I'm sure this is the first time I have photographed Chrysotoxum festivum - some call it the the harlequin hoverfly. Got a bonus wasp in the first image.

They don’t sting though do they?
No they don't sting, they just sort of mimic the look.Quote:

it’s a newer lens which cost over £1300 but I’m not sure where to list it as eBay are cnuts.
It’s boxed as new and has very little use.
I would be grateful if you had any advice mate.

Not many places will give you the best price - classified ads in newspapers was once the way to go but nowadays Fleabay is the only medium.
You could try MPB Photographic to see what price they might give you.

£200 - £500 depending on condition - try Facebook marketplace, the issue is the dslr's are being dropped in favour of mirrorless by the major players, although there is some compatibility via lens mounts.
