Hi Phil,
Buying used optics is always iffy espically zooms as they cost alot to have serviced. Sometimes by looking at the pictures and reading the wording of the ad one can get a feel for the overall condition of the lens. When buying a cine zoom I would want to have the option of returning it if after having it checked out by a qualified technician you are not happy with it. If I ever get back to the U.K. we'll have to hoist a pint or two.
cheers,
