Two similar Tamrons went for around Euro 500 last month (yaBe: 190060444848
Euro 461, and an English one I lost trace off, but it was in very good
condition with 1,4x converter and abour Euro 550 I believe?). However,
optical flaws are punished quite strong in prices I think
My expectation would be that the Tamron SP lenses with their adaptall mount
would easily command perhaps twice what the Sigma with its dedicated mount
would fetch. Your universe of potential clients is so much smaller. Any
distractions in the glass will, in my experience, reduce the price by another
50%
or so. That comes not just from one who has an opinion, but rather from one
who has bought and sold a tremendous amount of camera gear on eBay over the
last few years. If you were keeping any OM gear, perhaps the best thing to do
would be to keep this lens. You might, as others have suggested, offer it to
the list. They are pretty tough and will let you know if your pricing is
off. <[8^) Bill Barber
