Could I get a bit of pricing advice if you can please?

I've got a Canon zoom lens EF 70-300mm which has never been used and is far too big and pro for me. i can barely take a photo on my phone let alone a proper job. its a few years old but as mentioned only been on the box since purchase apart from testing on canon camera body when first received as a gift.

Before you sell it check the IS system works.

Also, if you don't know, the EF system is for full frame as well as APSc. I picked up a 55-250 efs used a few times for less than £100. Looked at a few IS EFS lens and found the IS didnt work with either a 400d or 450d.

thanks for the advice. how can I tell if the IS works? why would it not be working?

and I have no idea what this means!
