Mike,
About 4K Aus (and I think I have seen it as low as $3700). I payed $1800 which I reckon is very reasonable for that lens given its excellent condition. I am a bit dubious about buying second hand lenses but this was local so I could verify it was in mint condition. You have to watch for fungus and similiar damage in lenses especially in a humid climate (I've been caught before!).
I would have liked to have picked up one of the older Canon 300 2.8 non-IS but haven't seen one of those for a while. I suspect the Canon will be better wide open a f2.8 but expect to pay 3K + for one in OK condition.
