Loco's charge
 
Loco has maintained that I'm taking pics of the 35s5 from the web and
the boat doesnt exist. Stevie has made the same charge after I plucked
a interior shot from the broker website.

This pic above from MY website was taken with my D70s DSLR using the
Nikkor 17-55mm lens...a hunk of glass worth more than Scotty's boat.
Then again, my camera bag also contains the 70-200VR, 80-400VR,
12-24mm, 50mm 1.4, 85mm 1.4 and 105 Micro.
Enough glass to buy Scotty's home and boat with ease!

this...

The best you'd be able to get for the entire set is under 2K.

Are you nuts? I just sold my 1st 85 1.4 for 1200.00 on Nikonians. A
used 70-200 easily brings 1200-1300 on ebay. Nikon lenses hold their
value. I sold my 17-55 for 175 less than I paid! The whole kit is
insured for 9K.

Mooron, you seem to know little about the cost of used lenses. Check
Craigs list or Ebay or even Nikonians. Average depreciation is 15% on a
lens in mint shape. If you can find me a 70-200VR for 400 dollars,
please tell me where so we can go into business! Even an ancient
20-35mm is pulling 500.00 in clean shape.

Here's a typical bid on ebay:

If you sold your lenses cheap, I'm sorry.
