You bought it you should keep it.

From your comments it doesn't sound like you have an appropriate reason for returning the lens. You are the owner, congratulations.

Assuming he purchased from a retailer with a "no questions asked" return policy (most do), any reason of his choosing would be an appropriate justification for a return.

Hmm...That ninnying, control freak attitude -- Do you work for a government agency by chance? I smell bureaucrat.

Sure, he's free to return it, but I think it's legitimate to be concerned when people are buying and returning items so frequently (not the OP so much as many others out there). This increases costs for the manufacturers and retailers, and that added cost is passed along to us. Most times that a lens goes from new to refurbished, it costs hundreds of dollars to ship back, inspect, repack, reship, and sell at a discount.

Who knows, every time someone returns a perfectly good lens, it could add a few cents to the cost of your next purchase.
