- Make sure the caps and warranty card are there
- Check the external body for dings & dents
- Mount on your cam to check for sharpness and focusing

- Check the box seal is still intact.
- Like buying old lens, check glass condition (precaution).

Have fun with your new lens and share your photo ! :)

Hi JiEeEe,

Sorry bro, I'm not able to reply PMs from my office PC. Think it's some stupid PC compatibility issue.

Anyway, what you have stated in your PM is correct.
