Wow, I'd say. That's a good price now, let alone four years ago.

That's the best way of thinking. The pictures you'll get now aren't worth trading to wait around for something new.

Good idea to wait for a VR lens, check fredmiranda.com if you haven't been. If I see one I'll let you know. I've used both the 70-200VR and 80-200 AF-S and they're both killer lenses, but once you have the VR on the long end it's hard to go back. I also really miss the extra 10mm on the wide end when I use the 80-200. Can't really lose with either though
