Yes, but how do I explain that my lens was bought brand new by my

If you have to involve your friend, you involve them at claim-time
too. Or you don't involve them at all.

Emne: RE: Buying lenses new - having a question

You don't need to. You buy it, with credit card. Your friend collects

Sometimes not as fast as it could be, but very reliable, and the best care
