The Canon 18 - 55 Kit lens

A Sigma 70 - 300 Macro APO (non DG) with a small chip in the front element. Not noticable till you bump the Aperture up.

Canon 75 - 300 USM ( hardly used)

Sigma SA-7 SLR Camera with Sigma 28 - 80 HF and 70 - 300 macro Non APO & Sigma infra Red remote release

Trying to get shot of the old so I wondered if anyone knew what prices I should expect to sell for..

im not looking for a mint but just an Idea what to let them go for would help loads.

no way! well the Canon zoom is in mint condition and I believe it is the mkIII. the kit lens had a few months use and was quicky replaced by the 17 - 40 L so thats in good condition as far as I can tell.

Yeah the Sigma Zoom is a shame to had suffered damage. It would be a great lens to get cheap and get fixed. If you use it at 5.6 its great!

They are going on the bay so I will see.

providing photos of the physical damage, and the IQ the lens can deliver with that damage, will garner you more bids. Nobody really wants a lens with a chipped element, no matter how small - but if you show them that it really aint that bad, then they're more likely to want it.

Yeah exactly. I am going to photograph the damage with a macro lens.

Is the Canon 75 - 300 USM the mk III version? I'm looking around for a cheap 300mm lens so could be interested. Although, not sure I could afford it this month. Got a stag do abroad on Thu that is taking a large chunk of my cash this month

I think it is the markIII
