The price looks very good, to me. Of course, much depends on condition1 However, in addition to all the other advice you've been offered, check that [a] the shoulder stock and grip are included in the price (they aren't always... and can be a bear to find on their own) and [b] whether it is the old style ( bent aluminium bar) or newer style moulded pistol grip. If the older style, you can make a new one... see http://www3.telus.net/telyt/getting_a_grip.htm for details on how I made mine. Good luck! It's a great lens!
