Re: What does slightly chipped glass produce? (70-200 f/2.8 IS)

i concur with what hotdog321 suggested but you haven't indicated whether you have access to the lens in order to test it to make sure other elements inside are and not out of alignment. also to see how much flare the lens generates! if you have access to the lens and make sure everything is ok then it might be a good value (although you haven't indicated the selling price) also, i think replacing the front element is not prohibitively expensive, as far as i can remember, it is worth a try! good luck.
