Adorama via eBay offers the factory-refurbished Nikon AF-S Nikkor 24-85mm f/3.5-4.5G ED VR Lens for $299.99 with free shipping. That's $202 under the lowest total price we could find for a new unit elsewhere, although we saw a refurb for a buck less a week ago. It features silent auto-focus operation and image stabilization. A 90-day Nikon warranty applies.
