Opinions needed.
Would you buy a factory refurb lens?
Why/why not?
Thanks,
L

I agree with Mike. I would also want some documentation indicating that the lens was in fact serviced by the manufacturer, (probably not) or by a factory authorized service center which could be a good thing or a bad thing depending on what the repair was.
