Fwiw i recently ebayed a good condition Olympus m.zuiko 12-50mm and got £83 + postage. Personally i wouldn't pay $200, let alone $250 on this basis. It was OK, but when i started using primes i never used it, and sold it when i got the 12-40 Pro. I have heard of others who had good experiences with this lens but it wasn't suited to me.

I am planning on moving out of the country this summer, for work, and the it's the reason why I wanted to get a wider lens and versatile if possible. The price is also a big factor because most of my funds will have to go to relocating.

Well when push comes to shove worse I can do is get an Olympus 14-42mm or the first version of Panasonic 14-42mm cheaper.
