i think it's better to wait couple months to sell your lens when used buyers accept the new price in the market.

the 2nd hand market is a little chaos now.

i have my sigma lens for sale too, but i will wait couple more months.

It's funny because I did an inventory of my stuff a little while ago, and found that I have an unhealthy amount of gear. For someone who does not make a living with the gear, it's boarder on insanity.

1D Mark II
30D
Panasonic G1

Leica R -- 35/2, 90/2

Carl Zeiss (and Jena) -- 28-70 Vario-Sonnar, 35mm f2.8 Distagon, 45mm f2.8 Tessar pancake, 50mm f1.4, 60mm f2.8 Planar-S Makro, CZ Jena 80mm f1.8, CZ Jena 200mm f2.8

Canon -- 2x FL 55mm f1.2, FD 55mm f1.2 SSC, few other FD primes

Minolta -- Rokkor-X PG 58mm f1.2, 58mm f1.4, MD 50mmf 1.7

Pentax -- SMC Takumar 17mm f4, SMC 24mm f3.5, SMC 35mm f2, SMC 55mm f1.8, SMC 85mm f1.8. I had a monster SMC 500mm f4.5 at one point.

Other M42 -- Seriously I don't know how many I have, but at least half dozen 50-58mm f1.4, plus some zoom, some other primes.

Plus a few Canon auto focus lenses.

Time to trim down, I think.

These are the lenses that keep me with Canon! They probably will go to my grave with me, along with the 200mm f1.8L

Since I've never made a nickel off photos and don't plan to anytime soon, it's hard for me to buy the expensive stuff, but I've definitely noticed the two lenses I use the most are the two that cost me the most.

Have:
- Xsi w/ Grip
- Ti film body
- Canon 50mm 1.4
- Canon 18-55 Kit IS
- Canon 55-250 IS
- Canon 100mm 2.8 Macro
- Sunpak PZ4000 flash
- Minolta X-700
- Minolta 50mm 1.7 & 2.0

Want:
- 7D
- 70-200 2.8L IS
- Tamron 17-55 2.8 VC
- 430ex II
