Item is in good condition, with a tiny (and I do mean "I almost missed it" tiny) amount of dust inside in the front element. IQ isn't affected at all, and it functions just as well as it did from day 1 (~2021). Comes with lens hood, front/back caps. Hood has signs of light wear, no cracks or major scuffs. Lens has always had a clear/UV filter on the front to keep dust/possible dangers away from the front lens element. No scratches on either front or back of lens. Small crease on the front of the box in the middle from when it was kept in storage (see picture), but isn't torn, and doesn't prevent it from holding shape. I don't use this lens anymore since I have another tele that I use full time, so it has stayed in storage for the better part of a year and a half. I tested before listing it to make sure it still works (it does, of course).
