I just purchased the 18-135mm STM for the extra reach as a walk around lens. It's a white box lens from a kit. Paid $292.00 on ebay. You might want to check the white box out. Mine didn't have the warranty with it but neither would a used lens. How much is the used lens you are looking at? If you decide to go the ebay white box route let me know. I was very happy with the vendor I purchased it from. The white box is $250.00 to $300.00 cheaper than lens sold as new with the warranty and box with graphics. The white box is a new lens, it was just taken from a kit where the camera was sold as "body only."

Hi Rick,

Thanks for the advice! I think I will definitely go the white box/ebay route. If you could recommend a seller that would be awesome!

Thanks again,

Sasha
