Sticky Tokina 28-70

I just got this killer deal on the Tokina 28-70 f/2.8- I bought it used from Adorama for $99! I was really

pumped- I just it today, and optically it really is great- I haven't gotten to in depth yet to determine how

sharp it really is- but I noticed that the lens was hard to zoom in and out. I have the Tokina 12-24 which I

bought brand new, and it zooms very smoothly. The lens is pretty beat up around the edges- but are there

self repairs that can be done to make the internal zoom more smooth? Thanks!

Typical turnaround time is approximately two weeks. If this is a warranty issue, then you will not hear from us, we will simply repair the lens and return it. If it is not a warranty issue, then we will contact you with a repair estimate before any work has begun.
