The 85/1.8 is a nice ****trait lens. Had one for a while but sold it off.
I had much the same problem 3 years ago when I was trying to sell off some
equipment to fund the purchase of my 350D kit.
The prices I was being quoted for a mint condition USM 300/4 L from
Jessops
and a couple of other stores in Central London were derisory so I listed
it
on eBay. It sold within 30 minutes of the listing being uploaded and I
received almost twice what I was being offered from the stores (£475
compared to £250). Remember that this was for a current mount that will
fit
any of the EOS film and digital SLR range, not an older FD mount lens!
Unless you sell everything as a kit I would suggest you hang on to them.
You
could probably find a reasonable condition FD mount body for a good price
or
they always look good in a glass cabinet :-)
