Re: scratched lens

From a purely 'sales' perspective, you need to show him the loss in value from the scratch - simply showing the scratch doesn't quantify anything.

Try and shoot it directly into the sun to get a flare off it (as mentioned above), and send him that image - it'll be obvious why the lens is worth even less, and puts you in a strong negotiating position.
