AF-S Nikkor 18-55mm VR SOLD
AF-s Nikkor 55-200mm SOLD
These are the kit lenses that came with my D5000. They are in very good condition. Calumet Photography says they sell for $90 each. I will sell for $80 each. Have paypal account.
Thanks for looking.
Can you send me a pic???? what is wrong with it? how long have you had it? why only 80? im not complaining just wondering why so low.

I sent a couple of pictures to your email address -- if you don't see them, let me know. May have gone to your spam blocker.
I have had the lenses since May 2010 (came with the camera).
I am selling them because I bought a Nikkor 18-200mm zoom. It covers the range of both lenses, so I can travel light.
There is nothing wrong with them. I think the price has two do with a couple of factors -- first, supply and demand. There have been a number of these on the market, because lots of people buy the camera kit and then decide to upgrade. The other factor is that the optics are probably not as good as Nikon's more expensive lenses -- that's why they sell them in a kit -- keeps camera kit cost down.
Calumet Photo told me their retail value is $90, and that pretty much tracks with what I have seen on completed sales on Ebay. I can trade them with Calumet, but for a lesser price (because they have to mark them up to sell them). So I am hoping to sell them through UHH and give someone a good deal.
If you have other questions, please let me know. Thanks for asking.
I have taken some very nice pictures with them, though I don't think I have used them to their full advantage -- I still have a lot to learn. I am a hobbyist, and I want to be able to travel light and keep things simple.

What is the Fstop on the 55-200mm?
The 18-55 is VR, the 55-200 is not.

Please note: it is a 55-200, not 300. And yes, I do still have it.

Also, please note: the 55-200mm DOES NOT HAVE VR.
What can you buy for $160 ? At least hang on to the 18-55 it's light and handy.I use mine all the time to back up the 55-300vr
Thanks for the input, but I now have a nikkor 18-200, so I am covered. Want to sell both.
