speedlite (EX+). Should be here next week. After all these comments I'm pretty excited. Let you know how it turns out.
